Default Bolt on SS a8 vs bolt on ss m6

Guy I met at the strip sent me this vid. He ran 12.2@118 on this pass. 2.0 60 ft. Think I ran 10.96 or 10.99. I red lit on this run so looks a little worse. That and the lens focus makes things look further too.

My mods in sig. His mods are headers, e85, ported stock intake and TB. Rear dr and stock fronts. Bunch of crap in his car. loaded 2ss with bigger front brake option. He went across the scales at 3860 and he looks like maybe a 180 guy.

What was the 60 ft for the m6 SS?

I really wish a8 swaps were feasible.

2.0 to my 1.6

He did manage a 1.8 that night but missed third. He was pissed. Would have been solidly in the 11s.

Hard launches have still not been figured out with the m6. They pull power and bog with a hard launch. Hopefully they get it figured out. Best one can do for now is a hard slip.

Sorry glanced right over that.

Wonder if a m6 with a stick could match your times. I know a couple of the c7 m7 guys ran close to a8 times.

If they could get the launch problem cured would be a lot closer. They also need a gear. When stock 4th gear revs out to over 140 mph

Someone has went 11.4@120-121 so far with same mods as me minus headers but cat deletes using the stock tri y. That only leaves about 10 hp on the table. 1.77 60.

I dont see why not... especially with some gears.

GM is the only toon with TM and intrusive stuff. Takes 4+ years to find it all.

My last two were actually m6.

Looks like you need a bit of practice. Trapping 143 with two power adders but running tens?

Cobro does much better hmm...is that an auto? or did the other owner drive it? or both?
