Going to the track tonight!!
First off, with my mods & assumeing i can cut at least a 2.2 60ft., i would like you guys to guess what i might run "ET & MPH", then i'll post back & see who comes in the closest, one thing for sure is, ever sense i installed the LTs & ORY, it'll just fry the **** off these street tires, even at 1/2 throttle from a roll , never did that before, now the last time out at the track, it was my first time raceing this car, my 60fts were "in deed" the crappiest ever, i managed a 14.5 with a 2.599, i'll still need to figure out my leaving technique, i'm still running the stock 10 bolt, so i'll try feathering it out at around 2K or less & then hope for the best, but i'm sure its going to blow the tires off (which sucks big time), so anyway, start guessing what it'll run & i'll post back later tonight or early morning.
97 Z28 6sp, CAI, Airfoil, MAF, PS LTs & ORY (no cats), magnaflow cat back, highpertech "160" stat, NGKs, UD pulleys, skip shift elim, E torque arm, B&M short shifter, Ram clutch assembly, Pan bar, stock 10 bolt, 3.42s, 255/40/17 Cooper Zeons.

14.5 @ 110 lol
gotta get it to hook up or it won't be what you want, 2.5 ft time is just bad. If you can cut a 2.0 I would say you should be able to pull of a 13.4@ 104.

Thats what i can't figure out, i was going to complain about it, but figured it wouldn't do any good, i just don't get it, it feels very strong, & i only picked up alittle over 1 MPH in the 1/8 with the headers & ORY, with the mannys it ran 75+ MPH, could it be the "tune", now when i left, it hooked decent, i didn't feel any real major tire spin, i took off, 1/2 throttled it too the 60ft., then let it rip, the way it felt, sure felt like a 13 sec. pass, but as we know, the timers don't lie for the most part, so from this point, i'll just get a tune & forget about anything else (includeing racing it), it is a blast to drive & feels really good dispite what it runs, its just my luck thouggh, i would have the slowest LT1 on the planet lol.
I did line up with a TA that was running mid 12s, we left heads up, then he disapeared behind me , come to find out his 10 bolt bit the dust, this was his 2nd. one behind the 6sp., so maybe its a good thing not to be so tempted to race this car too much, because i can't afford to break things, i'm a poor sumbitch

The ONLY thing i can think of that might be causeing issues would possibly be the Granittelli MAF running it too lean & the Hypertech advancing the timing, maybe those too combined are working agaist each other.

I'm going to run a compression test on it & rule that out, I was going to go with the PCMforless tune, i called about it, he said the Granittelli MAF wasn't a problem, he can tune for it along with dumping the hypertech, he garuantee's it'll run great with it once its tuned.
