i wouldnt advise spraying her off the line now.. if you do hook, your rear isnt gonna like it. I'd just run all motor most of the time now on out.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

sell the n20 and get a cam <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

also i was really against et streets.. but try a set of 26/10.5/15's and just air them to 21pounds and leave around 1200-1300 slightly rollin into the throttle. If you dont flash the verter to much it will be easier on your rear. I left around 1800 with the cam <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

good luck man! let me know how she does all motor!

Thanks for your thoughts. what about cam and spray with a 12 bolt and et streets? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> . Just kidding. I have thought about the LS6 cam and intake but keeping the LS1 heads. Also need headers still. Problem is those things will only make the traction issues worse not better.Loosing the spray is not totally out of the question though. I have seen lots of bolt on cars running better than my current best nitrous pass. Any other ideas ?? New times will be posted as soon as the track opens.

Default Any Advise??

I lowered the car with eibach's prokit and am trying to find a way to get traction at the track. Have not gotten relocation brackets yet,but will be running 315/35/17 drag radials. with current mods any advise guys??? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" /> I want to spray off the line like last year but now have a convertor and think it would be ugly. Looking for 60ft times in the 1.5-1.6 range on motor and better on bottle. HELP! <img border="0" alt="[evil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" />
