Nitrous issues are no fun... About lost me $100 a couple weeks ago. Check for leaks. Mine was cutting out real bad and wouldn't run like it should and it turned out my line going from my fuel solenoid to the intake got loose and I was spraying alot of the fuel on the ground. Meaning I was spraying alot more n20 than fuel. Lucky I didn't f**** something up.

Well I think it had more to do with low bottle pressure and the window switch.. I had it setup to kickoff at 6600rpm so I moved it up to 6800rpm..

Hopefully I'm gonna take my Fox Body to the track Friday. Our local track requires you to have a DOT street tire to run the 1/4 and I have slicks on my car, so I'm gonna have to haul my car to a track that's 2 hours away from my house. My local track is about 45 minutes from my house(gotta love NC). I was wanting to go before it got too hot, but **** just didn't work out.
Oh well, I think that it can still hit my goal even if it's a little warm; just hope the track has enough bite to hold my car.

Hey douchers.

How much does it cost for an auto LS1 build with a cam and 150 shot supporting mods reliably...?


I just found an abandoned 4th gen LS1 going for $4,500. It's completely stock. 93k miles on it. I think I can get it for about $2,500.

Well what condition is the vehicle in? Any mods?

The first thing I'd do personally is have the auto built as my 4l60e on my old WS6 went out with just shorty headers (previous owner), a catback, and gears at 102k miles.

Wonder how much shipping would cost for a built tranny to go out there

I want to know how much it'll cost to build up.

I have 3 cars, don't need a 4th if it's going to cost me another 20k to get to trap 130+.

I'm debating selling the srt10 but I love the damn thing. I can get about $37,000 for it.

It won't cost that much to trap 130, especially if you cut some fat. How much you say? Depends on where you go to spend your almighty U.S dollar . Call around...By the way, yes...get rid of the SRT 10 either way

edit: your car aint no Zl1 killer until it does it, but it can't...cuz it's a mother f...'ing Zl1~!! Not as fast as a new GT500? Maybe not...not as fast as a Mach? Driver's race...

What the hell you care about cost? You dropped 6 grand on your suspension! I could get that 4500 dollar pos into the 10s for less . And if you get it for 2500, it is indeed a pos! I call bs
