Hell yeah! The last time I had her out, I realized how bad she needs a clutch though.

Finally got to see what the car looks like with the new Raptor Hood and CLEAN!!

Gave the car a little rip to test out the new LS6 Intake and then took it to the carwash.

Sucks that Saturday's forecast is calling for the **** it is (I hope the weatherman is wrong), but either way I got to take advantage of what mother nature offered us today. And I liked it.

Default New but not..

snowing now what a drag, shouldn't last very long. We need heavy rain to get rid of the sand and salt.Just some things that I'm doing so far this year, Chicago to tune the new 383 4-2-10, Heading to KC on the 24th of April for the annual Hooters cruise. Then the big car show May 2 at the ISLE CASINO HOTEL in Waterloo.8:00-4:00.

Hopefully its true, but the weatherman is calling for around 80 degrees Thursday. What's going to happen to spring are we going straight from winter to summer?

As long as it is warming up I don't care. This will be a great week to go cruising. If anyone plans on doing anything let me know.

No plans.
I doubt it is going anywhere...I only listed it here, so just feeling it out. I want to mod it, but I need to finish the black hole & the old convertible needs some stuff, so I can't dump $ on mods for the GTO.

What kind of car do you have? What is done to it? You would need a dyno to get hp/tq numbers. Let us know what is done to the car and we can guess as to what kind of power it is making.

Where are you located anyway?

Sorry, can't help ya with that. I would have no clue what that motor is making as I am more familiar with LS1 cars. Maybe someone will chime in here.

So...is anyone doing anything tonight? Meeting up anywhere?

Just a wild guesstimate would put a stock headed 350 with that compression and stock heads at about 250-275hp.
