Default 1st pass off the trailer

Not too terribly upset. But this old LT1 ran a 10.88 @ 123mph with a 1.51 60ft. Car is a turbo LT1 with a TH400. Leaving on 4.5lbs and running a max of 7.5lbs. I have a lot of learning to do. I have to still learn to understand the logs, adjust the tune and the suspension. Hopefully I can actually turn boost controller on and get better results! Will post time slip once I find it....

Nice pass. That Ls1 front end is taking a little credit away from the Lt1 though. Most people will just assume it's a Ls in there.

True. But nothing feels better than showing people its a LT1. When I started building this car, I couldn't afford the LS platform. So I worked with what I had

Thanks. I hope so. Have a lot of tweaking to do. Hopefully I can get it figured out in 10 passes or less

Awesome results for shake down runs and limited boost, you have a sweet ride there and a beast when you really lean on the boost!!!
