Eventually a dead horse will stop flinching if you beat it enough. Let this thread die already. I know you like to have the last word at everything so go ahead and post some more mindless drivel and be gone.

Actually you did. Just not in so many glamorous words. I'll let you know when my 11.8 pile is ready for prime time. I have family in OH so perhaps we can line up to see how terrible my turd will do in a little motor to motor run?

Or is it you had a someone else do all the work and you just stood by the wayside completely clueless as to what was going on and you have absolutely no idea how or why you had someone do the things you did? Just followed advice like a good lemming? I mean you've already admitted to not even touching the engine for any of those mods so one has to wonder why you are being so cryptic, refusing to fulfill a simple request, all the while bickering while trying to change the subject. Just disclose what you've done to achieve your greatness. This thread should be about the success of your car instead of lamely slinging mud. It's now your time to shine! Start by disclosing the area of the combustion chambers and your static CR and then go from there.

This is a perfect example of poor sportsmanship. All I have done is suggest a different combo in which I know is a proven performer- based strictly on my opinion and experiences and all of sudden pandemonium breaks out. It's not as if I've wished death on anyone's mother for Christ sake...
Z-Rated- If you want to be used as an example the very least you can do is discuss your experiences with your combo and what you had to do to get to the ET/MPH you've disclosed instead of worrying about something completely unrelated to this thread. So far you are the closest illustration to post up. Once again, why is that so difficult?

Right lane:
Mods list was:
LPE LT4 CNC heads/intake (60cc chambers, stock -5 pistons, .020 in the hole w/ .039 gastets= 10.2:1 CR. Combustion chambers were massaged to run on a 383 and to retain a 11:1 CR)
LPE/Acell 211/219 .533/.560 112lsa cam
LPE/Acell 58mm TB
Hooker LT headers and ORY through full exhaust (SLP 2OTL w/ no cutout)
12-bolt w/ 3.73 gears
UD/OD pullies
3750lb race weight using stock 17" wheels up front and 16" '97 wheels w/ ET Streets
SLP Level II suspension with "progressive rate springs" and (I think) Bilstein shocks all the way around. Car lowered 3/4" (at least) from stock.
Stock T/A
Front sway bar still connected
Hotchkis LCA's with no relocation brackets (LCA's installed before they were made)
Hotchkis STB
stock fuel pump
stock fuel injectors
stock ignition
The above slip was the best it ever ran. During the summer months it would run consistent 12.1's and 12.2's at 114mph. Dynoed 370rwhp/355rwtq.
When I had Edelbrock shorties running through the stock Y-pipe with stock cats it ran a best of 12.5 @ 110. That combo dynoed 350rwhp/350rwtq.
Combo was on the car from 30K miles to 110K miles and never had one problem. Power curve behaved just like stock.
If you chose to go with LE I hope for the best and wish you can make the combo run to your satisfaction.

Why is it so difficult for you to just post up a mods list and timeslips?
Or is it you had a someone else do all the work and you just stood by the wayside completely clueless as to what was going on and you have absolutely no idea how or why you had someone do the things you did? Just followed advice like a good lemming?

I do expect you to divert this thread and or my comments once again as usual. Otherwise I will be greatly disappointed.
The other thing I would like to mention is again, is your reaction times. I do believe you were in the left lane on your slip. Even if you weren't, my wife has cut better 60ft. times than the right lane 30 years ago. Hell, she can probably cut a better 60ft. than you, and she hasn't driven a stick in almost 20 years.

I guess it must be far too difficult for you to simply provide mods with timeslips. It's only been asked of you what.. three times now? Why is it so hard? Instead of proving your setup and providing info. you'd rather attempt to skirt the request and spend more time justifying how someone else worked on your car for you. Typical...

I don't think my average times are that hard to believe. This is beyond silly on your part. Thinking that 11.90s is something that is slow for an LE1 is for me, hard to believe. Me personally, am just happy the few times a year I take the car out to the track, it runs half way decent. If it was a solid roller 396, I would be slightly embarrassed with the results. Notice the word *** in embarrassed. That might not be you, would it?
Sorry to the rest of you reading this. Plain and simple, I don't care for the LE bashing. Make your own call, and or pick your own head porter. There are many to choose from.

It's not a matter of not believing your ET's. It's a matter of you disclosing what you had to do to get to your 11.9. Sure your car runs great and has responded well to what you had to do to get there. Why not share your accomplishments instead of this cryptic nonsense and weak attempts to change focus to a setup that has nothing to do with this thread along with name calling. How about it? What are you ashamed of?

I would hope you could run quicker w/ a GM847 cam than the 211/219 cam in an auto no less. What MPH did you run w/ that 11.8? Race weight?
I don't believe me asking an individual for a simple mods list and timeslips who is begging to be recognized as a LE1 reference is taking anything too far.

Damn this horse is still flinching, lol? With all this tenderizing it's going to make some great dog food for some lucky mutt
I just realized that you had a CNC LT4 heads and that LPE cam and ran 12.0 and now you have a SR 396 and you run 11.8 in the same car? Is that right? Did you pay someone for that or did you build it yourself?
