awesome!! What kind of rwhp did it take to make that trap speed? Did it take much work to get that 1.54 60 foot? Do you have qa1's?

[Bruce]

Very nice. Congr on the 10s. I am curious why your mile are kinda low? should in the 127+ mph. Just a thought.

[lisoundsvette]

on the dyno the car makes 497 hp. and 542 tq. those ofcourse where the best readings i got back in august.
as far as my 60ft times my suspension is factory stock all i did was disconnect the front sway bar put on the street slicks with about 15lbs pressure and launched the car at about 1800 rpm.
my mph should be a bit higher but my 2nd to 3rd shift needs to be reprogramed.. i bounced off the rev-limiter about 4 times till it shifted into 3rd.

after breaking 3 dana 36's with 3.73 i switched to a dana 44 w/3.54 and so far so good. the only way to stay together.

can you post more details on your engine? Our setups seem pretty similar other than your stall converter.
