Pewter look at it from the outside looking in. say you have 3 cars one is turboed one is nitrous and one is weight reducted and faceplated. Dont all 3 seem like a purpose built track car to achieve an e.t? With the edge going to the power adders really trying to get the e.t.?

I have no times, the track he ran at is two hours away. I'll have 1/8th mile times this weekend. I can run him from a dig but it would be bad. You can go back to my other thread with videos and see how bad I jump him from 20 vs 40.

I feel more like a Troll with the Camero as my avatar; but if it puts everybody at ease I guess I'll keep it.

You see this is what I'm talking about alot of guys do. Make changes with out running the car. You end up not knowing what did what sometimes.

No i was making a point. I didnt miss the one were they think hes a dick lol. I just had no comment on that part. It would be hard to defend him on that part but who ownes a car that has one mod that isn't trying to get an et? If they weren't they wouldnt have power adders like mine

You seem hung up on terms. It doesn't matter what it's called, just that it has a setup with supporting mods that most cars do not have, and therefore runs better than most cars at that power level.

not trying to be a dick but you just prooved my point yourself! Do most cars have a turbo or nitrous? NO! he just did it a different way and had excellent results. But all three cars described have same purpose with different ways to get there and results. Its just a trade off of which way they wanna chose to make it go faster

It's harder still to actually argue your engine being stock... Haven't seen many stock DD 4th gens with electric water pumps. Plus, all those bolt on parts apparently just happened to be a part of your "stock" engine when you swapped it from the original... That's beating a dead horse, of course... Everyone who's taken any time to look at your sig knows your engine is far from anything stock. It may have the stock(for that engine) cam and rotating assembly, but there are plenty of non-stock parts on it.

EWP has been on it for years now and has been to Atlanta and back also with the ac on and the cruise set. I never said the car was stock. the car may get less stock here soon......but the engine will stay stock longblock.
