HERE!!

Pulled 340ish with stock fuel tables with my LT4 conversion.

I am in Phase II of PPMPOS. This consist of some port work on the LT4s and a TH350. We'll see if this little HOT cam can break the 11s like everyone says it cant.

RW is 3500#s, would like to go lighter but that will have to wait. RW in sig was with the bullet only style exhaust, TOO LOUD for my little boy, so I had to add a stock muffler with a cutout.

Thanks man, I've toyed with the thought of hitting it with a 150 shot...want to see if I can get 10s out of it first. If it was on the car I would be accused of "bumping" it...hehehehe. mid-high 130s would be fun for a street car...lol

Rods - Eagle SRP forged.
Pistons - Wiseco 9.5:1 blower pistons, dropped ringlands, coated skirts and tops.
Crank - GM LT1/LT4 replacement forged crank, very nice piece for not a whole bunch of money.

Whole assembly was balanced, blueprinted and with a good tune on the Speedpro and ice in the aftercooler tank should do pretty well...barring any more problems I hope.

No track times yet on the new 396...still waiting on a converter for the TH400. My old stock shortblock went 12.30@111 on motor and 11.22@126 on a small nitrous shot. All times are with a single disc clutch, a six speed, and zero weight transfer. The suspension has now been redesigned for drag racing only.

Whoa, I feel totally small time considering some of the arsenals in here <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

But, for what it's worth, I've got a heads/cam/a4-->m6 swap car built on a students budget <img border="0" alt="[devil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" />

She should be back on the streets by the end of the month with #'s to come shortly after <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />
