Why stock crank?
How much power?
How high do you spin it?
What block, heads?
Cam specs?
How many cubes?
How do you hold the heads down?
Race weight?
(related to last question, may or may not be relevent depending on race weight) Why a powerglide?
Plan on being the quickest/fastest LS1?
Size turbos?
Where can I find more videos?
MPG
?
Who is the dork yelling "Oh my god!" in that video? I about shat myself the first time I heard it.
General Comments:
And please tell me you got video when you went "hunting for 'busa's".
Nice new time.
And, um, ...
That's all I can think about off the top of my head.

Wow, i figured more then a good tune was needed, most people i have seen in the 800 range need to do other things. there tune was mint, no knock ect, nice af and all, but the cars still pushed a little water each pass

Here goes....
Why not 
No real dyno numbers, had drag radials on when I first checked the base tune. Spun the tires anything past 18psi. Even w/ 6 straps on the back, and 4 people in the trunk.
shift at 7800, limiter at 8000
LS6 block, 6.0L heads
Futral solid roller 251/248 .695/.683 115LSA
.010 over block, 348 cu in
good tune, GM MLS gaskets, standard ARP studs
was 3330 before the wheelie bars and chute, guessing ~3400 right now
Recommendation of a friend with a fast mustang 
If it is, so be it. Just out to have fun.
T66 right now
they are coming soon
not sure, 140 miles and 10 gallons the one night. mixed driving
That would be Coach B, resident slacker
