Damn, No opinions. Your not running lean, but it does look like your right at 13.0-13.5 most of the time. What did Cory tell you Raul. Did he know you were gonna run nitrous?? What is your timing like, and what plugs are you running??? To bad they don't have HP Tuners for LT1's. With that air/fuel I wouldn't run no more than a 75 shot. I would have went with a 11.8-12.2 a/f to spray what you want to spray. Get you a MAF translator or something like that, so that way you can adjust the a/f at the track.

just emailed him yesterday, he said his sensors that go in the exhasust tips were dirty thus giving him a bad read...I forgot what he had said he double checked it with but I am around 12.8 A/F and good for a 150 shot with out retarding the timing. and good gas.. anymore I would have to retard and use race fuel. I am currently at 33* timing with NGK TR6's. I will be using MSD digital retard and MSD 2 step and DynoTune Nitrous Oxide Time Delay Relay Controller for a 200 shot

I don't know **** about LT1's, but damn that's alot of timing. Good choice on the MSD and TDR controller. When you get the car running again, I suggest we put her on the dyno there at MSP and make sure on the A/F. What's the time frame to putting her back together??

Auburn posi is already on it's way... I had to send the gears back cause I orded the wrong ones. Ordered a 3.73 for an 8.5" instead of the 7.5" . Posi came out in pieces, they told me that the gears look liked they made it but I'm not taking that chance. Funny thing is I know this rear end is not gonna last so I'm alreadys saving up for the 12 Bolt. That posi was new also... only lasted 7 passes
