My original 400 in my 78 with just a [email protected] cam ran mid 14s with 2.56 gears, something is a miss.

The combo should be good for low 13s easy.

As Brian had said the 3.73 will probably be a bit much with the 26". Most 275/60-15s are 28" tall, OK for them(or 1/8 mile).I could never get consistant 60 fts with DOT stickies real slicks were always better for me. Maybe 0.2-0.4 but mainly consistancy.

I have yet to see an Ultradyne unless custom ordered come with a 113 lobe sep, 110 is their standard.

my 78 weighing 3900 with a 455, UD 288/296(231/[email protected]) Qjet, headers and a 3.42 gear would run 12.90s on street Comp TAs.That was with a 2.00 69 ft also.

Cam and convertor are where I would look first,
