73 Duster build named Fred

OK I didn't realize that. Yes, if he's gotta get his tuned-up, he should aim higher in stall. I'm not sure that'll get him into the 9's but I'd guess the weight being just over 2800? so if there's 575HP somewhere it can get there. If over 2900 then he might need more parts.
Loaner converter flashed at 5500 and validated my theory. It has also helped me to decide to go with around 6000-6200 on my re-stall.

The goal all along was to get this combo into the low 10's.... 10.20's to be exact. Although I don't have the timeslip yet, I think I am already there. Getting the right converter in the car, getting the tuneup just right and maybe even taking some weight out of the car should help get it into the 10.0's

Only reason I bought the nitrous setup was because it was only $400 and I only planned to use it if my car wasn't close to my goals. As soon as I realized I was there and got an offer for $600 on the kit, I sold it.

9's would be great but I don't expect to get there this season. If I get lucky and do click off a 9, I'll have to make changes or get kicked out. lol
