[QUOTE="jsimmonstx, post: 14959392, member: 137803"] carbed 427/tremec s197 on regular street tires: The three passes I was able to make: 13.2335 @ 117.8mph - 60-ft 2.4210 13.3929 @ 96.59mph - 60-ft 2.1076 13.2358 @ 117.6mph - 60-ft 2.4134 I suppose that ain't too bad for my first time at a drag strip since 1985 in a car that ain't setup for that kind of racing. I was lined up for my 4th run when the car started backfiring through the carb. Towed it home (no tools to fix it at the track) and found that the #2 intake rocker arm had come loose and the associated push rod is juuuuust slightly bent. With better tires, this would be an 11-second car. With Nitrous, 10 seconds. [/QUOTE]
