Default Lost 4 Tenths!

Track night tonight! With just 3 peice mach undrive pulley from TPIS and non Custom (standard program) chip from Ed at fastchip.com!! Went to the track, and thats all I added from the last run last year.

Im at 4000Ft above Sea Level, so would be running about 13.2 at the better tracks!! No headers (yet) stock L98 engine internals with 150K miles. I think this is the biggest bang for the little money spent!

Nice runs and a solid ET.

I know the underdrive pullies help, not too sure about the Chip.

Do you have a ported MAF sensor ?

Looks like you ran about a 13.6 at your alt.

Since you have upgraded your ignition, try stock plugs with cut-back ground electrodes and open up the gap for another 10th.

For about $50 for GM gaskets you could clean up and port your stock headers.
