What type of rockers? SLP/ZZP? Intense? Comp Cam? Reworked? Also you did get LS1 retainers for the Comp Cam #105'* right?

You're gonna like them that'* for sure. They'll definitely hlep with that 3.4" pulley. I'm not sure you're gonna hit 8'*, but you will definitely be very close. Can't wait to see the results.
Just don't be posting or promoting any street racing.

i was speaking of the T&T days at the track ! i'm pretty sure about 8.90'* cause the 9.23 is on street tires w/ a 2.16 getting that to a 2.0 or even a 1.9 w/ slicks should be a mindless task. that alone should net 9.0-9.1'*. not to mention at least 20 more of 'em under the hood .

some rule of thumb things est. brought me to the conclusion of upper 8'*:
now - 9.23 w/ a 2.16
.1sec '60 = @ .2 on the other side
10hp = @ .1
2.16 to 2.0(conservitavely?) = @ 9.0-9.1
+20hp = @ 8.8?-8.9

While that is true, IIRC that is what you'd see in a 1/4 -not sure how much you'd drop in the 1/8 ....my guess/estimate would be around .14 to .16.

Either way I know that'd put you right into the heart of LT1 territory.
