Crap. One other thing Frank. The subframe is complete out to the drum hubs and it has the steering too. I think I even have new ball joints and bushings tucked away for it somewhere too.

You bet you'll get your car into the 11's. Heck 10's if we strap a JATO rocket on the back...

yields 4.34 for the last 1/8 mile,
7.68+4.34 = 12.02
so my guess is 12-12.1

Your math is very close, we always use 1.56 X 8th mile. We also use a 24 to 25 MPH increase in MPH in the second half of the track. It is almost always perfect. If my street racer runs 101MPH 1/8th. it will run 126MPH quarter on motor and if it runs 117 MPH 1/8th, it will do 142 MPH Quarter on spray.

OK so I have been doing somethinking ..... What if I were to run some 110 or 112 race gas and was able to be more agressive on the timing how would that affect performance??

It will slow it down if it deos not need it. The car will run faster on lower octane fuel if it can run on it. That is why they make different octanes, or else it would all be 118. But, we probably can add some timing to help the launch.
