Thought I used to have a more inclusive calculator, but all I can find are weight and HP to calc ET.

Monte Carlo Drag Specifications Engine HP 405 Engine Torque 440 Transmission T-350 Torque Converter 2800 RPM Rear Gear 2.73 limited slip Rear Tire Diameter 28 inch Carb Holley 750 Vac Sec Curb Weight 3500 lb???

dbreese Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 Carl, Try www.wallaceracing.com\Calculators.htm Ya might be able to get close but there are lots of thing that come into play. Air, converter slip, 60', etc. The best test is the ole 1320 dyno.LOL Don't know what kind of tires you are running but some sticky DOT"s MT Hoosier will help. 60' is very important. Good luck!
