Nice run man! What RPM are you crossing the line at? do you have a 2-step in that car? Time for a new fuel pump or what?

Well to be honest. I thought I had enough gas left in the tank. Apparently I was wrong. I'm an idiot. Yes I have a launch controller. If I was to turn down the music you would be able to hear it better. I think I cross the line at 6200 maybe.

Nice runs

Man there's a bunch of fast 6-speed 355" LT1s showing up all of a sudden, I'm loving it!

Time for me to make it back to the track so I can be one of the many mid-11 sec, 350-355ci, 6-speed cars too

I agree, but Blind Ambition is pretty cool too.

Those LE1s have the stock valves or the bigger valves?

Nice job, don't change the cam too quick, remember I ran 11.20@120MPH N/A with a very similar setup, (LE2's, CC306, 355 and an auto) but that cam loves some n2o too. Good luck and nice times. Clint

congrats on the track times. That thing is MOVING.

Very impressive for a 6 speed car and in expensive heads.

Good job.

In a couple of weeks I am going to try to hit mid 11.4s with the m6 before I switch to a TH350. Quick question. When I do install the TH350 it will only have a stall of 3600(Circle-D) because I will be using nitrous. If I am only racing all motor will this lower 3600 not be able to beat my m6 since the stall is not the recommended 4400 for all motor racing?

Great times I'm glad 11.50's are attainable on the set-up I am going for...So out of curiosity, seeing as I have a T56 car now, whats the deal with no lifting these things with a good clutch, good rear, and radials? Is that a no no on a stock tranny at his power level as I saw you werent no lifting it...Just cause that will cut a tenth or to out right there... And you look like a bad *** doing it...

Yea its gonna be a dog on motor but it will run like a bat outta hell on spray. But nobody likes to get 2 converters so you will be straight with just a 3600 for spray. I would imagine this isnt your daily and you wont be doing some outrageous street driving on it.

My buddy uses a 4000 on nitrous and it runs retarded on both motor and spray. Might meet in the middle with a good 4000 nitrous converter... just an idea
