I'm wanting to know if my car will short time in the 1.60's now. I'm putting 256 rwhp and 302 rwtq corrected. I will be on et streets on v6 wheels. Suspension mods are lakewood 90/10's, fox body 4 cylinder springs, front sway bar delete, x2c upper and lower control arms, i have stock shocks out back, quad shocks deleted, built 31 spline rear end, and eibach sportlines in the rear. I have a 4.10 and on the stock clutch.

Everything is on the car except control arms and 4 cyl springs which will be put on tuesday or wednesday.

My previous best short time was 1.82 on 17 inch dr's before upper and lower controls, with eibach sportlines on the front, so 4cyl springs are being added and 26 inch et streets.

Thanks
Josh

Can you explain what that means. The springs and control arms are not worth the time?

You can hit 1.6s if you had long tubes.

I'm running the 31 spline frpp trac-lok. Its holding up so far, been dumping at 6000 rpm's. My friend had the frpp trac-lok launching on nitrous with 4.30 gears on et streets and it held up. So it should be fine. You can't beat the price on them if you buy it from www.gefracing.com . Plus if you trash it, its only like $60 in parts to rebuild it.
