Unhooked exhaust at the cat
Computer tune (similar to hypertech, but its a custom tune with raised line pressure)

Eibach sportline springs in the front, stock springs in the rear
Unhooked front sway bar

bad news, the posi went out on the 3rd run's burnout, and i 1 wheel drive'd it to a 1.7 60'

2.73 gears, stock converter is what i had on that pass
but since i think i broke the posi last night (one wheely peely on the last run) i will be moving up to a 3.42 gear, with a 2400 stall this spring/summer

its still my daily driver...besides, my torque in the LT1 is about 2400 already, so if i can launch about 2000-2200 rpm, i should be pretty good
i'm surprised you guys believe me, cz28.com think i'm lying lol

A stock convertor?? Okay now I'm calling 
I don't think there is any way considering I've gone 1.51 60 foot N/A with 3.73 gears and a 3800 stall 10" convertor that a stock GM 12" convertor and 2.73 gears will get you that kind of 60 foot. The speed was pretty low for a 12.20 pass but I figured that was because of the killer launch. But a stock convertor? How about a real timeslip and/or pictures for verification? I could be wrong here, but this is a little far-fetched.

those are my two best slips (out of 3 runs)
the video was inconclusive, but the 1.5 run def. shows a lot more body lift on the front than the one where we got a better angle and me being in the right lane, but unfortunately, i ran the left lane and forgot they were filming on the first run of the night (1.5 60' run)
oh well, i am happy
oh, and the right lane's timing lights were messed up from an 03 cobra blowing up and taking out half the wall at the end of the track a month ago, so trap speeds arent correct on the right lane slip (the 1.5 60' one)
video link momentarily

yeah
its an IHRA track, so the big fast NHRA guys cant run there because not enough runoff at the end.
it goes uphill about 100-200 feet after the finish light.
it helps save the horrible LT1 brakes from warping and catching on fire and hating me. lol

I stand corrected. Car pulls hard for a stock convertor, I've never seen one pull like that before, but I guess as they say there is a first time for everything!
