Default New pb for the 99

Went to hrp yesterday and got 2 runs in the whole day lol.
First pass was the best even though I spun a little. ET Streets were @ 15pounds....will try a little more air next time. New PB & this was n/a as well.

60...1.801
330...5.363
1/8th...8.387
mph...81.14
1000...11.044
1/4...13.315
mph...99.14

Also, if anyone has an idea as why I am losing et and mph up top let me know. Seems to be 2/10ths & 2mph slower compared to the 1/8 et & mph.

Nice times! and your losing on the big end BC its a truck, My old silverado went a 7.71 @ 90mph in the 1/8th and a 12.04 @ 114mph 1/4 where as my camaro went 7.76 @ 92 mph in the 1/8th and 11.84 @ 117mph in the 1/4. And both were 60' in the 1.7s. Aerodynamics own

Well, if you calculate out your 1/8th mile 7.71x1.56 = 12.0276 and mph 90 x 1.25=112.5 seems you are right on...even a little better on the mph.

Mine was 8.387x1.56=13.08 and 81.14x1.25=101.425. I know the calculations arn't perfect but they tend to never be a couple hundreths off.

No feels fine in the upper rpm. Recently changed fuel filter and pump.

Yep, still stock manifolds...stock heads though. What you are saying is definately a possibility.


Next time out I will try to keep more than a 1/4 tank and see if that helps.
