No spray yet

memo & fred when they took my car to henderson Jan 29th for the re tune...They took it to the SA Race Way afterwards for a couple of runs. that 11.8 was one of the 3 passes the other 2 were 12.10's. When the brought it back and ran it at the track here there went the rear end. The intake was just a gasket match..nothing major

as for the LT4 block, it's a 4-bolt main LT1 block (a 'vette block)
and the 4 bolt LT1 block is the exact same casting as the 2-bolt, just machined for more bolts.
