sorry man you said you wanted a drag radial so i thought you were heart set on a radial. if you wanted a wrinkle wall i would look into a m&h or a mickey thompson slick. but i doubt they will be in 17" rims.....

for street tires i recommend nitto 555r's that is what i am running and love them.

i am still a rookie at drag racing so i was all over the place when launching etc so i cant say. all i know is i went 12.80@113mph with a crappy 2.3 60ft because i dont know how to launch yet.

i was on a set of toyo's and they were hopeless, the hoosiers helped out alot over the toyo's i will say for sure.

 

113 is a darn good trap speed and for that speed, a 2.3 60' is a VERY POOR launch. I have a 66 Lemans that I stuffed a GM 502 in; it will run 12.0x and my trap speeds are only 110 - 112. My 60' times with that are a 1.8x with wrinkle wall slicks; (and I actually could use more tire or better weight distribution)

When I was out with my Monte a few weeks ago I was cutting 2.3 60' times on cs4 touring street tire. I was only hitting 102 - 103 in the quarter, which means you got quite a few more horses under your hood . If your car was hooking REALLY well, I think you could pull some really low 12's and probably even dip in the 11's.

 

I agree I always said if I could hook a 1.9-2.0 60ft I would run a low 12 or very high 11

Turbo Monte is making around 430whp

 

You need to updated your signature With that many ponies under the hood, 11's for sure! Do you have a stock torque converter?

 

i am running a 2700 stall converter built for my car and mods i have done. i bought it from kevin at cartuning performance.

i havnt updated it yet because i do not have a dyno slip to prove that number. i have done more mods to increase my power level quite a bit and i have asked people with similiar cars etc what there making or what i should be making now and everyone is agreeing on 430-440whp. i know it is def faster now then it was when it was dynoed. i want to dyno again but i am waiting till i upgrade the turbo then ill dyno for a more final number
