I was surprised that my 60 foot was so slow at 1.9. It's not spinning the tires at all. I have tried flooring it off idle and brake stalling to 2500 and then put it to the carpet... It's the same each time. My rear end gear is a 3.70. Maybe next time I'll brake stall it higher. If I still can't improve my time, I'll put the 125 shot in and get my 11 second slip.

Been away for a bit..
Thanks for the pics of the gauges. I am wanting to do them so bad... Was it a pain wiring them in or is it a cut the wires from the pigtails and connect type deal? I would be very greatful for any info you could give me.
I like you build man. I have an all aluminum 5.3 in my '96. It had a basic tune and I was (and still am as its not a daily) impressed with it. It is very quick. I am going to do a cam, converter and put it on nitrous and redo the wiring harness this winter if all goes as planned

Your project sounds great. Keep it up.

Elevens and a CTS-V
I ran last Wednesday with a 125 shot of nitrous. Best run of three was 11.83 at 113.5 with a 1.74 60 foot, spraying once rolled out. The slip below was my first pass of the night, against a four door Cadillac CTS-V. It was a RACE! I got him off the line, had him good by the 1/8th, but he was reeling me in on the big end. I got him, but it was close. I wish I had a video, but the slip tells the story.

10 inch wide Mickey Thompson radials. I'm headed down one last time this season October 25th. It's the last Friday night of the season. I'll spray off the line and see what I can pull for a 60 foot. I think to pull a better 60 foot with out the nitrous I need lower rear end gears. I'm not keen on changing any portion of the setup at this point. The combination is super street friendly and I don't want to mess up a good thing looking for a couple tenths at the track.

Right... The last Friday night Street Night at NED was a few weeks ago. With the cool crisp air I hit two personal bests that night. On nitrous, 11.6 @113.8 1.65 60' (125 shot). I shut the nitrous off in pursuit of a new NA time, I managed a 12.4 @107.8 1.8 60'.
Super stimulated for my new times... Not sure I can ever top it on this setup, Rob informed me the DA that night was -1500 ft
I finally met Rob (Vortec350SS) at the track. People don't get any better than him.
