I got my 11's last night with my 3.31 car.

11.96 @ 114.76.

3.31s, offroad X, LCAs and brackets, M&H Racemasters in 26x10 and tune by Shaun at AED.



Listen to the roar of the stock mufflers!!!!


I am psyched!

Honestly, I can't say as I am too busy trying to keep it straight on 16 psi of air at the big end. I will have to run a calculator and find out.

Wow, impressive. Makes me think the 3.31 in my GT convertible will be just fine.

Sawheet! I'm continually impressed by the 5.0!

Anyways, you didn't by any chance calculate your DA did you?

Feels good when you finally get that 11 sec slip with minimum mods. 11.955 @ 117.38 with tune only a6. First run of the day was 12.001 thought maybe it wasnt going to happen. Congrats

Tune only?

What tune?
What octane gas?
What track?

What is the radius of your tire? I am changing my 4.10 gears to either 3.31 or 3.55 with the 3700 stall converter it's just to much gear.

The 3.31's are impressive. My car has limited mods with 3.31's and I beat most everything I run to 130. I beat a twin turbo 370 Saturday night from a dig to 130 mph, and a s-10 drag truck on radials. The truck is running 11.5's on the track and the 370 is pushing 560 to the wheels. Puts me in a big wonder to if I should make the change to 3.73's


Quick Reply: I got my 11's last night with my 3.31 car.
