70 cuda 440 906's purple 590 4.56 gear 727 mvb 325/50 e.t. street radials. car is a little lighter than a stock e-body,and I'm overweight. 1.679 60 foot. 11.582 @ 114.18 Thanks to RBDuster and FY1TA. I thnk there is more in car but, need serious suspension work. Opinions?
1.66 60 ft 11.489 @ 114.91 yesterday. Maybe a .30something on a good track like Indy in 2 weeks?

nice run, what stall? probably got more in it. Do you have a pinion snubber? I cut some 1.60/60 foots w/ stock springs and a snubber. Did you load the convert up or leave a idle?

yes on the snubber. No idea on the converter maybe FY1TA will chime in its his.Leavin at about 2k, all the tires would take.

Thats not bad at all. My old eng ran a best of 11.49 @ 116 with a best 60 of 1.57. That was on SS springs with no snubber and that was on a good day. I think you have more in it if you can work the 60's down in the low 1.60's to high 1.50's. Good luck with that sweet car. Ron
