Okay gang, I'm bored sitting here in VA (Bubba and Richie where y'all at lol) and browsing through 1/4 mile times with the mods different members have done for power increases and whatnot and am wondering.......
What is everybody's general opinion on what my old Niner will run in the 1/4 mile once I get the engine build done, especially if I'm realistically pushing 450 hp at the crank and, with a very beefed up tranny with a stall converter in the 2500-2800 rpm range? I just keep going back to Bubba, since he has a Niner as well and ran a 13.46 cranking out 380 hp (pun intended), with his Saine tranny, 3,000 billet stall, and all his other mods. I'm thinking that I should turn at least a little bit of a faster time with the additional power I'll be pushing; around a 13-flat would be very nice depending on my reaction time. I can only hope since I've never ran the track before......
To recap, here's the very basic build/mod list again:
-Stroked from 360 CID to 408 CID.
-Cam with a 226/234 or possibly even a 258/268 profile.
-Aluminum Heads.
-1.6 Roller rockers.
-Hardened racing push rods.
-Coated Headers and full, "X" dual exhaust system.
-CAI.
-Beefed up 46RE Race/Performance Transmission and Stall Converter in 2500-2800 range.
-SCT Tune after build complete.
