Atleast let us ls1 tech members have put up some money to help this event out as we are trying to help out.

Good luck. If anyone has even seen pinks you may realize that you could have a 440cid twin 88mm car, but if you don't race it right...you lose. Please please please make it reliable (i.e. no turbo/blower) and talk/race with some brains. All out power does nothing for you.

I'm still for a th400 swap. I haven't seen all that many fast 6 speed cars in the 9's and 8's. I feel it's still a handy cap off the line and yes I know you can still make them fast but you can't beat a 400. And +1 for the 100mm turbo, if you can come up with the funds we shoud just make this car unbeatable. What's the best nation in the world guys? Donation!!!!!!!!

95% of the time the faster car wins. Unless your driver and negoiater are complete jackasses or your car breaks you will win with the faster car. I have seen so many races on pinks where the faster car just plays with the slower car all three races. If we bring some high 9 sec 6 speed car and they are popping off 8.5's we are screwed. Don't bring the knife to a gun fight, go with a big turbo.

If they are going to post that they have an 8.5 sec car maybe we should! Most people bring more power then they let on too.

why a th400 instead of a powerglide ? i say lighten her up to 3,000 lbs or so,glide and whatever setup you decide on. here is my suggestion,take with a grain of salt=
450+ lsx block,big frame 101 or 106mm turbo or f3 or f4 supercharger.
whatever you guy's build i'm sure it will be quick so i think ls1tech will reign supreme.

youre handycapping yourself with a 6 speed....be reasonable and dont build a setup in which after the first 2 races youre asking for 8 lengths because "hey were driving a 6 speed give us a break"
