I have a 92 camaro rs and I currently run 16.1.I just put in a set of 4.10s and a posi.What do you guys think I would run?Im hoping 14.9.Is that a realistic guess?

 

no way you would pick up that much, in all honesty you MAY pick up a tenth or too, its possible it will go even slower then now as its putting the car in in the high r's all the time and a stock engine makes all its power down low.

 

With that much gear you'll need a converter and cam to help it out or you'll just run out of power especially with stock height 26" tall tires. Stoplight to stoplight will be fun but you'll have no top end power. That's also providing you can keep the tires hooked up.

My current combination has 28x9 tires and 4.10 gears. I shift at around 6500 and cross the finish line just as the shift light comes on. My current converter is a 3800 stall 10".

I say "current" for all that because the combination is changing over the winter.

you will see a big gain in your times. the car will not run out of gear as popular myth would suggest.
you will likely go somewhere in the mid 15's i woudl say, look for a more realistic goal of around 15.5
you big prob is really gonna be hooking up. when you add that kind of torque multiplication to any car it is goona create some nice wheel spin unless you have some sort of traction mods going on at the same time. the best quick fix would be to leave the front sway bar at home when you go tot he track, it will allow the front to raise up faster and plant more weight on the rear wheels.

I agree, mid 15's maybe, but not high 14's.
