My street car is a 1970 B body full interior 440 with around 10.5-1 compression eddy aluminum closed chamber heads (stock no port work), adjustable rockers, lunati voodoo 60305 cam (if i remember right), Weiand high rise alumium intake, Hooker competition headers out to 2 1/2 inch exhaust and a 750dp holley. Transmission is a 727 auto with 3000-3500 stall cheetah reverse manual valve body all been rebuilt recently with a 4.2 lever. Rear gear in a 8 3/4 suregrip is a 3.55 running a 28 inch tire will be running slicks at the track.
This is my street car however i will run it at the track on occasions wondering what to expect on both the 1/8th and the quarter mile.
Thanks in advance

I would say you should be running deep 12's in the 1/4 if everything is tuned well. If you were to change to a more aggressive gear like a 4.10, header cutouts and an 850cfm carb you should be in the 11's.

Thanks everyone i will most likely go to header cut outs before track season and had thought about steeping up to 3.91 gears or so but i really like the highway rpms right now vs what they would be as this is primarily a street driver

Thr 28 inch tires and the 3.55s are going to hurt your times period. A 25-26 inch tire would give you the times and still allow the 3.55s. Myself I would go with the 4.10s or 4.30s
