Default 402ci LS1-based motor runs 10.08
I'm running a new setup in the car.

402ci Iron LS1-based motor, built by Keith Craft Motorsports.

I ran in the GMHTP 10.99 shootout event, took some photos and made some
passes.

I'm running all-motor until we find the best ET for this setup, then I"ll set it up
to be "Abnormally aspirated"

The best pass at the shootout was 10.08 @ 135. More to come later.

its either a 3-speed or a 'glide. raceweight is probably pretty low (30xx-31xx).

Um, hello. Thanks for showing everyone how slow they are. But I really like the 408 stroker sound... has a nice ring to it.

Perhaps it is slow, but that's the fastest I can run right now. I will keep working at it.

I used to drive past Fuquay-Varina about once a week when I lived in Raleigh.

Some additional info on the setup:
.709 lift cam
PowerGlide tranny
Sub-optimal converter
3155 lbs
Some bling bling in the motor compartment
100% fun, no question about that
