I think he nuked it.

PS. I ran 11.10 in 90 degree temps, 1100' physical elevation. Not far off. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

He didnt nuke it. He wanted to try a new setup. Terry dont even try to compare your car to stealths. Its in a different league.

I dont know where your getting your false information. He went 415 because he wanted to get rid of his heavy iron block and make more hp. If you want to argue with him go right ahead...you can find him on here or the corvette forum.

The owner of the car is Stealth c-5 and it was run at Englishtown Raceway park in New jersey.

He also raced against a 415 cid lingenfelter corvette and beat him.

Car was driven right off carteks dyno and straight to the track. Driver had no seat time with it. So I think those numbers are quite impressive.

I thought Stealth had an iron-block 408ci? What happened to that motor?

Ouch. Damn timing chains! I need to put a double roller on mine, still have a stock one too.

Congrats on the excellent results!

Julio.</strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I'm not trying to start a big flame war over this; I'm just posting facts from www.wunderground.com. The car runs awesome no matter what! I checked out the website above for conditions on June 30th in Atco, NJ. It lists the following at 11:54 a.m.: (over 40 minutes after the run according to the time on the timeslip)

temp: 82.94*F
dewpoint: 66.02*F
humidity: 56%
pressure: 30.21

Atco sits at 146' actual elevation. If you run this through the D.A. calculator found here, you get a D.A. of 1,663'. How did you come up with a 2,500'+ D.A., and where did you get the 96 degree temp that was written on the timeslip? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" /> I have a hard time believing that it was 96 degrees at 11:09 in the morning. I know someone that was very close to Atco yesterday, and he said it was in the mid-80's for a high. What gives? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" /> Like I said, this is not to take away from the setup. It runs friggin awesome! 1,600'+ D.A. is nothing that I'd consider awesome, but it's definitely better than the 2,500'+ being spoken of. A 10-second slip is a 10-second slip, but why is there such a huge discrepancy between the conditions listed and what multiple weather sites report?
