OK, let's see here. I'd be able to really give you my advise on your car with track numbers that include everything from 60, 330, 1/8th, 1000, 1/4 etc. And as for lossing just 3 tenths from traction- its a lot more than that. For example, with an intake, 65mm T-body, headers, offroad x pipe, mufflers, 3.73's, and pulleys, I was running 14.3 at 96.5mph on street tires. This was with 2.08 60's on 245-50-16 H rated kelly tires. This was accomplished with a 2500rpm launch with clutch slippage to negate wheel spin. With the nitto DR's, I cut my 60's to 1.91's, and hence dropped 5 tenths from my ET and gained 2mph! I went to 13.83 at 98.55mph. With the DR's I was able to launch it hard and get my heavy a$$ moving. When I first hit the strip with my new setup I ran 13.5 at 103.Xmph. With timing and fuel pressure tuning I got it to 13.2 at 105.X. With the EEC-Tuner I have now run a 12.92 at 106.85mph. I shift at 6000rpm's on the stock tach, though with the stock cam I might shift at 5500-5800 if I were you. Your setup seems solid enough to get you into the 13's. JFYI- my car weighs 3690 in race form with me in it, and stock, I G-Tech'd it at a 15.1 at 93mph, it actually ran 15.2 at 90 at the track stock.
