I just know Mike's time because we are neighbors. I know he is the fastest stock bottom end, but there are others in the 9's with built 346 motors.

10.50 at 128.04 for me N/A with bone stock shortblock and trans (except for converter). RECKLESS and others can vouch for the car as I made 14 runs at Norwalk on 10/17 at the COFBA with 10 between 10.50 and 10.57...plus one 10.60 on a big bog, one 10.62 spinning, one 10.77 with a 200# passenger, and one completely wasted run...blew the tires away trying to leave at flash stall.

Take care. Dave

I hope to be in the 9's someday, but I am not sure if it will be a 346 anymore.

Dave's car (ruquikr) is very impressive. Pulls the wheels like the big dogs! And runs very consistently. Although, your skinny buddy was no where near 200 pounds :p

Mike lives about 10 minutes from me. He is an alright guy, I guess. I am gonna squish his *** at the track next year though

He's 188# nekkid...he's all muscle where I weigh about the same nekkid, both pushing 200#'s with out firesuits and helmets we had on. Let's put it this way, if we were both running down the beach without a shirt on, he'd look like David Hasselhoff and I'd have my C-cup manbreasts a bouncin' closer to the likes of Pam Anderson! Anyways, you get the ugly picture. Take care and we'll both see you at the COFBA event at Norwalk in the spring.

I currently have the quickest stock ci. LS1 with a power adder. On November 10th I will be looking to take the car to the 9.5x range with nothing changed on the car at all. Just a better track and much much better weather.

Man those are some awesome N/A ets and mph for stock cubes. What is your race weight? Must be stripped down a bit i would guess. Best i have seen on the forums! Whose heads and cam package you running and what type of dyno numbers is that bad boy running. Let me guess, your running a YANK 4400 PT converter. Better start saving for a built tranny with the power that bitch is running!

I plan on getting a mid 9 sec pass also, ran a 10.05 with just a 175 shot so will see how it acts on a 250-300 shot....

3131#'s raceweight is light, but I've seen lighter, and obviously, heavier ones, too...Lingenfelter / GM Performance Parts CNC'd LS6's. Yes on the Yank. BTW, I keep waiting to hurt the trans, but I have over 200 10 and 11-sec passes plus a bunch of 12-sec ones on the stock trans (except for the converter). Car has only 2,000 miles on it a lot 1/4 at a time but still has the original trans fluid.

For durability, I keep torque management activated but have always had the force control motor pins unplugged at the PCM. This ensures 100% line pressure and quickest shift solenoid speeds...however, if you don't have a loose converter, don't do this or it will snap your neck even in the parking lot.

BTW, I have done back-to-back runs with torque management off and on and cannot see more than a few hundreths. I know some guys swear more, but for what I've seen, I'm not worried about it thus far.

Finally, on dyno numbers, I don't have any and don't care to...too much variation between dynos and dyno types. I race enough and keep meticulous notes and data logs (via Tech 2) to not worry about dyno numbers. Plus, with the 4400, 12-bolt, etc., it would post a number a lot less than many others. Take care.
