depending on gearing and track/traction, sounds about right. Maybe even low 10s. sounds like a nice new setup you're planning

^Naw I got a good deal on a motor and decided to ditch the old technology, bbc can produce amazing power but not near the efficiency or practicality of an lsx. Its going to be a learning experience for me and a very unique setup, I dont think there are any ls3 3rd gens out there. It should be done within about 5 months, but ill be deploying pretty soon so I wont be driving it for a while. I plan on doing everything myself(as i always have) and doing everything right this time(as i havent before). I will begin posting pics pretty soon and I am going to document every step of the build with pics and video. Ive never done anything this serious or costly so i am very excited to see how it turns out, i guess patience is the key at this point!
