I'm not getting defensive, just trying to make you happy.
Yes that applies to the bottom end also, even the rod bolts.

I was speaking for my car.I guess the 2001 cars had better rod bolts.
500runs at 7k on each shift and counting.
It's going to be a sad day when my factory head bolts come out.

My motor is a 99 so I had crappy rod bolts stock.. I have ARP rod bolts now.
I don't daily drive my car but it is setup to drive on the street.. I have street wheels/tires and mufflers..
I ordered a torque arm from alston today, It should be here on thursday..
I will be looking to go racing again this sunday.. I have a few things in mind to try to duplicate the 1.31 60' and hopefully see if I can hit a lower 10.3..
Thanks for all your support!
I'll update my website as soon as I have a few moments of free time. The mods list on the car is really quite basic.. Intake, exhuast, trans, rear, wheels, tires, suspension... just all the normal boltons (every one of them).. and weight reduction.

You guys need to remember that my car is an M6 at 3250 lbs with a motor set up for nitrous. You can tell that my 136.8 MPH shows the power,just hard to get the ET with my type of setup.

Wish I could have been there, congrats again. You were pretty pumped when you called me.
To the skeptics, you might want to really look at the numbers. Keith and Sean both dynoed around 415rwhp cam only thru open headers. That's pretty consistent. Keith is maybe 150 lighter, but He also has like a 8" 5200 stall compared to Sean's nitrous converter. All in all, the numbers are all in line with reality. I was there when Keith went low 11's, and then 10.9 that one day. I rode down and did some spotting and just supported a friend.
I think we are past the point in the community where we immediatley put on the skeptic hat. After all, most of the longtimers know each other and frankly talk on the fone too.
Let me know when the torque arm comes in, that one you have now is ready for the dumpster!
