H/C/I/bolt on/level2 60e/Stall VS LOTB **Video**
Dyno sheet in the morning, lol... (juice)
I had a good time cruising with "modern muscle" guys out of San Antonio. Did a small hill country run, and then some baller BBQ. Once we got done eating, we where checking out each rides. One TA had a pretty good set up, which was as follows: 150 shot (not used) Ls1, 243 ported heads, Fast 102 intake and TB, long tube headers, dumps, Performabuilt stage 2 4l60e, yank 3600 stall, nittos, don't recall what gears, and a monster 246 248 custom grind cam, with Tune. I asked him if he would give me a run to compare my ride pre and post tune with his and re run soon again. As some of you know I'm waiting for an opening to go see Pat G and have this base tune finalized.
So we went off, once and proceeded with the 30 roll. At the third honk, we both hit it, and my ride loses traction, slightly let off and back in it. By that time his momentum was slightly better than mine, but continued gunning it. I was by his side then started separating once in good rpm, and by 130, I had at least 2 1/2 to 3 cars on him.
He definitely had a strong 160k + mile LS1 and give him props on his set up.
I am trying to upload the phone clip, but having trouble since I'm out of wifi range. Yes i did it from my phone, while racing... not the best quality but at least i have proof,
Also, can someone guesstimate an ls1 rwhp with his set up? Forgot to ask.
Thanks for reading, I'll have a video up soon...
Here is a side by side pic... My TA on left.

Just got a phone call... The TA I raced kept on running with other rides on the way home, more than likely spraying that 150 and his engine gave up.
Spun a bearing and all sorts of crazy sounds and knocks from its engine.
RIP LS1, the curse of Fenix is back.

Nice job! I'm surprised how quickly you starting pulling...especially with a little wheel spin
Sorry to hear that he spun a bearing. That happened to me last summer, and 5 grand + later I have a nice new forged motor lol

Forged motors get expensive quick, regardless of what you go with.
Tires may need to be next...

If you're smart about it you won't have a problem. That guy obviously lacked some common sense. There are guy I know who have been spraying 150 for years and have had no problem. Doing back to back to back runs, especially spraying etc on a stock shortblock isn't exactly the best idea...especially with 160k on the clock.

I bought tr6's and have a nitrous kit, but going to get tr7's just in case and a new fuel pump lol.
I was thinking 100 shot because i have 3.73s and 3rd only goes to 120-125 since i have stock cam.

Nitrous is what you make of it... with 328 whp, you can spray 150 shot and not worry about it. You'll definitely need a new transmission sooner than later. Get a racetronix Fuel pump, br7ef plugs, timing puller, and a good wet kit.
