First time out on this combo since mostly stock. Only made one pass with a light launch but new mickeys hooked great.

On 60lb injectors and a stock, unopened block, with that combo that car is no slouch... nice job.

Actually 80s in this car. I should update my sig. All that info is for the gn. Blue car has te44, alky, husek converter, stock long block.
 
Can't under estimate the work of a good converter...Is that a LU or non lock?
Its a husek 3021 high flow lock up. Very pleased with this converter. Drives like stock.

Tune was rich on this run. 10.0-10.4, 19* timing and 28 pounds boost. Couldn't go leaner without lowering fuel pressure or pulling alky. Im going to work on the tune. Hopefully I can see low 11s unless the trans gives up. Looks like this should have been at least an 11.6 in the 1/4?
 
I went 7.2 @ 94 with a 1.58 60' so far. Running a 3021 Husek. Pretty happy with it being that it's a LU

Combo is a TE60 with alky at 26-27 200k stock internal motor and non ported heads

How much extra was the high flow or is that standard with his converters? Will be putting one on my car this spring

That's a nice run with that combo as well as a good 60ft

Nice. Need to get my 60' down.

A converter "might" help............

You should know 60ft times are all about seat time......... get out there, have some fun and make some passes on the combo you have.... :D:D

I already have a husek converter. Already went 1.66 on first pass on only about 2 pounds of boost. I just need seat time.

According to this chart yes

I don’t really know tho. I just found it online
 
Ive found a few conversions using different conversion factors between 1.56-1.6 so its hard to say for sure.
I’d imagine a lot has to do with the car.
You could probably have your car gears set for the 1/8 but then 1/4 is going to hurt it? Just a guess I’m no pro
And it’s probably just to give people an idea
 
Nice job.
60' will take some seat time and figuring out your suspension.

I have Metco uppers and lowers, HR bar, no air bags, old KYB shocks.
With a soft 5 psi foot brake launch at 2900 rpms I have been 1.46 60'. Car runs 6.22 @ 112.6
