small block LA 600 Hp set up

Online calc says you were roughly 530, 550 will only get you another tenth or so. 600 will be high 9’s. Is your car set up to pass tech dipping into the 9’s? Adding more safety gear/weight will move you backwards a bit.

Another way to ask the question, what actual ET are you trying to hit?

I have to rebuild my engine, and are aiming to improve in e.t without compromising engine reliability and consistency. If I can run low 10's, high 9's on my new build will be awesome.
