Default First time out with the finished 383

I just installed the new heads and cam this past weekend here are some track results. The car needs to be tuned all times are with a car running on a tune for a 224cam lol

Mods:
HPE built 383 short block
Patriot stage II LS6 heads
Comp 232/236
Pacesetter long tubes
LS6 intake
Bo white throttle body
Lid
SVO 30#'s
true duals
CR: 11.2:1

Car needs to be tuned its never been dynoed tuned just mail order tune and a little tinkering on it that is all

60': 1.79
1/8: 7.63 @93
1/4: 11.85 @117
Car weight: 3,801Lbs

I am very happy with the car i will also post up dyno numbers and new track times once it is tuned i know that is holding me back alot.

I would like to thank Gunnar at Patriot, speed engineering, HPE and thunder racing great companies and would deal with again

Also would like to thank Z'mnypit and Ta Tech for there help

Grocery getter is about right, you had plenty of room to put grocery's inside your car.

Chris, no problem man! Im glad I could help. A good tune, different tires, & some practice & your should hit mid-low 11's easily.
