Stick Shift 99 Trans Am LS3 Stroker 10.859
Figured I'd post this here since it went shockingly easily with the right-ish setup. Reached my goal of getting into the 10s all motor last night at Great Lakes Dragway in Union Grove, WI.
Car is a 99 trans am
-TSP LS3 stroker 416, 11.8:1 compression
-PRC 247 Cylinder heads
-251/258 duration cam
-Mamo FAST 102, ARH 2" headers to 3.5" Y dumped
-Monster LT1S clutch
-Stock T56
-Strange S60 rear with 4.10's and an strac.
-3650 pounds with me in it.
-Viking front and rear coil overs set to their base drag settings. 550lb front springs as this car also will get road race treatment eventually.
-93 Octane
-Mickey Thompson 3055S out back with the little guys up front.
Two Step was set to 3500 on this pass, just dumped it and changed gears when the shift light came on. After this, took my wife, dad and some family friends on a pass, went back to back to back to back 10.95-97's. Final pass was a 10.84 with just me in it, trying to see if we can get a 10.7 setting the step higher.
Super thrilled with the setup Vid below:

A little update for the post. Went back today with the following updates:
Crank scraper, Canton baffled pan, vacuum pump, added AC back and took off the air filter.
Set car up really soft this time, left at 5200 and ran a 10.55 at 128! Video below:
Going to sell the slicks and try for a 10 on street tires. Couldn't ask for more with this thing.
