Right at 2800 now. Hasn't been on scale since the swap from 6.0 to 6.2. Its had some weight added to it in spots and removed in others. Mostly the driver. Lol.

Wow, Very nice indeed. Pretty impressive 60ft. That should have you planted in the seat, big time.

That's me in the seat. But the weight is not verified. The weight before aluminum 6.2, with the 6.0 iron block was 2935. That was from 2 different scales, with driver.

You still rocking he cathedral port heads? His aluminum block is helping as well as the cubes. Your heads and iron block are leaving some on the table if the heads are a stock cathedral casting.

super vic installed. updates this weekend. I don't really feel its possible to pick up with this intake on my combo. Cam builder says if I do it and get stall info, I can get stall redone and then it will pick up.

I'm solid on my choice for the Jr. It is on the way. Well, two of them. Doing the old 80 coupe I had and the new 89 coupe with a LY6. Wish I could mile the heads. Just too much involved for that right now.

Thanks guys. I am pleased. Still trying to get the suspension to stay down. Last time we had front struts 4 from full tight, and it still came up about waste high. The thing that sucks is, on a hot track with a radial, its constant tuning of the suspension. In the heat, its got to be run kind of loose.Then as the track gets better, all thru the evening, you gradually tighten it up each round. Keep going up on comp and rebound in rear. LOL . You get to a point you want to go way tight on front and rear, but youre scared to break out, or spin, so take baby steps. lol
