13.3's - I would like to know the engine combination please. I know you did not run that with a 8.1.1 compression motor. Please elaborate the specs.
I know guys with 10.1.1 compression 400's and 3.42's in 2nd gen birds and they are not running that fast. They are running in the 13.5 range in the 1/4. Basic 10.1.1 400 motor , Qjet, factory intake, with stock 13 heads/exhaust (Ram air manifolds) and a 60916 cam. 75 Trans am automatic.
Back to the 2801. Its decent cam and will make decent power in the right combination. Erick has 6X8 heads
and a 3.08 gear. His compression is not even at 8.1.1
The XE 256 is the way to go for him. I rode in a 80 Trans am with 3.08 gears, 400 with log manifolds that was a total dog. The guy put in a XE 256 and it was
a huge difference. Strong low end and midrange torque. VERY STRONG. This guy used to get thrashed by civics and mustangs all the time. He has no problem staying ahead of new mustangs GTs.
Just my 2 cents worth
