10's or bust
 

How is it going folks. It's been a wail but I'm back. Would like to post my project 1998 Camaro SS. Quick run down, MS3 cam with 02 top end includes ls6 intake, th400 trans, Nitrous outlet plate kit and basic suspension mods. Hoping to break into the 10's with a 100shot and circle D nitrous converter. Gears are 3.90 on a Mickey Thompson 295/55/15. Any advise besides the mods I posted to help me get into the 10's I would greatly appreciate it.

I see no reason that you couldn't get into the 10's with your current setup

Thanks. Car is still close to full weight. I won't know til I weigh it. It's a bit tuff to get into those low et cause my local track has bad track prep. (Sac raceway)

Keep us posted!

Sure will. I will be posting my converter as soon as it comes in and a few other pictures. Motor is coming back out to finish up a few minor engine bay touch ups as well as the converter & nitrous install.

Few more parts going in as soon as my converter comes in.

I'm trying for 10s with no nitrous I think you will be mid 10s with nitrous

^^I would agree with this^^ (SEE MY SIG)

We will see how it turns out. BTW car was a M6. Motor is coming back out to install th400 and fix my brake lines. Now it's just a waiting game lol

Circle D converter finally came in.

Take it out to Sonoma or Sac yet?

I don't see a problem with you going at least mid 10's. My cam is similar to yours and just on motor I made a 11.1 pass at Sac raceway this past wednesday. Prep is key though, I was slip and sliding when I tried to use the nitrous.

Do you have 15x8 or 15x10 rear rim? I like that tire size. Keep us posted!!

hows it going. Sorry for late reply iv been busy with the family. Car is about done. Winter here so won't be out till February. Il be sac test and tuning. Il post a few more pictures of the recent mods done since then.

Nice man. im running 15x10 rears. think i saw your car on a post MAXLIMIT posted on instagram.Your car is moving, just needs a anitroll bar aka drag sway bar.:thumb:

Finally came across this used Moser 9inch rearend. Should fix my worries about breaking at the track. Pretty excited it's been four years in the making. Stay tune for more.
