Ah yes of course the follow everyone else crowd.

I didn't see that post in its original form, it was tuff to see everything tho becuz it seems that on top of closing it which I can understand, they go back and delete original syntax, like some kind of editor going back to undo time and all the damage it may incur on us if we read it !?? makes no sense, but whatever.

Automatics.....yawn......, shift kits, internal clutches, but the governor, and the shift points, and the stall converter, and my PCM, and Damm it broke down again, took it to my new best friend at the local shop he rebuilt it to 600hp specs this time, and asbestos clutches and kevlar, and added 3 more than stock, and the hydraulic circuit we changed the little pinballs, and what does it mean when I go into reverse and it doesn't move?

It's a hilarious routine that for its leisure you will have to have deep pockets and a chitload of patience.

I'll put it to you like this, I waited and waited and waited, until I found her with an M6. And if I wouldn't have found her with an M6, I would have never bought.

Hell I've seen built 305's kill 4 speeds, the only automatic champ in my book is TH350/400 but even they're not above saying "hey we ran that last mustang good didn't we? man that was fun!!, oh but hey we're off on a date, told her you'd be there by 9? oh well, go ahead put me in Reverse, jokes on u bud, stay home and **********"

Auto's they're like a ticking BOMB but ppl swear by them. Untill they get the bill, and then one day, one day, and I can guarantee it, cuz I've lived it, one day when they flip the bill and have to go back not too much later, and have to flip it again, then...... THEN, and only THEN will it sink in. Now of course the silver spoon crowd spends the majority of their lives singing the Smurfs la la la la la la la laaaaaaaaaaa anyway so when such things happen they're not much bothered. My power to ya if your bank's got no problems with that expense but until then for me? Make mine an M6.

When I go down to 3rd on the highway and your pegging your gas all the way down 2 or 3 times cuz kickdown just isn't coming on, I'm in gear, and wether I would have wanted to grant you mercy or not, it's way too late for all of that, cuz the gforces pinned me back and I'm steady clocking the road up front. And truthfully it's never been any different at a light.

Huh? I was not disputing your car at all. Your friend brought your car up to brag about it for no reason as your car has nothing to do with a thread involving a recently swapped manual with a cam in an 1/8 mile prediction thread.

Your friend started off this by saying:

I don't care about your car enough to analyze it or try to start a problem with it. I was not taking anything from your car. It is awful hard to copy and paste what I said considering the thread was butchered with editing for no reason.



Your friend posted about being in the 11's with stock clutch.

Earlier in the day I read this post of yours:

PP/TOB<--not a good set up. It doesnt have enough clamping force.
The comment of mine that started this rediculous thread:

As your friend said you went 11's with stock clutch, that is why I said I belive it was not stock. He was refering to you generally going 11's with a stock clutch, I was refering to your 11.8 pass. That has nothing to do with me doubting you, it was a simple misunderstanding. Your clutch has nothing to do with the consistancy of a manual transmission or a pointless guess thread about 1/8 mile times. I think your choice to make a thread about your car for any doubters (when in reality your point was to start something against me) when I wasn't doubting you in the first place is pathetic and rediculous. There is no need to make another thread about your car considering there are plenty of threads to view regarding your mods, your info is all over this and multiple other message boards. Furthermore I wasn't avoiding this post, I clicked on it to read your original post to see what was up, I had no idea you were trying to say something regarding my post since I was not taking anything away from your car in the first place. I also did not continue to read the posts in this thread because as I stated earlier I am not interested in your car, my goal is not to be the fastest SI LT1 in the country, I have no intention of gutting any of my cars. I am not taking anything away from what you done, it is defintely an achievement. A simple PM would have cleared this matter up.

You are nothing more then a high school punk.

You create a thread with this question:

1. 6 speed swap
2. 224/228 .510/.510 114lsa cam

it is still on the stock tune but runs great and looked good when we logged it. last time i ran it before those mods it went 8.7 on drag radials. what do you guys think it will run with about a 2500 rpm launch and those mods?
I simply tell you that there are a ton of variables in play: DA, track, your mods, your driving skill, how your car runs etc and that none of us can give you a great input and that all anybody could offer would be a wild guess especially considering you just swaped from an automatic to a manual which really makes it imposible to predict how you will run. I told you the better bet would be to take it to the track and see for yourself. You then took offense to that and decided to act your age for which several other members tore you apart. The info I posted in that thread is nothing earth shattering, its pure common sense.

Lets review the posts in question:

If it was false, then anything I said wouldn't be true. Which, in fact, it is. The Jet Hot coating protects rust corrosion for what, 50 miles? My headers started to rust immediately, and so did many others that have them. The Jet Hot coating is not made to resist rust corrosion, no matter how much they say it does. Many of the people the buy them thinking they won't rust are in for serverly disappointing results.
I never posted that "I knew everything" Anybody can very easily look at the thread regarding coating that is near the top of this section to see exactly what I said. I did however post that both of your statements are bs.

But would like to first ask Camaroguy, what are your mods and how fast are you running, ET/MPH<--this is the key.....

First off the PM I wrote was not as nice as this post was.....

The clutch in the manual trans has A TON to do with consitancy. if it is not set up right then you are screwed.

And this all does happen to revolve around me, the trans is coming from my car going into Austin's car, then I will be doing the tuning (PCM) for the car and then if he is able to the suspension will be worked on and the car will run the number.

And the car went several 11 passes with stock clutch components and I really believe it would have went the 11.80 pass with the stock clutch seeing as how the stock PP was not holding enough for the stage 3 disk to make full contact.

And then telling people they dont know what they are talking about when they have actually accomplished what you said could not be done and accomplished it in more than 1 car, that is dumb. It is people like you that quit sharing on these boards. There is no need in blanket broad statements that it cant be done or whatever.

I will continue to rebuttle...

Why you gotta say he is a punk? You dont even know him. Austin is actually one of the more social guys I have met in his age group. Him and several of his other friends that I have been able to meet are actually well respected young guys. They dont have the 'I'm a bad ***' attitude that make one want to They are a little misguided but I am helping them with that

Of that simple question you could have said you didnt know or you could have just stayed out of the thread. But not knowing who he is or who he is working with you have really set some things off.

Good luck and when you want to run the number give me a call.

Wow You are cool


You must be one insecure **** to have to make yet ANOTHER thread about your car. Defend it to the death! Even if nobody is challenging it.

No, it still doesn't have anything to do with you. By you putting your trans in his car does not make it a magical transmission. You cannot compare your teams expert driving and shifting ability with years of experience to a teenage high schooler who just put a manual transmission in the car. As again stated I never said a manual CANT be consistant, the shifts will not be more consistant then an auto.

And again, with all the knowledge that you have, what is it that you are able to accomplish in the 1/4 mile?

I don't need your advice or want to nutswing you and copy your striped out car. As stated earlier staying SI or stripping down cars is not in my interests. Hmm well if you could see the posts that were deleted that would answer why I would say he is a punk. Obviously those are deleted so blindly you are protecting him

If he is working with such great company and such experienced people in the F Body community why would he need to get on LS1 tech and ask what people think his setup will go if you should clearly have better imput since you are working on his car?

You should ride down here and let us school you on the manual trans.
