Default New best for my LS1 stang
My previous "best" was an 11.7 @ 130 on street tires spinning till the 1/8.. switched from a T56 to a TH400 w/transbrake, built 8.8, 3.73s to 2.73s, M&H slicks.. Here are the results!

The power of the turbo



Nice runs, that is moving out for sure.

Definitely, I'm starting on another one within the next few weeks, going to be a 6.0 with a turbo setup later on in the year.

Wonder were you trapping at RPM's wise through the clocks. I eventually wound up going back up to a 3.23 with my 400 and made just under 2/10 difference in my 60ft times and .38 difference on the big end.
