Nice runs! Cut that 60ft and lose some weight and you will hit the 10's.

Thanks Texas speed and yall's parts selection is working !
I'm car 22 and yes I ran the 11.54. Not sure what to say about mph except this was the first passes for this cat since putting it together. The other car was a stick car if that ran the 12.20 and it was a ported Eaton term. We'll be datalogging it to see if we need to adjust shift points next time.

The ls2 short block is a stocker that dyno speed took out of one their gto's. I've always had stick cars myself cause Ive always had stangs and sometimes I miss not being able to powershift, slamming gears but I don't miss clutch swaps.

I hear ya. I'm a former Mustang guy as well, and always prefered a manual, but to be honest I think I might prefer a good stalled auto at this power level...especially on nitrous. The car is great from a roll but tricky to get a great launch

Thanks! Nice meeting you and your bud at the track. Let me know when you head back up and maybe I'll be off where I can go also. I was launching at about 1,500 rpms and flooring it. I know, I should just floor it off idle but I haven't yet.
