I've taken it to the drags a few times with the stock block setup and the oem 3.5 rear end. Results were not good, traction was no where to be found. Now I have a 3.3 rear end and am going to try some 275 BFG drag radials.

Greddy.

A good basic setup would run ~$10k.

That was taking the motor out. It won't got back in for ~10 days. Then we will get a good baseline tune on the car, drive it for a couple weeks and then go for a big number run.

Tim, you and your car are a legend. Can't wait to see what you can extract from it.

LOL, thanks

The sedan fuel pump outlet and hard pipe are not the same as the coupe so I could not upgrade my return kit to a stage 2, that will limit my output. After the base tune is on the car for a couple weeks we'll see what it can make. I would like to see ~500-525 on crappy AZ 91 and high 500's on C-16.

If I don't make over 500 we are going to try to adapt the AAM stage 3 fuel system to my sedan. Or make something like it...

I'm sure I'll get well over 500 on C16. The goal was low to mid 500's on pump.
