I had a very simular setup when it was my DD... ran high 14's to low 15's depending on wheel spin/hop. I would just be shifting into 3rd as i went through the traps  still remember my first run. smoked that single tire all the way through the 1/8th. ran a 21 somthing

Re: 1/4 mile guestimate
Oh and get some gears. A 10" verter and 3.08s is quick way to cook atf. I tried its not good. With gears and some suspension tuning i went from 13.50s to 12.19s

Re: 1/4 mile guestimate
Home already frigging thing wouldn,t shift out of first again , had that problem in the spring and played with the governor and then it seemed ok , will shift under full throttle but then when you let off all you have to do if think about touching the throttle and it's right back down into first . It's 20 miles to the track too far to drive it like that , will have to try agsin in the Spring sorry guys but isn't that the way things always go when you plan something
