Went to the track and ran my best times yet...
8.498 @ 81.88 with a 1.97 60'
I made 5 other passes but the track was junk that evening. A brand new Z06 was nearly totaled when a dumbass Lexus w/a turbo slammed on his brakes at the finish line and lost control. Then a guy in an S10-V8 lost traction and was all over the track in front of me. I wasted 4 out of 6 runs due to things out of my control. Hell, I took off at the light and spun so hard the speedometer showed over 80mph!! :eek: Humidity was our enemy. :thumbdown:
-
8.49...hell thats a good 1/8 run red...congrats...

nice #s red! Damn people need to learn car control!! :nono:
-
Cant wait to see it ! Me and the family are going to try to come up next friday

Humidity, you ought to try living down here by the coast! Somertime sucks! Unless your at the beach checking out the butt floss.
Hey Greg, I have a friend that said he was gonna take his truck out there sometime. His name is Nick and he's the shop supervisor at one of the Chevy Dealerships by you. He put an LS1 in his 97 Chevy and he said he's got an LS2 in the garage. Damn the benefits you get working at a dealership. I'll try to put him in contact with you.
-
Awesome. Now I just need to figure out how to get that LS2 out of his garage into mine. :smile:
-
Sweet times Red! :thumb: I guess you got your problem fixed. What was it?
-
Not enough engine. Needed some help to get the times down. I hear that the 98 LS1 was only supposed to have about 310HP. Maybe I need some better heads and exhaust.
-
:nx: Is that what your sayin?
-
Yep, 150 shot. I still have 150 in reserve. Can I get into the 7's? LOL
I guess if I blow it I can get the engine I really want, ERL Performance's aluminum blocked 454ci LS1. :laugh: I'd probably only have enough money to buy a 200k 4.8L though. :thumbdown:
-
I thought you were having some problems with the timing spiking and stuff. Did you get that straightened out?
-
If you don't hurry up and put the juice on it I'm gonna beat you. I put an Optima battery in and put some juice on it to make sure the gauges powered up. I just need to install my header when I receive it on Wednesday and make the O2's a little longer and it's over. Oh, and I have to shim the pinion 6 degrees since it's lowered more. Can't wait to make my first vid of it! I've already got the NOS hose ran and need to install the solenoids somewhere, I'd like to hide them again. I've got a plug and play hand held button so there's no microswitch at the throttle body. I'll keep you posted, I got to get er cranked up first.
-
Yeah, no switch on the TB for me either. My cheater system can't be seen except the bottle. It's all hidden nicely.
Allen fixed my timing issue with a new tune. I don't think it was really an issue. I think my AutoTap isn't reading correctly with my old laptop.
