My brother has one in the works, but it is pretty far off from the point of needing a tune. As in still in the process of pulling the rotary far. Hopefully by next year it'll be a part of one of these all day tuning sessions.

Low 9s is probaly going to be a good number to run, just need a good track like norwalk.
The new moser is kickass as well, lots of adjustment on the sweet torque arm.

Bob, I saw pics of the build of the orange monster on corvetteforum.com, what engine sepcs and blower specs, etc are you at now?? What fuel was used and any meth? Th400 is kind of the way to go on F-bodys, or just a glide if you want a track car. 4L60E just too fragile and gear spacing not great, plus not much in terms of converter options. low to mid 9's at 145+ would be ****!

Thanks Darren. With a better converter and a good track we may drop another second out of it. I'd like to see 8's out of it, but it won't happen overnight. I'd say low 9's this year, high 8's next year. Bob

I was just going to call you and tell you if the converter is fixed and locing hard in 3rd, you will want a 3.73 gear with those tall *** tires (28+inch)...3.42 was good for the 26 in MT ET Streets. I think high 9's are a definite with the car, just that darn 10 bolt....its a crapshoot at this power level. If you have to, pill it up to 200 shot, sould be fine with the tune, just take 1 degree more out with the timing tuner and be sure to use 93-94 octane with some Torco or just 5 gallons of high octane 110+ race gas (no 02 sensors or cats, so leaded fuel is fine for racing).

If it goes, you'll be the second to know. 9 inch with 3.70s, aluminum center section, tru-track (probably), narrowed 2.5 per side. Then add some custom offset, 16 inch D10s (assuming they'll clear my C6 front brakes).

Cool, maybe you'll get lucky and you'll be able to finish out the season on the 10 bolt. Bob

Sorry to come late to the party, but is this an open track day?
Let me know, I was planning to go to Weds test and tune anyway, but during the day would be better.

What's up Ed?!?!
