Default New pics of my SS!! (Drag Setup)

Had the SS down for about a month doing some upgrades.

Just finishes installing the following..

TSP Tsunami Cam
Edelbrock 1 3/4 stepped 1 7/8's Long Tube Race Headers
Hutto 3" Stainless X-pipe with 3" Bullet dumps
Lowered 2.5" all around
Holeshot Holestar 15x3.5 Front
Holeshot Holestar 15x10 Rear
28x13.5x15 Hoosier QTP's (yes, took a LONG time to fit without running)
Removed all AIR and EGR crap
Removed front bumper support

Already had..
AFR 205's with Gold Dual's
BBK80mm TB
TR MAF ends
Hardened 7.4 PR's
LS6 Intake (stock)
4.10 Gears
LID & K&N
Tuned by RPM


I will be getting it tuned next weekend, I am going to switch to the Edelbrock Victor series Intake with Elbow for a comparision in power.

I would have to say it sounds incredible now, runs like a BEAST and looks fabulous in my opinion! LOVE IT!!

maybe get your suspension dialed in and it wont do that. if it is adjustable. your car looks awesome by the way.

I'm starting to get that vibe. I think I will go ahead with the Fast 92/92 in a few weeks.

yup yup it's in the suspension. i have my car blowing off the tires at 100 mph when the turbo spools up but i'm on the stock suspension so that's why it gets sideways on the freeway like that

When I had my 99 T/A, I can't remember how many 1.5x 60' I got on the stock 10 bolt with 4.10's. I am hoping it will last a few runs. I did a decent launch after roasting the hides, and it hooked pretty good, sat down strait and did not rub.

I guess only time will tell

Oh its nothing against you. The car looks good.

IMO theirs just no reason at all to put 28s on a 10blt, cept for looks.

Appropriately geared with 26's would make much more sense as far as longevity goes..and still looks killer IMO.

FWIW, I used to cut 1.6's all day long on a DD 10blt...but with 3.73s an 26's...and a TH350. At stock heigth they didn't rub & I never had a prob w/ the 10blt...but again I was running a TH350 with a soft conv.

But with the TA in sig had Sportlines and 26's and rubbed just driving it. By the looks of yours I dont see how it wouldnt rub under normal driving...much less a hard leave.


With 4.10s, an M6, and a 10blt its like a timebomb...


Good luck...
