Finally got everything together today and was able to get to the track. This is just you basic cam only car, stock heads, stock bottom end with a plate. Nothing too fancy just hard work. We were able to make a pretty decent pass today.....
1.39 sixty foot
6.24@ 110 1/8 mile
9.86 @ 139
This was a 150 shot ( 62N, 33F) HSW plate on real low bottle pressure due to a bad nitrous solenoid or something like that. Went 11.04 125 on motor the pass before with the nitrous converter in it.
There is more to come as we ran out of bottle to make any more changes and go quicker, next time out we will up the jets and shoot for that 5.9x 1/8 miles pass.
Anyways want to say thanks to HSW, Greg@FTI Converters, Mark Romans Designs Tuning, Theo@ Wizard Racing and all the many more who have helped us out.
Oh yea, garage built car that weighs 3380 pounds with me in it. Heavy son of a gun.
will have video later.

Wow, that's pretty impressive for a true street/strip car. Your hard work has paid off. How low was the bottle pressure? We're sure it would be quicker with the proper PSI cause as you know, low bottle pressure is just like putting smaller n2o jets in. Maybe NANO is in your future? heavy car, LOL, hell my Vette weighs more than that...

Maybe light to some, but heavy in the true lsx racecar stuff.

Oh little off topic btw.
How did you times change from the 4l60e to the t400?
Also you said you put it down on the street aswell. How does the car feel from a roll with that trans.

I used to run it on the street with the 4l60, I havent really played with it with the 400 yet.

impressive build, does your car have full suspension? i've got BMR subframe conectors, rear LCA's and an adjustable panhard bar, what would you recomend me buying next to add to my suspension? i want this thing to hook.
just curious, what are some easy-to-do weight reductions? because my 2000 camaro ss weighed 3780 with me in it and i'd like to knock off a couple hundred pounds without doing anything drastic...i just noticed your car weighs about 400 lbs less than mine, and im shootin for the 9's as well.
