was spinning all the way thru 1st gear today at 17.5 psi in the old F1's. best run was a 13.48 and my last run i hit a 2.08 60' :rolleyes: 13.57 @ 104.80 mph. before this run the best MPH was 104.65 and today she was pulling good mid to high 103 mph all day. so if i can get a run on a friday night with good DA and about 45 degrees i'm sure she'll break a 12 sec run and hopefully 105-106 MPH.

i need a set of 315/17's DR's or 275/17's DR's anyone have a set they want to get rid of cheap?
we'll see when i get back from Europe end of March.
 
I might have a set of 275 nittos with a little bit of life left on them

cool let me know. i can't get them till april due to a trip i'm taking next week.

i think with some ET Streets hooked up to it she'll pull the 12 second run. i got my eye on my friends. he was pulling his ET Streets off his low 11 sec LS1 Z/28 and putting on ET Drags. he said he'll let me borrow them one night and bring them to the shop so i can see if they will fit. 15" rims. probably will have to grind the rear calipers.

know anything about fitting 15" rims on the 87?

No problem, tires are still on my car anyway. I need to get my new 315s on my 11" wheels.

Anyway, as for th e15 I would guess it has a better chance of fitting in the back but not sure
