I'm new here!!!

I've registered for a little while, but have mostly been lurking. Some quick info, I've owned two f-bodies. A 2nd gen for 8 years and 4th gen for 6 years. The 4th gen is under going a 383 NA build up as we speak. This will be the 4th motor in this '95TA. I don't blow them up, I just change plans a lot. BTW, the car only has 17,500 miles on it. That's because it's spent most of it's life on jack stands.

Anyway, I'm glad to be here.

Later,

Steve.

Thanks guys!!! There is a ton of info here. I've been lurking in the drag racing forums.

Things are in the works for getting the car running. I have all the parts, but don't want to tear it down until the motor shows up. My engine builder (a friend) is running a month behind schedule. After the motor shows up, I'm a driveshaft away from having all the parts.

Here's a peek at the motor specs: 12.25:1 cr, AFR 195 LT1 castings w/ handporting, 258/270 duration .590/.590 lift on 112. What do you think for times? I'm hoping high 11s NA. This is a full weight TA w/ a 9", M6, QA1s and supporting suspension mods (no cage yet).

Later,

Steve.
