Tod i shift my 67 camaro manually..don't ask me why i just like it.. i am sort of twisted i guess....in a 4 speed mind kind of way LOL

i know you said you was wanting to run some 5.90 range..so i got to comparing your numbers with my 67 camaro when i had my 511 ci..it ran 5.98/5.99 on motor here is the run down so you can compare your set-up..maybe you and i both can pick up something off this.

my car was 3004 lbs with the 511ci with me in it race ready
33 inch tall tire with 500 gear
left at 4,000rpm
i shift by the feeling in my a$$ but i would assume 7200 rpm on the recall

as you can see from my slip below

1.32 60 ft
3.86 330 ft
5.994 et
114.14 mph

you will notice our 60 fts are real close ( yours a tad better)..my 330 ft is a tad better....but my mph is 5 mph better with a 1/10th quicker :idea: :roll: ...i find this very interesting


tell me about you car weight,gear ,leaving rpm etc.....

i am also posting a Video of my 5.99 pass . also a Time slip
