but i mean if it gets traction then awesome.

and i don't really see what's so bad about questioning traction in a 1200 hp car

i guess i just can't think on the same level as all you vette owners. oh well.

 

its ok, we dont expect you too

 

The vette in question is still an irs car. As Tiago said 18" DR can be made to work and work very well. An 18" drag radial is what my car used at the track and for the street runs. My car actually made more power than this because I had the spray on it.

 

jw how bad were you fighting traction?


because ive seen cars with 700-800 hp on a better tire fight for traction.

 

Im moving.Houston is just to dam FAST these days.If you dont make 1000rwhp just stay home

LMR does it again

 

Or you can just buy my mustang and hang with them...

 

Who needs traction from an 80 roll

 

What heads are on this?

 

I belive some out of the box trick flows.


Keep dreaming Chad lol

 

damn you Josh, Just when I think I have a fast car you make me feel like **** again..

 

lol you have some fast cars bro. Hell you never keep them long enough to come out and play.

 

What block are yall using? Havn't seen a 383 build in a while, sounds interesting.

 

Hang it off the motor. Or run alcohol. Ha ha

 

LOL, Thats why I told him I have one I will sell him... LOL

I'm going to try to get my "Current" you guys here in the next few weeks. I want to throw up a big number on Race fuel then switch to pump gas.

Keep up the good work!!!

 

Dyno queen...

 

JK...good numbers Mike. Shawns motor is in his car. Should be able to run the same times or better than you with 400whp less.
BBR Performance
1994 Camaro Z28 Convertible
396 All Forged LT1
AFR Ported 227 23 degree
LE Stage 3 Ported intake
Strange 12bolt 4:11 gears
Built 4l80E
3800 Precision Stall
2 Stage BBR Nitrous System Progressively Controlled 250 each stage.
And a few other goodies....should be good for 8's and should be interesting. All done for a little under $20k.
What did they charge you for all the work? I might be interested in letting them do mine. I dont have the time to work on my Vette with all the customers. Got all the parts....just no time to do it.

 

400 whp less than 1200=800whp
nitrous accounting for 500whp means that a forged 396 stroker only makes 300?

also thats a lot of nitrous for an lt1, amirite?

Im sure we will see 8's on a really good day and just the first stage of nitrous. The block has recently concreted and girdled and is a 4 bolt splayed main caps so a 250 shot should get the job done. We are just adding the additional 250 shot for Dyno queen purposes. It'll handle it.

Mike congrats on the numbers. The guys and I at BBR are just eager to see that monster hit the track. Maybe even get a friendly run in.
