Default one stupid question,

i now driven my camaro around 120 miles on the new motor,

its not ready yet, but i'm just braking it in, NO WOT yet,

still no oxygen sensors, standart lid and filter, untuned and stock injectors,

but still i am kinda suprised how well it seems to run,

when its was stock and still on 16" stock tyres it spinned the wheels abit in 1st and stopped it in 2nd,

now on almoast new 275/40ZR17.. in second gear around 3k rpm and i push the pedal down about 60% it just start spinning the wheels on dry road and when i shift to 3rd it keeps on spinning for some time and i am around 60-70miles when it starts to hook,

so.. my childish question is.. how much hp would you think its putting down to do that?

Fronts or Rears??? Drivin around without fronts isnt a good idea. and hard to tell power numbers without knowin whats done to it. Is it a stock engine? bigger cam? heads? exc

You spin the tires through 2nd and 3rd @ 60-70 and you havent gone WOT? You must be makin mad power to spin em at partial throttle.
