new best on motor today *update with vids*
Nothing ground breaking or earth shattering but a decent pay off for the work i put into it over the last couple months
Previous old best on motor was
60' 1.74
1/8th 7.856 @89.12
1/4 12.309 @ 109.73
todays new best was
60' 1.674
1/8th 7.654 @90.28
1/4 12.030 @ 111.87
Tried to make a few nitrous passes to see if i could get that 10 second pass I i'm looking for but the track just wasnt there. Tried tire pressure adjustments and window switch adjustments and as soon as the gas came on it'd blow the tires off.
New mods include front lower a-arms, chassis mounted tq arm, ls1 lid and chris1313 ram air and switched from a shark nozzle to a no2 outlet plate kit.

goddamn...NICE times for a cam only engine. I dont see ported heads listed in your mods. those numbers are VERY VERY nice. 12.030, are you kidding me!? thats nothing to be ashamed of!
I know the 58mm t/b isnt helping you. How is your rad to waterpump clearance with the ls1 lid and E-waterpump? did you have to lean the rad back?
Awesome times i say, the record is something like 11.8 for cam only isnt it? 2 tenths away from that...id be proud!
Who did your tuning? still optispark aswell? Do you run a nitrous tune or do you run 2 tunes? Id like to talk to you more about your car.

Last weekend mine ran 12.317 @ 110.53. It's cam, BBK throttle, long tube headers with a TH400 and S60. Weighs 3500 with me in it. It has 12.20's in it but that about all I expect. My 60's are in the 1.74's.

I thought the record was way lower than that.
Mayhem motorsports in raleigh,nc did the tuning. Yes still on a regular delco opti. Its on a nitrous tune with some timing pulled out up top. Made 315rwhp with the converter unlocked on the dyno. Ram air isnt very effective there.
The addition of the tq arm and shocks in the rear as well as the weight made a big improvement on mine. I have no idea how much mine weighs the scales weren't working at the track yesterday.

Here are the vids from the day.
I noticed on one of the passes my car looks like a 4wheel drive truck launching at the track lots of body roll. Would a better rear sway bar fix this?
