Default finally hit the track

i bought this car last september bone stock from an older gentleman who put just over 3k on it in the last 6 years. he bought it from his buddy who bought it new. car has just over 83k on it now.

goal for this car is make it to the 11s SI and then do heads cam.

mods.
SLP LID
PACESETERS<-- which fit like **** imo
TSP ORY
LS6 INTAKE
PORTED T/B
MWC SFC'S
BMR LCA'S
FOUNDERS RELO BRACKETS
QA1 COILOVERS W/275 SPRINGS "S/A"
ONE GOOD QA1 OUT BACK OTHER IS LEAKING LOL
VIG 3200 WHICH IS WAY TO TIGHT, ONLY STALLS TO 2600ISH
LOCALLY BUILT 4L60E FROM MAXWELL TRANMISSION <-- BEST TRANS SHOP IVE EVER DELT WITH HANDS DOWN
FROST BASE TUNE. GOING TO GET A DECENT TUNE HERE SOON.
255 M/T RADIAL

car has some weight reduction but in the end its a pig with me in it "340lb" driver with only about a 100lbs taken out of the car.

i bought the trans and converter from a friend for $600 or i would have went straight to a th400 which was the plan to begin with but a deal like that i had to jump on it.

my 3-4 is starting to have troubles so trans is coming out to go back to the trans shop in the next couple weeks which is going to cost me nothing but the time from pulling the trans out. trans is still under warranty. my converter has a free restall still and is going out to be bumped to a 4k.

going to do a sux2bu style ram air on the car and get a good tune. also switching to some strange s/a's on the rear. car is a very slow process as i have 3 kids,wife and a very expensive dog monthly to take care of and only one income lmao!..

happy with the car so far and these runs were on june 10th at cordova dragway. DA was stupid high that day as well. last i had seen from someones phone at the track it was 2988. hopefully theres enough in it after converter change,shock change,sux2bu style ram air, and decent air, and a new tune to meet my goal. hope your not board to death from reading yet....
