It will be nice to see an LSX in that class! Good luck to you guys! You should think about coming down to Houston to run some of the Ultimate Street stuff as well!

From what I've heard there are supposed to be 2 other 4th gens that are going to be running extreme this year besides mine.

Why would you say that? I don't think there are going to many 4th gens around here that will be much faster than mine.

You are shooting for 5.20s, right? What prompted you to go with the F1R vs. F2? Or turbo? Thats alot of powa for an F1 it seems like. But I am of course no guru in any forced application.

5.20's is realistic for an F1 Blower. The guys in NMCA Extreme Street are doing it with Small Blocks and the rules are almost identical.

An A2W F1R is the class limit for extreme street.

[QUOTE=Elite_Hot_Rod;11357431]No Super Victor intake. Here's a shot with the hood up and one of what can be seen thru the nostrils.

Question.... Is that a OEM WS6 hood and does it close with the Super Victor Jr? Looks like you cut on the inner shell to get the hood down? What elbow is in the photo? Looks like the elbow has cleared the cowl?

I have the Super Victor Jr as well and the Edelbrock low profile elbow and wondering how it is all going to fit.

Thanks

It would be awesome to see an LSX win some of those events this year.

It's an old Sun Coast Creations WS6 hood not OEM. The elbow is a Wilson Manifolds elbow and we had to clearance the hood to get it to close.

I hope we can give them a run for their money and at least be competitive.

We are going to come down when we can and race. We are going to to try and make NMCA memphis this year with it. Run in the extreme there as well. We can't compete in the all out ls1 radial class.
