That's a bad bitch. Based on the dyno graph, looks like it wasn't done building power either.

I need to start watching the auctions again. Maybe I'll go with a C6 next year instead of a C5.

LME is starting on a LS Next iron 388 for my car. Shooting for 1500ish to tires. Short 3.625" crank is a lot stronger than 4"

I been rippin this bitch 8000 rpm all season, hasn't skipped a beat. The sound that motor makes up there is music dreams are made of.

Now that the C7 has been released, it should be an easy find. Keep an eye on auto trader as many salvage yards and depots post adds.

Solid Roller, Big Turbo ? Sounds like some serious goals

Great work on the car man I love everything about it I Subscribed
How much boost? Looks like it was still making power with more RPM Maybe 7000rpm?
What size tires and brand those seems 20s?

Wade and Nick did they used to own Silver Nitrous Z28 and ran 1st LS engines to the 8sec years ago ?

Nice car and impressive for what you have in it!!

I don't think Nick's car is the fastest small block though, at least in the 1/8. Andy Jenson has gone high 3's in the 1/8 with a small block 427 and a single 106mm IIRC.

Thanks brother, I will post up some more pictures today. We are running just over 20psi and starts to flatten out on the dyno around 7K. You can still feel it pulling harder on the street with proper load .. pushing to 8000rpm. Been running the same belt for 2 seasons which goes a long way for those who know Centri blowers.

Yes the same Wade and Nick ... those vids on page one are actually Nicks new 10.5 car.

He has the small block 10.5 record. I am sure lighter cars may have gone faster, but he has set all the class records. Everyone races Cecil County rules these days.

You are correct. Jenson's car is a pro mod/ top sportsman that weighs nothing I'm sure. Being the fastest small block in 10.5 is saying a lot....let alone beating the 600+ cubic inch twin turbo cars. Impressive to say the least.

The most impressive part is this was their first season running that class with a brand new combo.

Decided to keep the velocity stack on the car, so I tacked it on and welded the bung for a small PRE blower methanol jet

Very nice. My Ysi z06 made 1047 on 18psi with some belt issues. Stepping up to the 10 rib now. Friends Ysi c6 made 1090rwhp on 21psi on a forged 376. A ysi vette is damn fun. I'm hoping to break 1100rwhp once I get the 10 rib on.
