why BS? if it was a LS3 then maybe but a LS2 it sounds just about right. My old Full bolt on, Tuned WS6 ran dead even with many stock LS2 vettes up until about 120+ and then they would start a slight pull but noting to serious.

Yep no doubt its better not only from a dig but highway speeds to. Very happy with the ss3600.

Yea I wasnt going to respond to that comment. I dont bash manuals. Theres times I wish I had one...highway rolls and mpg but im happy with my auto most of the time. I beat up on cars with alot more power at stoplights its great. Dont have to worry about shifting when im with the lady getting a nice hummer its all good
Hell yea I want a cam. A good set of heads also

Oh yea dont get me wrong I understand that. Im not claiming my car is super freak or anything. It ran what it ran in the da it ran whatever lol.

This was my first stalled auto. I was going to go with a pt4000 for these type of situations on the highway but was worried about going to big. So I went with ss3600. I love it but I wonder what the pt4000 would have been like.

He must have ran in some good da huh? My car before the stall full weight did 12.6 in -1000 da.
People usually assume I have a ss4000 stall when they see 11s. The car probably would of had 11s no problem with a 4k stall.
Yes I think I would of had to do a 11.7-11.6 to get on the top 50 stock internal. So still far from any record lol

Yea see thats the thing. After we were door to door once he started to pull it was no contest. The top end of that vette was strong. It wasnt a weak walk away more like a runaway lol

I was at work with a headcold (still have it), I honestly forgot about LS2 C6's. I wasn't trying to be a dick or anything like that lol.

OP, where in CT are you from? I am in Glastonbury a stones throw from the pike. We should meet up this spring if you're down.

there is a lot of trut h the the da statement. my old a4 car went 12.0s @ 111 @ 2250' here in good old indiana. i never cared enough to get it out in the cold months. correcting to sea level is good for an idea, but i don't think it was that fast. the calculator i used said the car would've gone 11.7s @ 113. it still had a raceweight of over 3500lbs. da makes a difference in the outcome for sure, but trying to correct a time seems like something that is very hard to do. there are a lot of factors to consider. i think they correct too much.

i love stalled autos. m6s are great until you want a 1.5x 60', then you're looking at spending half the value of the car on parts just to withstand such a launch.

I had my passenger window down on the 2nd run and all I could hear was my ory and borla sound bouncing off the side of his car lol. No, it didnt sound modded at all.

Also FWIW my car is 3200lbs and he did have a passenger in the car.




Yes once we were more up top he started pulling and then freakin gone. My car was doing 12.0s in 60f weather. Da was +500 during that time.




Oh man like I said in original post I wasnt paying attention to the speeds but I can tell you once he started to pull he was freaking gone. On the first race I jumped out on him and the saw him pulling from behind. Once he started to pull I saw how fast it was gonna be over. So once he pased me I let out.




Yea thats what I was thinking unless he was a super driver? See this is the times I wish I had a manual. Highway rolls and mpg.




Its far from a record dude. I dont even make the top 50 list. My car is 3200lbs without me. Im 210.
The same car did 12.0 in -1200 da full weight.
Heres the 2nd best 11.9 that same night.

Well slowhawks mustang dyno reads low so they say. My car dynoed 337rwh and 343rwt on another dyno before the stall.




Its really not that hard.
Thats pretty damn fast for a minor bolt on fbod...I was under the impression those were H/C/I type numbers. Wheres the nos?? I see your cutting a pretty good 60' so that prob helps a lot. Congrats!

Thanks. Nahhh man theres tons of f bodies doing these times and better but like what has already been said the da has alot to do with it. If I ran in -1000 da like alot of the top 50 stock internal guys I bet I would of at least bumped #50 off the list. My car responds better to a drop in the da better than what the calculators say. Im guessing the cai ssra has alot to do with that.
