Would it be safe to spray a 100 shot on stock bottom end with 62,000 on it. Also i went 12.7 just on motor with good traction do think i could go 11's. Thanks

From what I've read, the LS1 is good up to a 150 shot on the stock bottom end. Going higher may be pushing it a little.

If you've done all of the routine maintenance on your car, you should be fine. Just make sure that you purchase all the proper safety equipment.

WOT - comes with the kit
MSD Window and pills
FPSS

Optional:
Purge
Warmer
Bottle Opener

Things will add up. Trust me. I got the my kit for $300, but once I purchased all of the accessories. The price tag is $1k

Easily! I sprayed 100 shot all the time on my stock motor. Now its forged and I just use that as a safety net.

Forged motors give you a little more room for error. Im by no means a car expert, so Im learning.

Thanks for the advice. Do you think i should pull some timing?

I've got a Ramchargers Timing tuner on order to pull timing while spraying. It's a good rule of thumb to pull a couple of degrees on a 100 shot & the timing tuner has many other features. I think today might be the very last day to get in on the GP. In the group purchase forum.

I pull no timing at 150.

52k miles

I do run a couple of gallons of unleaded 104 on top of 4-5 gallons of 93 just in case.

No KR while on the spray.

FPSS
Window switch
TR6 @ .36
Stock internal '98 F-Body

12.8@105 to 11.6@114 (11.70@116) on the 150.

Interestingly I ran 11.73 on 100 the week before. I think my stock exhaust (manifolds,y,catback) is making the extra 50 next to worthless... Time for headers

what do you mean no KR while on spray?

what is FPSS?

what does TR6 @ .36 mean?

KR= Knock Retard

FPSS = Fuel Pressure Safety Switch

TR6@.36= NGK TR6 spark plugs.. gapped at .36

I didn't say you had to pull timing, I just said it's a good rule of thumb to. Also where I live in south Mississippi, these 90deg nights with big time humidity can cause KR with no spray. Also the extra octane you run helps a little I'm sure.

I'm sure that more people that spray don't do anything about pulling timing, than the people that do pull timing, but I just don't feel like taking the chance with this car. I have 2 cars that I race and I spray both of them, I can't really afford either of them, so I use every safety system I can to keep the motors together.

I was not at all inferring that it isn't a good idea to pull timing or that no one should. I was merely stating that I do not at this time w/my current set-up.

In certain conditions I would pull timing without hesitation.
