Get the Vats programmed out.. that is what I am doing. That's probably the problem. I am having it Tuned right before I start it. ****, with the Harness I built, I can have it tuned right now..

Depends on who you know and what deals you catch, ontop of the amount of work you can do yourself. My goal is 10sec, lets see how much I have to spend to get there. This $3k was just a buffer on top of what I already get paid.

Keep us posted, I am sure it will be interesting.
What is in plan is a 402ci(might go 408ci) L92 built from a truck 6.0l Iron Block. It's going with a pretty good size Cam, might be a Magic Stick 3 from Texas Speed.
Some might call me a traiter to the LT1, but my **** is all self-built, I just want to cream some LS1's, with the LT1 look..
