Is your speedo off? Seems to pull way too hard from 100+ for a bolt on LT1. Either way nice ride.

whats wrong with your oil pressure? It looked like on idle before you started driving it was almost at 0...you might want to check that out its supposed to be around 40psi at idle.

So you ran a 12.9 @ 116/117mph? Nice try. Get your oil pressure looked at.

Here's a C6Z06. Check out the 100-150. You're telling me that your p.o.s Camaro will run with a Z06?

Get your ol' Hand held out and fix your speedometer.
