Damn good run Mark. How was the DA compared to last saturday? Obviously the track prep had to be better then it was by the 2nd round, that's for sure

Thanks again guys.
Motor is a Cartek built 441 with L92 heads and stock ported intake, I've been calling it an stock L92 intake. (like the ones on the GTO's), hehe is it called an L76?
Heads flowed 330 cfm through the ported intake.
13:5:1 compression/LS7 block
Last weighed it was 3240lbs with me in it.
Runs on 110.

what size cam are you running? what rpm range?

also, what kind of timming are you seeing with that compression?

Thumbs up

Hydraulic cam and naturally aspirated running 9.5s at almost a buck forty ....that's no joke.
Congrats again to you and Cartek Racing.

Technically yes, it is called an L76 (or even an LS3) intake, the L92 intake is the taller truck (Escalade/Yukon Denali) intake.
And it's the G8 GTs that are the ones with your L76/LS3 intake on them...the GTOs had either an LS6 (2004) or an LS2 (2005/2006) intake on them.

I've been playing with the shift points and I've been shifting the 1-2 shift between 6700 and 6900 and the 2-3 shift right around 6500 according to the data logger.
I've tried shifting it lower but mph and ET suffer. For a hydraulic roller it's weird that she likes the higher rpm's and I've been thinking about putting in slightly steeper gears to take advantage of that. (3:73's in there now). Gonna get all the data together and talk to Neal Chance to see if there's anything with the converter that can be done.
Running 26 degrees of timing. Cam is Cartek custom grind.
