1/4 mile estimate

[94snake]

i have a 68 mustang and im dropping in a blown 408. it was estimated ill have 650-700 rwhp. my car weighs roughly 2900 lbs. if i maintain good traction, what would be my estimated ET.

675 at the flywheel should be about 560 at the wheels (675X.83). Plugging that and 2900 lbs. into the analyzer says 10.08 @ 135. That's probably a good ball park figure assuming good suspension, tires, and driving.

He stated that it will have an estimated 650-700rwhp. RWHP=rear wheel horsepower, not flywheel hp.

Missed the RWHP denotation. My bad. 675 rwhp and 2900 lbs. into the analyzer would be 9.47 @ 143. The analyzer uses track weight though, so it includes driver, fluids, etc. for a total weight. So if the 2900 is dry vehicle weight without the driver, the et/trap speed would be a hair slower on the analyzer.
