Well I had my opportunity to take the catfish/Camaro Z28 to Cecil county last night. First I have to say they prepped the track better than I've seen in almost a YEAR down there! I couldnt believe how well it was prepped but when you see cars running low 5's in the 1/8mi for the yellowbullet series she must be working good so LUCKY ME for that.
If you're curious of what the car is, modifications see the What will it run/dyno thread 412rwhp 383rwtq.

First pass right off the street tire pressure at 19psi warm, 1st gear burnout till decent smoke from tires, 4000rpm clutch dump.
Car dead hooked and bogged bad.
60ft-1.752
330ft-5.015
1/8mi-7.662
1/8mph-93.81
1000ft-9.913
1/4mi-11.801
1/4mph-120.19

2nd pass, I aired the tires up to 23psi hot for a new starting point, 1st gear burnout until fair amount of smoke again, 5000rpm clutch dump, car spun but it was a pulling spin not like a rev limiter spin the rpms stayed up and car pulled out with the nose up all the way.
60ft-1.912
330ft-5.058
1/8mi-7.636
1/8mph-96.03
1000ft-9.845
1/4mi-11.701
1/4mph-122.03

3rd pass I aired the tires down to 21psi hot, did a 2nd gear burnout until light smoke from the tires, 5000rpm clutch dump, car hopped hard twice, bogged and went on its way.
60ft-1.758
330ft-4.888
1/8mi-7.447
1/8mph-96.71
1000ft-9.639
1/4mi-11.484
1/4mph-122.76

4th pass I aired the tires to 19psi cold due to long clean up, 1st gear burnout till decent amount of tire smoke. Clutch dump at 5000rpms and the car bogged lightly.
60ft-1.711
330ft-4.873
1/8mi-7.438
1/8mph-96.49
1000ft-9.635
1/4mi-11.482
1/4mph-122.44

5th pass I removed the air filter because I curious, tires at 20psi hot, 1st gear burnout until a little bit of tire smoke, 5000rpm clutch dump. this time they had me sit there at the line, then backed me up, had to redo the burnout so the car was hotter. Car bogged pretty good on this run aswell.
60ft-1.727
330ft-4.898
1/8mi-7.453
1/8mph-96.79
1000ft-9.642
1/4mi-11.483
1/4mph-122.79

6th and final pass. I dropped the tires to 19psi hot, 1st gear burnout until a little bit of tire smoke, 5500rpm not a complete clutch dump a slightly slower dump, car came out slightly with a bog but picked up quickly.
[b]60ft-1.653
330ft-4.800
1/8mi-7.360
1/8mph-96.73
1000ft-9.550
1/4mi-11.394
1/4mph-122.69

I have to note figuring out the super lagged tach that was hard to keep shift points in check because 1st gear the 7000rpm rev limiter would hit just over 6000rpms, 2nd gear was about 6400rpms rev limiter, 3rd gear was around 6600rpm rev limiter. Needless to say obviously I nicked the rev limiter many times throughout the night.

GO PRO video and Devilish has video of the last 2 passes to come soon.

It doesnt have the A/C compressor in, has the condensor etc in there though. It doesnt have the top half of the rear seat cause I need a bolt and one seat belt buckle to finish putting it in and no spare tire.

Car weighs with me in it approx 3450-3500lbs She's not skinny!!

wow you must have not been joking about the prep at cecil then. Those are pretty good number for a cam only car.

Zturd

I pretty much **** excellence! LOL! J/K Not sure who was more surprised with the ET the car was able to pull. Cecil is a very fast track if prepped well. The car's suspension worked pretty well also. Though I didnt hear one person say they had traction issues. More bogs and broken cars than anything. Hats off to CECIL's prep.... now keep doing it!!!!

what do you run for a shifter on the 4th gen cars ?

Also what gear and tire did you have under it ? Nice driving!

Zturd

iTrader: (12)

The 90's version Pro 5.0 shifter...she's good for it!
Rear gears are 4.10s, rear tire is a 275/60/15 Mickey Thompson DR basically just under a 28in tall tire. Car would 60ft easier and MPH more with a 27in tall tire, not sure a 26in bias ply would keep the rev limiter away at the end of the track in 4th gear.

275 5015 ia 26 tall 2756015 is 28 tall

I thought tyler had the 325 50 15 on his car before you got it

Zturd

iTrader: (12)

Thats how much I pay attention!!! I'm pretty sure thats not a 325 though. So 275/60/15

I believe your title is alittle misleading, rumor has it you have a set of 243 LS6 heads on that "cam only" catfish???

Great runs bruce...didn't even know you picked up a camaro.

Curious though what is the reasoning behind your 1st gear burnouts? I would think you'd need some more tire spin but of course track was hooking for you last night. Either way the car hooked great that last run tire looked like it came up but quickly came back down.

What exhaust is on the car sounds good!

Zturd

iTrader: (12)

Do your homework they are stock heads loser!!! Check even closer I have a down graded LS1 in my 2002 Camaro not a LS6 like what came in many of them WITH 243 heads. The motor is from a corvette so it must be faster right? Dont get Butt hurt Andy that my wittle shelf cammed Z28 ate your cars lunch that you've been playing with for years. Its amazing what some know how will do for you huh!!! SMOOCHES my slow friend!

Even if it had 243 heads it still only put down 412 if that's no bs
