Default LT1 M6 guys with 4.11s..

What size tires are you running, how tall, i'm looking into getting some ET streets, now i'm just running bolt-ons & stock cam, its way too tight with a 25" tire, but i want it to still 60ft. decent at the track, are any of you running larger then a 26" & are you happy with it, i do plan on a small NX system down the road, i really just need answers from stock cammed LT1s, because thats what i have, i know a decent cam would change thinks alot with these gears, but thats not in the plains for now, just can't afford it.

Times are in sig thats on a 26X11.5 ET Street. Once you get nitrous I'd suggest a 28" tire.

I bumped up the fuel pressure (for the heck of it) & took it out cruising around, i hammered on it again from a small roll, its not getting traction worth a damn, plus it feels soooooo much better then the other night (better air tonight), i hit 80 real quick, so i'm going with the 26/11.5 ET streets, i'm also getting better at shifting this sucker , i can't beleive i'm not missing 3rd. anymore, the tires that are on there are Cooper Zion 255/40/17s, they are only 24.8" tall, this is why its so steep, i can't wait to get the ETs. I know the car should run real good, i did race one of those newer GTOs the other night coming home from the track, he could'nt pull on me, we finally let off at 115+, damn curve
