Headers, LS6 intake, and DRs should do me for a little bit

Not bad, I went to the track last week. Had a best of 13.6 @ 102, ran a bunch of 13.8's. I'm trying to go again this week, and get there earlier to get more cool down time.

What 60' times are you running? I'm guessing the K&N is what's helping you out over what I'm running, maybe a difference in elevation too?

I'm at about 220 ft above sea level.

I'm getting low 2.1's to mid 2.0's. My local track is horrible, and I don't try to luanch too hard - want the trans to last lol.

The K&N helps me a little I'd guess, but your weight and real tune I'd guess offsets that quickly lol

I'm cutting a low 2.0 I feel like If I could get another tenth off that I'd be happy with my ET.

13.7 is stout. I plan on going back to a better prepped track soon, hopefully run a slightly better time.

Nice times AlabamaGuy, I'm looking forward to dippin' into the 13's after a few mods. I'm more impressed with the traps, nearly 102 is scootin (in my opinion). Keep it up and keep us posted after the Thorleys.

I think we're the only 2 LS4 members down this way. I'm a little over an hour from the ATL.

Also, Montgomery is said to give about 2 tenths faster than this track. I'm going in 2 weeks, should be interesting...
