I was thinking the same thing. If that thing took a quick right turn there towards the wall that would have been a video we'd be seeing on the news instead of LS1tech.

That is only during the No ET races. Not during regular racing.

Car looks great man! Hope you can keep it down during the launch. Cause there is plenty in it once you get it going.

Yeah, but what's the difference if the car turns towards the wall?

Compression is more then 7.5:1 less then 12:1
We are creating a couple of tunes for it. So far it has been on 118 for the sake of safety. 93octane tune and possibly an Ethanol tune will follow.
She is back in the shop right now, for the nextt round of minor upgrades. We are going to ring the most out of the current combo.

Are the valve springs on this the Manley 221435-16? If so what was the installed height?

Thanks!
