Default Finally...

I've been in the 13's so long I forgot how much fun it is to go FASTER!

First run was a 12.62@115, then I converted the car to the LS1 coils, computer, etc EFI Connection kit. Got a good tune on the car put down 10 more hp and went to the track and put down a 12.49@117.5 with a crappy 2.1 60 ft. The car has 11's in here, just need a 4000 stall, built tranny and a 12 bolt and I'm there! Oh yeah and better tires, got the nitto's on the rear so for the moment they are doing the job. Eventually the M/T ET Streets will be added.

good stuff. get that rear end buddy. I was lucky to only break my driveshaft before the power got to the rear and broke it and forced me to garage the car. I am in you exact same shoes as far as traction goes and I pushed it and paid the price.
