LS1 V8 to be exact....

What I dont get is how can you run 7.7's on only 4 cylinders on a stock motor, and now that you have all 8 on your built beast you get the same time? I though you said it will run low 7's before you went?

With a decent 60' it has 7.10-.20 without a problem. I seriously don't get what your trying to say, now you just look like a complete idiot that your doubting it has those times in it even though it obviously MPH'd for those times...

Ryan What conveter is in the car now?

Look at the TSP stock bottom end H/C car They run a Cheap *** 8" Turbo Action converter you can get from any mail order catalog and 60" in the 1.2X range.

Get a nice converter in that sucker ASAP and shoot for some bottom seven passes

Not sure though. I'll see after its tuned what it does out of the hole. If its still a dog off the line I'll see about getting a bigger converter for motor.

Yeah but then I have to swap back and forth. So I don't know... I'll figure it out after it gets tuned.

If it had a better motor converter in it I don't see why it couldn't... it weighs around under 3200 without me in it, I only weigh 160... it has the mph right now for a low low 7. Why wouldn't a 4400+ so that I can leave a hell of a lot harder not net me .1-.2?

What XpEdItIoUs fails to remember is Ryan was running "shitty Kumhos", which enabled him to run better times.

Ryan, you ever think of getting rid of those ET Streets?
