Not too shabby at all. I did a 15.4 with an intake and exhaust with stock tires. I was hoping to do a 14.55 or so after my 19% pulley addition.

Looking at your your speeds, can I assume that you shifted into 4th right before the finish? When I did my runs, I left it in 3rd even though I hit the rev limiter and got better times that way.

I'm assuming this was at PRP....I was there last summer, at the time I had intake, exhaust, and sticky 15" tires (stock pulley).....I was running 14.8's that day.
Your run is pretty respectable, but I think you still have some more there....

To make 1320' in 13.5 sec: light wheels, good tires, 2500 lbs (including you), good launch, quick shift,
and I would say, you have to have ~200 whp.

Just my 2 cents.

I'm hoping with the new jesus head, cam, and 19% pulley you'll see these cars pulling low, low 14s and definately dabbling in the 13s.

rhubbard,

I have heard nothing but good things about the jesus head, so that might be a good possability with sticky tires and a cooper being lean to the bone.

I'd sure hope so....if my intake, exhaust and 15% pulley was good for a 14.2 on runflats, those real mods better be in the 13's.
