Congrats JM!

A lot of us ran new bests, though not quite as "best" as that. Success with future mods too.

Thats awesome John !!!

Great 60 ft too, just a hair more converter and you've got your 1.5x 60 foot !!

I think you've got a 11.4x in your vette as it sits.... and the air is getting cooler everyday.

later

Have not taken my 396 to the track yet but it sure is a blast to drive on the street. Seat of the pants feels alot stronger than the old LT-1. :)

One thing is for sure....if the Mack goes for a 4400 Convertor... it'll do some wicked wheelies! along with neck snapping 60's. Definitely BIG SMILE material.

I thought of loosening my 2800...but not that much.
