NOt the LE2 set up its a motor I bought running out of another car

H/C CC306 ran 7.5s at 92 in the 1/8th but im changing a few things (Tune Gears stall and LS1 Lid) so I should get some better times out of it the car it was in.

But that is a photobucket thing it will just be a still picture of the video you post its on youtube as well should probably put that up because it won't take you off the site
