Default Finally got the new tuneup

Thanks to APPLIED NITROUS tonite we finally got the tuneup right for the dry kit we have been trying. At Thunder we ran a 5.80 1/8 on a 275hp wet kit. Tonite with a 175 DRY kit we finally got to a 5.80. And that is with a 9.5 Air/Fuel ratio.

Thanks to Edgar and Larry Cato for the IMMORAL support.

The car has a Dart Iron Eagle block. Brodix -18 heads. To duplicatethis with new parts probably $25000.00. I bought a complete engine used for $5000.00 that needed pistons and rods. I just freshened the heads and bought a cast intake instead of using the sheetmetal one that came with the engine.

BTW I have another set of -18 heads and sheetmetal intake if you want the for cheap.

Why do you keep talking about a SBC when this is an LS1 Board?! This is LS1Tech, not SBCTECH! Do you want to hear about our BBC 7sec 10" Tire Ladder Bar cars????
You need to get an LS1 Stroker, and you know where to get the WORDLS FASTEST LS1 Engines!!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

No we're down to three, three and a half feet of snow. But our snowmobiles are going 150mph on ice, so we're still getting our fill <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Thats awesome Brian. Keep up the good work <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

Dont forget about us little guys going for the record too... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" /> Hopefully we'll have something for you and ARE in a couple weeks. Maybe a match race in San Antonio, if we can keep the problems to a minimum lol..

Jeff Prock does know his stuff!

He just plumbed intake for me plus flowed the nitrous kit.

When it comes to nitrous Jeff is probably one of the top tuners in the nation.
