Default My junk yard 4.8 ls powered 240z at the track last night.

posted this in the drag section but i know some of you dont visit there,

took my junk yard bottom end 4.8 to the track for the first time tonight. from my searching and asking around i believe this is the new record for a 4.8 using all stock parts in the bottom end. car is running on pump gas with meth, daily driven full interior , leather seats , stereo ect true street car. tonight i was running 18 psi, i have had it as high as 19 on the street but felt that was pushing it so i turned it down a few days ago. i had a ls6 in the car last season and ran a best of 9.7 so this new pb makes me very happy.
my number is p108


bummed no one got my fastest pass on video but my buddy did later get another pass on camera and here is the video.
