Default Another 8sec nitrous LS1 in Texas?? Track Vids Inside!!
Well we just finished another customers car last night. Here is a picture of the dyno graph. It made this through a Powerglide, 9in and 28X10.5 slicks. We will be taking this car out wed night to HMP if anyone wants to join us. After we get some good 1/8 mile hits in, then we will head to baytown to see what she does in the 1/4.

I ran my 8.9 with only ~800rwhp SAE, with a progressive (which between that and my Window Switch boned me for a good 60ft). You all def. have this one in the bag.

Yup, The blue goose only made around 750 rwhp. We will see how she does on Wed. We will hit her with everthing out the gate.

It made 514rwhp on motor and the fogger is jetted at a 350. How much did the car weigh when you went your 8.57?

Nice power cant wait to see what that car runs!! I just purchased Mr. Powells old Z-28. The car is currently going through some changes and we should be out in a month or so looking for a good pass. The car is up at MTI getting some things ironed out before we go ***** out!!! Zach , Chris, and myself will be driving this car and I cant wait.

Good #'s Steven. Is this a low pressure or high pressure system. I assume it has a stand-alone fuel system.
