If you haven't done anything to it since your last time out I will say 8.61 since that's what you ran before. As for HP and torque, I'm not sure, so I'd just be pulling numbers out of my *ss. What was your MPH on your previous runs?

If you put slicks on your car, don't go crazy in the water box. I broke the pins off the no slip with my slicks, no big deal. I blew the spider gears just barely hot rodding. Took out the pinion and girdle cover, big hole. It went 3 days before the test n tune but better than being pushed off the track. With drag radials or slicks, high 7's. What was your 60 ft and mph?

i changed a lot
new intake from the old cast iron, riped out the iron manofolds for headers, not useing the Q-jet got a 3310 750 VS that i tuned with wde band o2, and i put the recommended cam in. and whent from stock convertor to a 2500 stall
the holley 3310 had the upgraded rear mettering block and Quick change spring cover
i was all so having Bad valve float at 5K so i swapped the springs out for stiffer ones

my fastest run was
Reaction .8
60ft 2.00
330ft 5.633
1/8ET 8.61
MPH 82.4

How in the world did you get the 9.7 CR ?
Looks more like 8.7CR to me..

With your 1/8 mph, you can use an online calculator to get an estimated horsepower

i have not been to he track with the new setup but i listed up there at 82.4mph I was having bad Bad valve float at 5K so it's not a good measure of power

well i guess every one will know when i pony up for the dyno test
