What ET should this combo run in the 1/8
74 nova around 3200lbs 383 12.6 Dart 215 heads 550/571 lift cam 256/268 @0.50 advertised 292/302 solid lift. The car has a TH350 with 4000 stall and 4.56 gear on alky. The car has been 7.32 but I think it should run quicker. Do you think this sounds correct or should it be faster?

if its 500 hp it should run 7.2 or so. did i read right? 12.6 motor on alchohol? or e 85? anyways depending on your suspension set up you might be about right. how much hp do you think your motor makes? if its making more then yeah it should be faster.

With a 26 Tall Tire your Ok with the 4.56,what does it go accross the Stripe @ RPM 's?
There MIGHT be a tenth more left,but with the COMBO you have its VERY Close!
What to go Faster,BBC!

The motor turns about 6,000 at the finish line and shift at 6500. Iam thinking about adding more converter to see if that helps a little but I don't know if it will be worth the cost.

How much and what size is the Converter?
I would think a 9" around 48-5000.should be Good.
