Quickest All-Motor on regular radials?
Re: Quickest All-Motor on regular radials? At least you don't have to worry about excessive crankcase pressure <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> Didn't lose any wrenches during your last install did you? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Re: Quickest All-Motor on regular radials? Sorry to hear about your motor trouble <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />
I guess it's time for an iron block with some nasty gas <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Re: Quickest All-Motor on regular radials? Damn Tony that blows! (pun intended)
That's not too shabby for 18" street radials. How was it on the big end? Pretty stable?
Hope the new motor can hold together for you for a while. 700 RWHP would be nice....are you craving a bottle? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Re: Quickest All-Motor on regular radials? It's a bummer when the block breaks (happened to me too). You know there's much more wrong at that point. Oh well, on to bigger and more powerful things.
700rwhp with a power adder is easy. Strong stroker and nitrous. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
I've gone 11.25@126 N/A on standard radials (245/60/15) but, not with an LS1. My car is also lighter than yours and it had a 200-4r in it.
Good luck with the better stuff. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Re: Quickest All-Motor on regular radials? Hey Tony, tell Jayson to sit down and think of something that's gonna last a little longer than 3 weeks <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" />
