Thanks!!!

I'm running a 3.00 upper and 8# lower. You'll just have to figure out how much boost you want to make to figure out what pulley/plies to buy. For ever 1/4" smaller you go on the blower pulley you will gain 2#'s. With lowers its pretty simple. 8# = 8lbs, 2# = 2lbs.

My fuel system is 63# injectors, Fore rails, Aeromotive regulator, twin GT pumps, stock/modified hat.

My SRA is a Mach 1 SRA with 31 spline axles, locker, 3.73's, UPR uppers/stock lowers, Strange 10-ways, Eibach drag springs, airbags, Mach 1 swaybar, ARP studs.

[VenomSVT03]

OP, which settings do you have your Strange struts/shocks set at?

 

[03rd SVT]

If 10 was the stiff setting I've got mine on 7. I also run 8lbs in my airbags.

 

[03rd SVT]

I know there's more out there.......post up fellas!!!

 

[JSTBCUZ]

I wish I could post times, best I've had so far is a 12.09 but everything on that run suffered, ie: 1/8 and 60 foot was like 2.08. These cars are hard to launch! And with that run it was my last because mine's a vert.

I should be up there with you guys damnit, I need a cage!

How do you guys launch? I have a 2 step, but havent really tried it much. I launched a couple times at 3500 on slicks, but the track was packed and I didnt get to make many passes and adjust. It was falling on its face on launch...

I normally leave between 4500-5000 depending on track prep. I've even taken it to 6k when the track was really hitting.

Best thing for you to do is don't make a full pass until you feel the car leave hard. That way you can make adjustments and not have to wait on the car to cool down. Try starting at about 4000, and if it bogs then just let out and coast down the track. Get back in the lanes and bump the two step up and try again. If it bogs again, just do the same as above. If it leaves hard then let it rip.

You might have to make adjustments every time you hit the track depending on how well its prepped. Once you get it down you will be able to tell how to adjust it after making your first pass every time out.

Good luck!!!

I'm fighting the temptation of throwing spray back on my car. I want to run a 9 with the 6-speed/boost only, but it just isn't working out. I'm going back to the track in February to try again.....SMH.
