Got about 6 runs in and only had wheel spin on one of them. Power braked very little around 1000, didnt really watch just kinda felt it out. Yes it has 2.73s and i think thats the next thing to go.

thats a really good trap speed for an auto, headers in the near future? and what about a stall, even if it is your dd a stall will be very helpful.

I dd my 3,600 and 3.73 geared auto and love it.

Nice times. If I ever buy another F-body it has to be an 01-02. They seem to run so much better.

I have LT and a O/R Y, ECO,spare tire and jack removed as well as the back seats and we ran damn near the same time with you MPH'ing higher than me......

My car sucks lol

Whats up Bro!

IMO i think if you plan on doing more to it you should swap in the 6spd since its your daily driver. that way you're gas milege will be around 25 mpg

BTW... everyone heres a vid of his car at the track(hope ya dont mind Marc)

Congrats on the times, I'm sure the time of year air helped out. A tune would be on my short list unless you're planning more mods before the next visit to the track.

i actually did a log of one his runs and going by the 02 millivolts hes allready running at around a 12.6:1 a/f which is strange considering most gms run lean from the factory..hence the factory freak term lol
