Post 'em up guys..
LT1 with LT4 Hotcam Kit
2000 RPM Corvette Stall
Built Trans with Transgo HD2 Shift Kit

Dyno Numbers and Weight in sig
The track was cold also, and I had a shifting problem with the 2-3, kept bouncing off of the rev limiter. We got to get that video on here Chris, that **** was funny..

Honestly, I thought you'd run faster than my Z w/ your cammed LT1/sticky tires/3.73/stalled/lightweight car. Very nice ET/MPH though, congrats. LS motor mod will definitely knock off couple seconds.

Got to dip into the 10's!!!! First run was 10.971 and second was 10.987. After Merv's car blew that "flame ball" out the back of his car I decided to put it on the trailer...lol. Here's a pic of the timeslip. I'm also car number 69...



I think I can get it to 60' better, but very happy with it. Car pulled like crazy, thanks to Ryan (Rhino79), it's never pulled that hard through the finish line. Pure fun!!

Chris
