We don't think of 2.73 as a drag racing gear but it seems to do well with your combination.

Re: [Chevelle-list] Quarter Mile Times at Sacramento Raceway
BFG says 20 psi is the Minimum - I will try that on the next trip. One of the amazing cars I raced a couple of time was a newish turbo Porsche. Not sure what the model was but the car was running the 10s. Wow! The owner said the car was supposed to make 800 hp (BS?) but wasn't running right. Is anyone familar with those cars? Larry Clint Hooper wrote: Ouch, 2.13's with drag radials? Drop the pressure down to around 20psi and try some different burnout times. With some more practice,you should be able to get those short times down in the high 1.80's-low 1.90's. That will put you solidly in the 12's.
