Hi Guys:
I have a 92 347 Stroker. It’s makes 357HP NA and 366 FT/LBS. I currently run. auto NT555R in 285/35/18. My best short time was 1.74. Not bad.
I got MT ET Street R’s, thinking I would do way better. I got 285/55/15 with a set of Weld Drag lights. I aired them way down, and on the big end the car was all over the place. Same with the Nittos before I stopped going to low. Now I stay around 17 PSI and no seat at all. Faster MPH too.
So here is my question. I throughly the MT’s would give me better 60 foots. I think they dead hook and make me bog. I leave at like 4500. Best short time was a 1.88. I also lost one MPH. If I leave the pressure around 20, will they work better, or do I just not have enough power to get the wheel speed I need for those tires? I never though 18’s would run better than 15’s, but I have the time slips to prove it. Any ideas? Should I take the MT’s back to the track and run em at a higher pressure? Would a low pressure have killed my MPH?
Would a 26 x 10.5 MT Drag improve the 60 foots? I’m currently running 12.2 at 113.92.
