hey guys just gettin some info on what times you run stock or mod i ran a 14.52 in a vq stato with headers standed exh, shiftkit and 9,1s what yous doin cant wait till i run know with the 355 in it but ill wait till blower is in her..

thats a good time for a statto.. i ran 15.4 with exhaust only so to rip a second off with just a shiftkit and gears is good

yeah thats what i thought. she went good before the stroker but goes better now followed with more. i got a fair bit more when i put the exhaust on i should of waited to see what it did then.

What sort of times should I get with mine? (250wrkw, manual, 3.45, VL Calais) I guess it all comes down to how much grip I can get

nz evlhsv: what is that in hp... i got a 11.8 with 365rwhp man vlt.. with street tyres 225 inch wide... with side ways down the half way mark tryed second time but clutch went just after half way but still got 12.6 lol

250 kilowatts = 335.255522 horsepower (http://www.google.com/search?q=convert+250+kilowatts+to+horsepower&rls=com.microsoft:*&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&startIndex=&startPage=1)

I have a pair of 18" Senator rims with road legal slicks on them (245/40R18) that I thought I would use. I can't use anything smaller because if the tyre pops the body kit will hit the ground Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

it was around the 119 or 124 some were aroud that mark dont no off the top of head ill look at slips when get home...

yeh sounds about right, big mph... 10sec mph in auto Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

yet but allmost every one has auto im chasing more boost now so some frount runners and slicks hope 10 time will tell if it can be done...

Im aiming for a low 11 with the monaro now that it has a new diff, auto and motor (almost done). The internet 1/4 mile calculators say that it should run a high 10 but Im not sure how accurate they are. They dont calculate diff gears, convertor, gearbox, tyres etc.

hmm never used one of those befor... just entered all my cars details into one of those drag calculators and my E/T is 13.4sec... might fix a few things on my car and take it for a drive down to calder when i have the time...

Its got genie extractors, twin 2 1/2" exhuast, stage 2 shift kit, 2,200rpm stall & im pretty sure the diff gears have been changed caus my speedo is about 10-15km/h out... but apart from that engine is pretty stock as far as i know

i doubt it will run a 13 with a stock motor, more like a mid to high 14 with those mods

My Vr 355 stroker full weight + stereo ran 10.34 @ 132.45 Not bad for a heavy boat, have undergone some weight reduction, and new mods will see what she can do again very soon.

where do you get those drag calculators from guys.. what does the ba turbo run done the 1/4 with intercooler and 11 psi he thought he be smart but i drilled him and the look on hes face was great a new turbo ford with mods getting drilled by a old stato.. lol and he over shot hes turn to witch was ven more funny

took mine down last nyt and ran a 14.30 consistant... it needs a service and tune pretty bad.. but when i got it the fella said its a mild 355 stroker. i had 8" MT's on only has a 2000 stally, mild cam, chipped, extractors, exhaust and ss type induction.... shouldnt it be running quicker than that? other than a good tune i couldnt see that making the different between getin into the high 13's as most do in 355 vn's.... did 14.3 at 97mph.
