Are you running a forged block for future FI or lots of spray? Lower compression? Im asking cause my uncle has a low comp forged 383 LTI that was built for nos. It runs low 12's on motor with front street tires and a slammed suspension. Not too shabby for a 97 Firebird Formula heavy vert.

yup, your bros car is fast,but that day my bbk tb was at 75% throttle and needed to be adjusted like i had said that same night.I lost no doubt. he pulled about a car on me. I would like a rematch,but with you in the eclipse. friendly race that is. anyways what up man? how have you been? glad to see you got the car running.I've been at the in and out for the last 4 weeks,but cops are getting to crazy there. so I have to lay low...
Oh, are we talking roll or digg??

Yeah, I think so. Don't you have some slicks and a 12 bolt rear end??? JK roll is good. Hopefully we can do that early next year. My car should be ready by january. I could cut some short cuts and have it ready earlier but then I'll end up blowing the tranny on the first launch.

the eclipse's make power until a certain limit. awd system is basically a fwd set up. wasent there a weakness in the bottom end on the motor? You mean like 7's and 195mph in the 1/4? Not sure why people believe that an AWD car is slower on a roll than a 2WD car. An AWD car making decent power will spin all 4 street tires in 2nd and 3rd gear quite easily. I guarantee you that it is an advantage by providing traction.

its not about the awd car. A Fbody M6 is faster from a roll than a dig. unless you have a great launch.
