Guys, Please keep in mind just because Andys fuel system has suprisingly being able to keep up it does not mean the next car system will. He is with with out a doubt pushing its limits. So if you push it like andy has I suggest watching the tune up and fuel pressure carefully as you move up in the power level. Dont try to set the world on fire with out checking things.

I am on my way with the stock bottom end. I have everything working but I am now finding all my weak points as of this last weekend. Soon Soon. So far 6.5's with a 150 shot and the night below I upped it to a 175 shot. First run had the wheels very high in the air caught me off guard and my foot came off the gas so I aborted the run, made some changes to keep the front down a little and then this! I have learned a lot from reading and following Carters posts. Thanks.

2camaros6702, hate to see you broke the car but as you know it's all part of it! I have broke my fair share of rearends and trannies along the way Keep up the good work on tuning your car. Once you get past the 6.50 mark things get tricky and even that much harder to go faster.

LOL. How many plugs you think you went thru/money spent? I am actually adding the cost of plugs to see how much I will actually spend if I go spray.

We don't want to discuss this on the internet. NGK might feel bad for not sponsoring me!!!!!

I've bought probably 100- 150 plugs this past year. Not too bad really....

Truth, I'm sure you'll be happy to know we finally found our limit with our fuel system. I know we had this convo awhile ago. haha

HAHA, They need to sponsor you. I wouldnt be going for all the marbles just want to get it tuned right on a 150 or so and just keep the tune and hopefully last along time.

I did have it on a progressive setup but I pulled it all out because I was having problems with it so now it is on a WOT switch.

Congrats Andy. know it's late. SGMP really needs to fix their scale because that's the first thing I hit up after I pay at the shack. So are you the record holder for a nitroused and camed LS1 with a stock bottom? I know Camcam runs around those times or faster..just curious ..GJ!!

Thanks Charles.

Well right now as far as tech goes in a F-body with cam only plus nitrous with stock bottom end I am the fastest (i have an ls6 intake which didn't come on my car but is a stock piece had my car been an 01-02). Cam is the fastest cam only, plus intake, plus nitrous stock bottom end f-body. I really don't think i will be able to pass Cam without an intake and less weight. I am also blowing through my converter a bit so that's not helping either. Cam has been a big help in my learning curve so if he's the one keeping me from taking the spot then that's ok with me
