Congrats for sure!!! Especially being that heavy, damn. Willing to share anymore on the squared LS1? Keep it up, litterally. Love to see the wheels off the ground. I hope to be able to do that 1 day.

No, it's got a decent bit of weight reduction, but it's also got a lot of weight in it and i'm 265, without me and without a bottle the car is 3085 with a 10 pt chromemoly cage and still has all stock k member and a arms and stuff. Stock brakes out back, aerospace up front.

Everyone says the car will go faster with a glide, so I'm going to give it a try, right now I can't leave on more than 40% without standing her up and I've still got more jet to throw at it. They also said I'm just running through didst gear and it's wasting power and that with the glide it'll keep it in the peak power band longer and motor through. Like I said, figure I'll give it a try.

Well, I guess the whole point is to get as much power in as soon as possible. Hell, get an air shifter and all you'll have to do is release the trans brake and keep her straight.
I've thought of sticking a glide in mine with a ton of gear when I get back to 1/8th mile racing

Definately let me know how the glide works out, and what gearset are in it. I'm seriously considering one myself for mucht eh same reason. I'm not standing my junk up (at least until the lw front end **** goes on after that who knows) but keeping the motor in right spot is what I'm more intrested.
If possible, weigh the 2 tranny's too... I'm also intrested to see what they weigh (crossmember and driveshaft too if possible for best possible accuracy)

Driveshafts won't be a fair comparison, I'm going from steel to chromemoly, I got a friend that can get me a chromemoly one made for half what I paid for my steel and the chromemoly is lighter and stronger, so I'm gonna jump on it.
