Its been 2 weeks and 5 hours since i have driven my corvette. She is in the shop getting her upgrades. I will have her back friday. wow i cant wait. only 2 more days

ok question time-

92a4 - 2.59 gear

I ran a 9.2 in the 1/8 mile. this isnt the most accurate course- actually i think its a little over 1/8 mile.

I am having a new cam (224/230 .544 lift 112lsa)
ported and polished head- also 3angle valve job
1.6 magnum rocker
double coil comp springs
mezeire electric wp
custom chip-from comp(actually from street &performcance in Mena AR)
new Pro Magnum lifters

what can i expect in the 1/8 and in the 1/4


I will be going to a 3.73 or 3.54 gear in a month or so

thx

until you get gears, it won't be all that dramatic... but it will be quicker.

hard to say... low 13s in the quarter is a good guess. get those gears and you will easily be in the 12s.
