    Thanks but this god has a lot of issues getting where I want to be. I wish I could have kept the 4L60 E and the ten bolt rearend in it but 9.2 at 157 MPH was all I could get. If I ramped up the power at all it would do was cut the teeth off the ring gear so just no way to get to the 8's with that setup unless you stripped the car and that was not an option.

    Last year was just a big test and tune. Even the LTX shootout was that but learned even then. That was the first time the tune was close enough to pull the wheels off the ground and because it did it at a 30 MPH rolling start I knew I was at a different level than the past. It now won't leave without the wheels in the air even with a lot still wrong. The blow off valve was left loose, by a 1/4", at Atlanta and it still pulled the wheels and even almost went a 5 in the 1/8 at only 90 MPH because I quit at the 330 mark. When you have a 2.10 first gear with a 3.50 rear gear and 31.5 tall tires you would think launching at only 3000 stall and only 60% power wouldn't even pull the tires in a car this heavy at almost 4600 pounds and most of that on the nose. That also tells you a lot about how much torque your engine is making. Bad passes can still make you smile when you see numbers that should have been on good passes. It even shook the tires on one test pass and still almost was in the 1.2's at the 60 foot. Big different between wheel hop and tire shake!!

    It's getting closer!! Just don't forget how heavy this car is because it still has everything in it that came from the factory, even the ABS and air bags are there and everything works. I give most of the other cars I race a second and 1/2 head start because of my car weighing 1500 to 2000 pounds more than theirs. So a low 8 or a high 7 in my car and it would be a high 6 in the stuff I'm racing against. So think about that, an LT you could put in a 2800 pound car and run 6's yet drive it around like it was just a car. If my Impala were only a Camero

    No more posts as not trying to high jack some ones thread.

    Larry, Jeff's car was the one with the billet block at the shootout last year. I believe on one pass it threw the blower belt off on the big end and gave us all a scare if I recall correctly
