Default Fastest LS to the 1/8th on a 10.5
First time out on the 4th pass. Gentle tune up... I hope to shatter every LS record including the big tire records shortly!!

Nice passes.

I hear Keith Berry said he thinks 4.30's are pretty doable with his set up. It already went 171 the 1st time out on 315's.

I hope both of you go stupid fast. Its good for the LS platform!

4.30's... I'll be disappointed with that after we actually push this motor.

Do it! That would be sweet, I think a ls showdown would be a hell of a crowd pleaser! I can race from 2600lbs to 2900lbs like I was testing (Milan weight rules). Pick the venue and if I can keep it off the wall I will be there! Had to throw that out there before somebody else did! LOL!

That would be fun. We can get down to about 2650 in ODR trim. I would assume 10.5 trim with titanium wheelie bars would be in the high 2600 to just under 2700. Let me get through the next couple of races and I'm down with it. I think it would be great for the LS world. I'll keep in touch and we'll line them up. Glad you got it back together. I didn't even know you got into the wall. Sorry to hear that.
