Have you thought of trying 4.10's when your on the bottle?? Ive seen some cars drop from 4.10s to 3.73's on the spray in their 9inch @ the local 1320 and do alot better than 4.10's on the bottle. Just a thought tho, theres alot more factors coming into play to compare BBC stuff to LSx stuff anyways. Since your on a 9inch the gear swap should be pretty damn easy anyways.

Looked like you were getting impatient at the tree waiting to dump the clutch.

I am goin through around 6800-7000 I dont have a true reading yet as i was not logging those passes, and I am running 28x10.5's m/t I really dont think switching to a taller gear will help. clutch cars are kinda funky, If I go 4.10's or 3.90's I feel like it will either bog or spin way more... We will see I dont mind making small changes to my combo.

The shocks are afcos with stock springs in the rear and strange single coil overs up front with 275lb springs.

I would do a Vic jr and acufab TB on top And glass Hood like mine. I'm sure it would free up 20-30hp half price of a fast.

your spot on gear wise and tire wise if you ask me. Hows the ramp off the line for the kit. and i say max her out on the 150. see if you can lean her out some on fuel and pick up any. Lots of guys going stupid fast on small shots out there

thanks guys! I Don't have any type of progressive system on my car. It is just a solid 150 shot off the line(if thats what you were asking). Air fuel is around 12.2 now which I don't really want to push that much more. I have thought about doing a vic junior set up seems like it would pick up quite a bit...

Rob do you run subframe connectors?

I've been reading up on the trex cam lately and your video just made me a believer in it. I'm really considering putting one in when I rebuild my ls1 this winter. Sick car man.

I would say it is what you want out of your car. I think at this point there are some better cams out there. I have heard ALOT of good stuff about Geoffs cams at eps making great power with out sacrificing to much down low. However you can pick up a trex used for cheap and you WILL make power!

Nozzle or plate kit and what nitrous/fuel jets are in it? I realize you are saying a 150 but im curious on the sizes.

Great pass!
