Default West Coast Power

I just checked the ET LIST and noticed Jantzer and I are the only 10 second heads/cam cars with positive DA. Pretty funny EH? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

That's a pretty good point.

Just what do all the 10sec cars run normally? I see times posted once a year for some of these cars in crazy DA's. Anybody care to talk about there average runs?

My best is 10.89 with over 10 10.90 passes this year and dozens of 11.00 passes. How about you?

I ran 12.8@106 stock longblock. If you were to do my heads/cam you'd be in the mid 10s. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Terry - I don't understand how you manage to get any traction at Carlsbad - do you bring your own can of VHT?

ps - I just ordered a Pro 5.0 shifter from New Joisey; as soon as it's in (and I don't have to worry about munging up another engine) I'll be seeing you at the track! <img border="0" alt="[Burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" />

Terry, according to JS, my DA was positive the day I went 10.94. Only about 500, but still positive......

Hey, Iam not scared.

I average in between 1.52 to 1.57 60ft., 7.26 to 7.42 in the 1/8th and 11.33 to 11.48 in the 1/4. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" />

More tuning on the 28th of June and we will see what this Texas boy can really do.(10's in the Texas Summer heat with a 346)

What kind of reaction time are you boys averaging? Iam at 5-teens to 530's in elimanations since I got the Hot Rod back. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

Good luck to you boys. Keep it up. It makes all this LS1 stuff more fun. <img border="0" alt="[hail]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" />

wondered when cali would produce something ... morgan finally figure something out or you buying parts elsewhere? several months ago you were barely in the 11's with - DA, when we were there with the - DA a long time ago.

F Houston? pretty flattering that you are going after an entire city
