Default 2000 ls1 sonoma first 1/4 mile

2000 sonoma 5.3 swap
Motor is a stock bottom end 5.3
Shaved stock heads .030
Trickflow .585 .585 cam 112 lsa
Ls1 f body intake
Fbody acessories.
1.5 shorties
3500 stall converter
Stock f body 4l60e
One piece drive shaft
Explorer 8.8 narrowed 3" with 4:30 gears 31 spline
Caltracs

Weighs 3580 with me.

Best pass was 12.42@108 on a 28x10.5 et slicks on draglites and stock f body snow flake 16x8 wheels. 1.7 60 foots. Spins at the start off the foot brake


Would like to hit 11.9. Going to relocate battery and put skinnies on the front. Switch to a 27 et street

Truck has zq8 suspension on it. So it's really hurting weight transfer.

Any ideas on how to get into the 11s.

Truck is an extended cab

Yep,
put a 150 shot of NOS on the button!!! As soon as you know its hooked, you press the button and then presto, you'll be close to 10's, I was running mid 11's on motor, then the 150 shot put me in the 10:90's !!

what rpms are you turning at the finish line? are you even going into 4th?


If you still have room to go on gears, drop to 26's on the et drags.


will get you higher rpms and quicker gear changes


and get a set of caltracs for it.
