Took the car out, first time in years.
Started right up, ran some solid 11.4x's.
Here is the Timeslip of the best run of the day:
This is a 1989 Vette running a stock bottom end.

Hey Vic. Glad to see the car is still running well. I see you added a C5 to the mix. Any mods for it planned?
I really had best intentions of getting to a CC event this year, but unfortunately it didn't work out. Oh well, there's always next year.

That's flying especially for a stock bottom end car!! If you don't mind me asking some of the details, such as what gears, converter, cam, etc.
FWIW, best I ever ran with a stock bottom end was 117.3 mph and 11.71 et. That was 4.10 gears, 3000 stall, reworked factory heads, and a hotcam.

Hey Vic, that is really impressive, especially considering the size of that cam!! I forgot to say, I have weld wheels as well. Several years ago, I drove to NJ and purchased the one's John Mackey used to run on his 96. You probably seen those wheels and tires on many occasions.
