yeah, I'd say you're a good match for a stock LS2 GTO

Woow woow woow!!!..OK First off by "stock" you mean completely gutted with D/R's! And by "get around" you mean one race at Qualcomm's 1/8 mile. Oh and BTW...once i got traction, i was pulling on you, you just got to the end of the line first...and i still have the time slip to prove it! So BAM!

a gutted GT with DRs is still slower than an LS1 with light to medium boltons.

you need the driver mod

Right, that was then. I actually think we would dyno the exact same numbers now. But you'd get of the line faster cuz you have lcas and a torque arm. Did you get a tune yet?

1. you need to lower your rear tires to 30-34psi for digs.

2. you need the driver mod.

3. keep missing 3rd like that and that shifter will pop out at you pretty soon from the shift fork being bent. also bent pushrods.

4. nice inserts
