need to update your sig what made you switch from the LT1-R? I have that clutch waiting to go in my project.

Can you give specs on your T56? Is it a shelf face plated unit?
You running a pump/cooler on it? You can PM me if you don't want the details out in the open. Just want to make sure I don't miss anything on my setup since your obviously does work and handles the power.

You're the man Ray! Much respect for someone who goes against the grain.

I love the view in the car watching those shifts hammer home. That tranny has got to be insanely tough.

as far as the clutch change while it was my favorite clutch ive used yet we knew we were near maxing it at 1150whp and I have plans to throw more power at it in the near future so I took the opportunity while the car was down to upgrade to something capable of 1500+. car will be seeing a turbo upgrade in the near future.

the trans is a faceplated unit with gforce gearset built by rpm. it does have a trans pump on it its a must with anything over 700 imo. amsoil atf inside. the previous best of 8.54 was on faceplated stock gearset and viper shaft from rpm

60' was 1.32 so there is lots to gain there. first time out on some brand new shocks I aint quite got them figured out yet. we have been 1.25 on the back tires last year so we get back down to that the car has .2x's in it as it sits

Yeah you honestly have to see this car in person, thay thing looked like a rocket!

Ray it looked like the whole car was working alot better this year as being more consistent and car juss looked like it stayed very planted and straight for the most part. You beat some fast cars, very impressive and I felt you had a good chance on winning if ya didn't red light.

Awesome car, love to see a gear banger out there getting it. Looks like you subscribe to the "Neverlift" theory of racing! Nice driving in that second pass.

My friend has an old school 1969 real Z28 that he's been banging gears in since new, thought you might like to see it for fun.

Watch his left leg...not used too often as you will see. lol

Congrats on the new record! I was watching from the stands and didn't think that pass was going to be as quick as it was but that thing was moving on the big end! I will be looking forward to seeing some runs with it turned up a little more and with the turbo change. Cracks me up every time watching everybody's reaction when its up on the two step. That never gets old!

Absolutely love watching this car go down the track! What rpm are you leaving at? How much timing are you running on the 2step and how much boost is it building?

leaving about 4100. we try to leave on about 7lbs but there are no boost controlers on the car so depends how quick the lights drop. the pass at night lights were slow and we left on 15lbs which is why it spun so bad
