Default Finally made some passes on the new motor

Finally got the new motor together and some track time in during the super chevy show in palm beach over the weekend. made no changes in the tune from when i unloaded the car made 3 passes of 11.01 and 1 pass of 10.98 @122 all and all was pretty happy with the new bullet and these are the only 4 passes on the motor so im thinking with a little tuning it may get better.
here is the setup.

98 aluminum ls1 block (346ci)
Je flat top pistons with -2cc valve relief
oliver 6.125 rods
stock crank
98 806 casting gtp stage 2 heads
fti streetsweeper cam
holley 850 carb

Thanks thats kinda what im thinking the air fuel was 12.5 with 32 degrees timing so im going to play around with air fuel and timing some, and i have to replace my rear shocks they are locked up and not allowing to transfer properly.

I think youll like the 5000 stall btw mine is a 5100 fti 9 inch converter.
