Default Finally got it! Full weigh M6 SS

I was finally able to get it all together and run a new best with the heavy Chevy.

10.94 @ 126.9 with a 1.53 60'. Car weighed in at 3860 with me.

lq9 with PRC 237 heads and a Patrick G/ EPS cam.

I'm especially happy I could shift it to a new best. Autos are great but I luv the violence of a M6....until I break something. lol!

Congrats! Always cool to see people rowing some gears. Stalled autos are quick and consistent, but nothing is as fun as doing the shifting for yourself. Nice time for a heavy *** car. Mine is 3775-3800 lbs depending on how much fuel I have in at the time.

I absolutely luv the violence of a manual. It truly is a blast. It's hard or parts, but a blast nonetheless.

It made 476 on a mustang dyno. I'm still hoping that with a FAST 102 intake I may have another tenth or so in it.

Yeah, but it's been a very difficult road getting there. I wish I had gone the route you did.

I think you still have more in it. I'm surprised with that 60ft and trap you didn't go a couple tenths quicker. What was the da for this run? -5000 lol. You always get the good air that i envy

The da was right around sea level if not a couple hundred feet below. The day started off warm but cooled down that night. There's still something not right with this car, there are still quite a few bugs to work out. I feel with everything working as they should, 10.7s should be possible.

I agree with you. I think with the same weather that you ran your fastest time with the ls1 and everything working right you'll go 10.6. Good luck and hope you get it dialed in. I finally plan to get back to the track some time soon. Its been a long time

It's only fun when you can get it all together in one perfect pass.
