HELP....my so called performance slug
MADVET:
The main cat is prone to collapsing and will progressively block the exhaust.(i had this problem once).
A mild or stock L98 should run closer to 100mph.
Could be running into the L98 out of breath zone with those 3.7 gears.

what colour is the car ?
it must not be red,cause red ones go faster,
you could understand if it was a banana coloured rat powered vette and it lacked grunt.

I would consider a high 13 or low 14 to be OK for your Vette

I'd agree but with the 3.73's in an auto car I'd expect a little better - maybe consistent 13.XX ET's (with everything else being equal/up to the task).
Is it me or does the MPH look a little low guys?
What was your 60ft time mrvett?

my 60ft time was 2.014
with a quarter mile time of 14.092 @ 94.93mph
u reckon its gettin sluggish in da top end?
BOSCHVETTE:
it is definately losing top end somewhere.put a broom stick through the cat and see how you go.

In my opinion that is a good enough 60ft time for the ET you are running and for a stockish L98. I agree with Boschvette and others who say you are missing some top end.
In my opinion you should be doing around 99-100mph trap speeds.
