Default OBS Supercharged Tahoe doing Burnout

I was out in Moreno Valley today helping Ken build a 383 for his '96 K1500 ECSB and decided to take a break...

It turns out certain Tahoes make great leaf blowers!

I keep it stock and simple looking on purpose, the element of surprise works in my favor.

What kind of times does that beast run. My cousin wants me to build him a 383 for his 98 Z71 and your set up is almost the same as I was planing for him.

Last time I was to the track with it was before the trans swap and resulting torque management removal, before the heads, the rockers, and the 3" duwl exhaust. Back then it ran 14.2 at some 95ish. It should do much better now - even with a stock torque converter compared to the 10.5" one on the 4L60-E back then.

I need slicks
