Well I went to the track tonite to get a baseline of where the SS is at. It ran 14.20 @96.11 mph. Its ok, I quess. Next week I will put on the new WCCH stage 2 heads and then go back to see if there is a improvement. I think it really needs a stall.

I think that is a very respectable time for an ex-cab with 20's, unless you have smaller rims, put on some 16's wth some d/r and you'll be lovin the mid 13's.

I agree with s10 smaller tires will help. The stall will help also.

Thanks guys, I just I want to be alittle faster, I know the heads will help. I think I see either a TB converter comig or a PI.
I was on the stock rims, I took the Boyds off for the winter.

I only got to run once and it was 2.23, it really needs a stall. It was really cool here like 48*. I quess I am ok with it now, I will get the heads on next week. I have a few weeks left to get back to the track before it closes. I quess the stall will wait until next year. A few other people said to me today that it was pretty good time also, I just want more.

Nice time for only being the baseline. I'm very anxious to see what impovement you gain from the heads. Shoot, if you were closer I'd even help with the swap.
I wonder how deep into the 13's you'll dive? Hurry up, man, the suspense is killing me!

Thanks, The new tune will be here next week, I plan on starting the head swap either Fri. or Sat. nite. I don't think that just the heads will get me into the 13s, I am in the process of deciding on a stall rite now. With the stall and heads, I don't know where I will end up? Maybe mid 13s with the rite stall.
I 've only got 3 weeks left till the track closes so I will be all over the head swap next week , hoping to get to the track the following Wed. So you have about a 10 day wait, It should show some good results.

A set of 16's with d/r will def get you in the 13's :drive:

I can't use the 16s with my brake rotors, I am going to try to go 13s on the stock 20s.

well the heads should be good for another 50-70 hp right? that should put you in the 13's easy unless the weather sux that day for some reason lol.

I don't know about all that power, maybe 30- 40. Blownchevy saw a 46hp difference with a set of heads from WCCH, I quess we will see.
