Damn good times for that weight! A little more dialed in and you'll have an easy 9 second car with all the creature comforts!

Got it, thanks! That's what i'm thinking on my new project since i will only be running a 3.5" downpipe.

BTW: I'm about ready to pull the trigger on an OFI LT1 kit. It looks like they work quite well.

I dunno, sounds like you drove through a slight time rift, I hear that happens if Reynolds a lot

You should keep it where its at and run the 10.00 thing at the year one race coming up. I wont it last year and it pays well plus you can do the car show as well..

nice!!!!

cable, keep it at boost level... work on that 60ft and for sure you'll get a 10.0 or 9.99 run..

awesome!!! This only kills me knowing how well your kit is running and mine isn't done yet... oh well, at least my alternator is better than yours.... i think!!!
