I finally have 500 miles on my new engine so I'm going to the strip tonite. Anyone care to predict my et/mph

Specs:
1969 Camaro Standard coupe
-Goodwrench 350 (249hp) with performer intake and 600 edelbrock carb (cam specs are .390/.410 195/202)
-TH350 stock convertor and valve body
-Hooker 1-5/8 headers into 2-1/2 Flowmaster with the crossflow muffler.
-2.73 peg leg 10 bolt
-F70-14 Redline tires

I figure mid 16's; if it goes 15.999 I'll be a happy camper.

I think you may do a little better than that. With my 240(est) HP 327ci, I went 15.3 with a 3.08 open rear. It was only 3260 racewight though.

Ill guess 15.2 at 92mph

Thanks Guys

The best run in hot humid weather with my daughter riding shotgun:
R.T. .816 (i'm a little rusty)
60ft 2.437
E.T. 15.926
MPH 86.421 (out the end in second gear at 5000rpm)

Overall I'm graemlins/hurray.gif
The car just kept going quicker and faster with each run

The 86mph lead me to beleive that Rich is pretty close. I feel the car is capable of mid 15's with some tuning and some decent conditions.

Thanks Again
