Sounds like it's running good! What track did you do this at?

I'd bet it could use a little more converter though. Take a little bit of weight out of it too. Start with the easy stuff like the front swaybar, spare tire and jack, etc.

I run 93 on the street but always run a good mix of race fuel at the track I just won't gamble that way.

i ran this time through a magnaflow catback exhaust.i wonder would it be worth buying the 4inch mufflex catback to improve my et.i dont want the true duals because i will be limited to run just bullet mufflers.and also no cutouts.and also would ssra cold air be better than my k&n cold air.this week coming up i will get a retune from pcmforless based off my wideband o2 readings on three dyno pulls.this is what pcmforless has told me to do to improve my tune.also i will adding a adjustable torque arm to help my 60 feet time.then next week i will buy a nitrous outlet plate system.thanks for all the help.

Old thread, but I missed this one somehow. Let me know when you are going back to the track and I'll try to make it there. There aren't alot of LT1's around (except for clapped out stock cars) and it will be nice to see yours run. If you ran those times at Headhunters then you will run even better at Twiggs or Silver Dollar. I've seen a car run 3 tenths better on the same weekend just because the track is better at Silver Dollar.
