quickest stock ls longblock? this might be it!!

many of you know about the fairmont but i will give the high points.
$250 5.3 with unknown miles, zo6 cam. mp70 turbo. turbo 400 with brake, msd ignition with 2 step, megasquirt for fuel and boost control from diyautotune. 8.8 rear with track loc posi and 28spline axles. hp motorsports bolt on rear suspension uppers and lowers and antisway bar. mt drag radials.
a few things that could make the car quicker. stock front k member, stock front shocks, stock front control arms. still have bench seat, full interior other than carpet, still have heater, iron block. turbo is completely maxed. 3200lbs with driver.
sorry for 1/8th mile numbers. we will be hitting up the 1/4 next week. probably only get one good run before they ask us to leave.

the car has been a lot of fun and very reliable.

BTW, how much does the 2 step help on building the boost with the Th400?

the turbo is done no more power to be had there unless on a smaller enigne at higher rpm. there might be a hair more in the 60' and another .1 or .2 by droping weight if we wanted to go that route.
2 step and t brake are amazing. we can build as much boost as we want. we left at about 11psi on that run. we did have the 2 step set at only 3700rpm. if we bumped it up to 4500rpm or so i bet we would be leaving at 14psi. we might try that next time. might smoke the tires or break something. track was dead hooking that night.
