    Hmmm. Mid 12's..nice runs. What was the DA? Or the temps? It looks like there's room for better 60's for street tires (I was right around that on my last outing)...Have you dynoed after the addition of your heads, cam and headers?

    Yeah, my 60' SUCKS! 26" tall drag radials are going to come soon! No dyno numbers yet.

    Here is the track I ran at.

    http://www.noproblemraceway.com/dragstrip.htm

    I am sure you guys are better than me at figuring out the DA and corrected times.

    First run @ 6:19 pm
    Second run @ 6:25 pm
    Third run @ 6:41 pm

    Very nice headers. I would definitely recommend them.

    I think I am going to have to get some of those Bogarts!

    Nice runs Eddie.

    Now go get some 1/2 shafts and DR's so you can be in the 11's. :D:rockon:

    You've got enough MPH for some 11.70-11.80 passes. The GTO runs 11.75 at 114 pretty consistantly. Get some M/T drag radials on there...

    What happened to change your mind about the AR headers? Last we talked you were singing a different tune? Answer via PM if you want.

    I put a set on my car. They work great and fit great, so now I can recommend them.

    ARH are top choice for LX's, and KOOKS are still top choice for JEEPS.

    Might have helped to be running closer to 25-28 in the rears....
    Fronts..... you want to keep high for less rolling ressistance.
    Did you stay out of the water/bleach box? Just a quick dry burnout...

    Stay out of the liquids in the "burn-out box" when running stock tires.....go around it.
