improved racing, look a few pages back for pics in info on it.
It alot better then stock, I haven't looked down at oil pressure yet at the track to see, I'll try to get a gopro to pick it up.
at the moms event, low 11's but super consistent, 11.22,11.21 11.18 11.15 11.20, it was spinning 1.7 60's. It was in the low 90's and track temps were 150 I was told. But I did this week go a bunch off 11.0s and a 10.98 and a 10.98 at 127.5ish. Thats the 1st time the cars gone 10.9 in street mod, so Im happy. Still spinning best 60" was a 1.6X turning the 2step down to 5500 form 5800. And of last year I was getting low 1.5s and hi 1.4s with it 6200 and 6500, moving the shock setting around (in the normal range), and tire pressure but I know what the car likes. But could keep the DR form spinning on the hit. DR are at the wear bars so think it might be them.
Mike at Newera went a 11.4 121 is the ZL1 camaro with a 1st protype intake, he tuned it, and put DR on it (smaller then stock) that night. Last time it went a 12.0 120 bone stock
Just remembered I lowered the front mount of the TA one hole, over winter so that might be it too. I haven't missed a gear yet, and the cars super consistent. I'm only WOT shifting the 3-4 most of the time. I guess I should do the 1-2 next, the cars moving at a lower speed so thats the best place to gain.
Got a new intake came in the other day, along with another one. No more wipers

Any tips for getting the wipers off!!!
haven't touched mine. 2001 no winters with about 80K, but like everything else on my car its not going to go easy. The Few times Ive helped on other cars It was a HUGE pain in the ***. I dont think Ive ever gotten both wipers off like GM says too, easily with tools. Its beating the **** out of them, and chewing them all up.

I have a super vic, but its big for stock heads. This is sized alot better for sure.
The holley cast ram thing looks good too (port size) But been waiting for one for 6 months now. and "2 weeks" for like 3 months now...all winter, its june already.
I bought this from Newera, Mike had it the next day after I said to get me one
And the LSXRT I can run in the MIR WRF all motor class-
Induction: Engine must be EFI. All OEM intakes are permitted. The only aftermarket intakes permitted are: BBK intakes, Typhoon intakes, and Fast 78mm, 90mm, 92mm, and 102mm intakes
Ya, I looked it up and they have a tool, and some used a battery terimal puller sorts fits too, they got to work. Mine are stuck, I'll try to get a tool tomarrow

The battery tool works, they also make a specific wiper arm puller. With either, use some aero kroil or Pb blaster, soak them, let them sit, then attach the puller and tap with a hammer lightly...

The only car i helped put them on gets 1.25 60ft on 275/60 DR all day long. he only used half inch for carb to clear hood. We just adjusted the coilovers to get back at same ride height. told few others about this running roots blower didnt have any problems and i think stangkilr made some too on his turbo build

got side tracked to finshing cutting last night, but started. Its gona be close but I think it will fit. Got the HF body saw, and cuts ok, its not variable, just 100% on, But has a small base so you can cut right along the glass easy. Using that and a jigsaw, no sawzall, but I'm really good with both.
Got the wimpers off, they were reall stuck. The tool was gona break for sure I thought. The final POP was worse then some ball joints loud.not big bang but little gun shot pop. I really thought the windshield broke, or the wiper post cracked off the shaft or something. The tool only fit under the diver side, the pass (middle) was to tight under. So had to tap the lower foot under the arm from the side, then pull it off normal with the tool. Soaked them in PB blaster for maybe 24hrs, tapped on them a few times, kept the puller tight and tapped on that, ended up using big channel locks on the ****, and hitting it down hard.
The hood should be fine. I think I left a 1/4 metal past the glass, But oince I cut the bottem out and get it to go back I can see. I need to be able to un do the trans Xmember and let it tip back for track swaps so I want to have to room, without pulling the intake to tip it back. The windshield is a little off the metal, sitting on like 1/8-1/16 of the black sealer so you can cut the metal flush, even Back cut it a little behind the end of the glass I looks like. I took some good pic with my real camera, if it fitting (all the parts) to the car, and the specs of the intake, runner CSA in/out, lenght, taper, ect. And mocked it up on stock heads. I'll post up later
Pics I sent to mike (new era) last night. haha
