Track update on my LS7 Firebird I went to the track this weekend for the 1st time with my new 427 setup (see link below)... on Saturday in 4075FT DA it went 10.5's on the motor but felt a little sluggish off the line due to my really tight 3 disk nitrous converter... today I tried a 150HP shot on the TNT Ring Kit... the converter liked this a little more

Here's a video of the car's very 1st spray pass with the new combo from Saturday... my good buddy and engine builder was kind enough to take it down the track for me to make sure it was safe for me to drive

Andre, great ET/mph!
You are still planning on running on the street right? I would go TH400 if you are going to drive the car on the street a fair bit. Also you are a little on the heavy side for the glide imo.
Best of luck with the car, I think you have just scratched the surface with it
