DA was above sea level most of the day when I was bracketing As high as (300+) I was told. I just swapped out the 28's (275/60/15 pro's) for 27's(255/60/15 radials) to take advantage of the engines love of rpm's. It is 3200 lb race weight. It is all steel, has factory dash and full interior (Production type front bucket seats, not aftermarket, factory rear seat, all factory glass, roll bar,frame connectors and such).

I have a couple of scuba tanks and a plate laying around so it may be time to do some experimenting. I wonder what a 100-150 shot would do?

Wow, that's impressive. You still have a good amount of weight that can be pulled out if you choose.

Mid-low 9's for sure. Throw the kit on, pull some weight, and let her rip

Thanks guys.

LS1rob00. Sounds like a plan. Hopefully weekend weather cooperates.

Its a stock LY6 from a 2009 3500 van. The heads are the LY6's stock 823 castings that are milled and the stock pistons were fly cut for the BRE camshaft. I did mild porting on the exhaust side and the intake ports were only relieved of casting flash.

Thanks Speedtigger. Yours is moving out as well. I'm sure you will be requesting a title change soon.

Its amazing that such a simple combo can go so fast. It goes to show that testing and tuning and spending the time to make what you have work does pay off. With your MPH I think there might be a couple of tenths in it.
Congrats!
