Default 12.1 at 111 MPH today

I have a new best time of 12.1 at 111MPH. That was so close but not the 11.99 I wanted. This time was with DR's, stock manifolds with flowmaster cat back, 4.10's and a 3600vig, moroso CAI.

Tomorrow I start putting the pacesetter long tubes, true duals, and maybe even the cam in.

I would have had it yesterday but I burnt some plugs. I need a fuel pump and maybe I should pull some timing.

Drag radials, 10 bolt with 4.10's and whats listed above. Did I mention I'm pushing the 100,000 mile mark. I guess I forgot to list the 150 dynotune kit(that was in the sig).

just put the long tubes in today and the plugs where fine but the water pump was leaking all over the opti. I hope I don't have to replace it again. Hopefully it will stop popping when it dries out.

Put a little piece of Flashing on it like I did with mine.. it will help prevent that.

I hope mine works when it dries out. I could take it for a ride Monday and **** the neighbers off. The car is a little loud now. Next is true duals or cam which requires buying tools to change springs and set spring height.

If you have a leak out the Weep Hole, it's done.

I was looking at True Duals, but I bought a nice 3-link Rear Suspension setup where the Torque Arm bolts to a Tunnel Brace with a built-in Drive Shaft Loop from UMI Perfromance, so I only have room for a Y-pipe..
It's rated for 750ft/lbs Torque though...
