13.6 with a 2.0 r/t at 101.12 for my first run then it just got WORSE! i ran high 14 then high 15 then a 13.8.
BALD tires in the rear at 25psi and i mean BALD.
Stock 3.08 open rear
Stock 700r4 converter

My next mods are drag radials a 10 bolt 3:42 rear and a 2400-2600 stall. Im hoping to break 12's in the spring with just that stuff ^.

What were the MPH's? What was the car doing as it was running worse or just spinning?

The first time was not too shabby....throw up the build again. IIRC, it wasn't like it was an ideal set-up for the stock stall auto and 3.08 rear....so not too shabby considering you were still fighting for traction.

I have my stock 3 series/4 channel 10 bolt out of my '01 SS with 3.42's sitting in my garage, sans axles.
Only has about ~25K on it.

with my setup as si im looking at a 2500 stall, a 3000 would probally be too big but shoot me a pm with more info and a price. As for the rear bro im in Jersey so shipping would make even a GREAT DEAL worthless.

13.600 at 101.12 with a 2.013 60'
I babied it off the line on this run so I wouldnt spin on my bald tires...then it ran through the track like a bat out of hell into third thats when the car starts to drag third and forth in a 700r4 suck.
Hopefully a shift kit and bigger stall would help that problem out right?

sounds like it ran close to what we were guessing it would run.
nice job,now get some tires and a convertor,it will hit 12s no problem
