All in due time, just gotta tweak a few things..

I dont know that I will do anything worth while on a 1/8 mile track.

Yeah, waxing my 4.8's *** before I got EDIT and raised the shift points from 5600 to 6200. I dropped .5-.6 by bumping the shift points up.

We haven't run the trucks since I got the LS1 in it. Mainly because yours came out w/ a blown, low compression 360 and I don't have **** for it...yet.

Yeah...it's kind of like a midnight drag format, but there's no noise restriction. There are still some pro/super pro cars T&T'ing, but there are more street cars than race cars.

I haven't had the time or resources to get the motor out and have it looked at. If the crank and block are still good, I'm thinking about just staying w/ the stock displacement and throwing a set of AFR's and a bigger cam at it. If there's something REALLY wrong with the setup, I don't really know what I'm going to do yet. Probably a low budget 408 if I can swing it.

My 9.09 was w/ a 2.3 short time on my 20" radials. I have a LOT of other excuses, but I'll just say that I never really got a chance to dial everything in. I've got a whole lot of things planned for this build if I can ever get around to it. I'm swapping in a 4L80-e w/ 3200-stall converter, 4.10's and an Eaton, some Cal-Tracs. If I could even get a 1.9 short time, I'm sure I'd be in the 8.80's at least. Just have to get all of this crap outta my garage and into the truck.

BTW...welcome man! Sweet ride!
