Can a 3650lb. Camaro A4 with 3.73 gears and a G-60 Hoosier
run 13.99 or better w/227rwhp.@5500 and 265rwtq.@3600.

 

I doubt it. I'd guess only 14.6's

You need more HP or put your car on a diet.

 

i think the 14.6 prediction is really close. i had a 225 with my stock cam and the car weighed 3280lbs and i only ran 14.20's. i suppose you could get 13's oput of it if you ran enough gear, but then i doub the car would be drivable.

highly doubt it
my guess would be high 14.6-15.0

that little amount of hp and tq in with that much mass would not move easily

either get the power up or the weight down and you should be able to get it though

 

Come on guys,that still equals 272hp. and 316lbs/ft. at the crank.
A 94 LT1 with 275hp. and 325lbs/ft. runs 14.4@98 w A4 , 2.73 gears,stock radials and wieghs 3700lbs,I have seen fully loaded
GTA`s run high 14`s with 245hp.L98`s and 3.23 gears.

 

Power to weight ratio is based on rear wheel HP since that's the final output to the ground trying to push you down the track.

His power to weight ratio works out to 14.6's but that will really depend on traction. If he runs faster then his car is lighter than quoted or he has more RWHP available than expected.

Put that same engine into a stripped down 2500 pound car (ie Monza or Vega) and it should run 12.9's

 

If you can hook up decently, you should be able to hit the high 13's. With 257 rwhp at 5650 rpm and 347 wrtq at 3400 rpm, in my ~3600 lb IROC with an auto tranny, 2400 stall converter, 3.42 gears, and 275/50R15 Drag Radials, I ran a 13.41 at 102 mph with a poor 1.96 60-foot time. I couldn't hook up since my Torsen diff isn't allowing me to do a decent burnout, so the DR's aren't getting heated up. With my ported SLP runners now installed and at least 30 more hp, I ran a 13.20 at 105.0 mph, still with no traction, but that'll be taken care of by spring.

 

Yeah, that can easily hit that.

I'm running that time with a non-modified 305 in my GTA.
