Well done! And AES builds one hell of a boost-ready iron shortblock for a good price. Great choice!

ha ha ha yeah the streets is pretty much a disaster, even driving slow in town and everyone stops and looks or pulls over thinking something is wrong cuz the BOV is so loud it sounds like a jet airplane and is almost as loud - I haven't even tried the actual street tires on it yet, it blows off the 14.5 QTP's at any speed.
I had the Q1A shocks and if i set the to soft on the rear it would wheel hop bad! I think they had 15 clicks i set them on 8.

I'll still on stock suspension and irs with c6z shocks and stock base 99 leafs...front bar off and rear bar on again c6z stuff....my biggest issue is I need to short shift my 1-2 shift cause it blows the tires on the ****...was planing on shifting around 7k but I've backed it down to 63-6400... Also my 60 foot is not that great.....I installed a set on Lakewood drag shocks front last year but didn't get a chance to make a pass...now one side has started to leak(Junk)?......swapping to 3.73 this year to help pull this hog out of the box......what tires you on 275 or 315?
Oh ya...as far as street driving maybe a 30inch will help otherwise I really don't think anything will hold these cars....my 275 pros are useless
