New Best Time...
I really watch the forum board, even though all I have is a lowly Iroc, haha!
Anyway Saturday night we went to U.S. 41 in Marracco, IN. First time out with the 383. Went from 13.06 @ 105mph with a 1.97 60ft to a 12.18 @ 111.10 with a 1.72 60ft. No tuning or suspension work at all. Bowtye burned my prom for the 350 a couple of years ago. Seems to work pretty good. I am using a set of M&H racemaster on the rear. Left the time shack all smiles!!

Re: New Best Time... (Kwik88)
Hey watch the slams on the IROC please...I love driving my '86 IROC. :mad
Seriously, congrats on getting in some great passes; I love to see a sweet IROC clicking off some good times.:cheers:
With those hard launches have you upgraded to C-clip elims yet? Also, do you have sub-frame connectors?

Re: New Best Time... (65Z01)
Ski, Thanks. From your keyboard to Gods ear!! Congrats on beast you've put together too! I may be in touch with you for a new prom also.
65Z01, Thanks. No, no subframe connectors or c-clips. I'm still using Edelbrocks TES and stock exhaust, minus the converter. With some tuning, and a set of longtube headers and maybe some skinnies up front and a few other little things here any there I can see some 11.6 or 11.7s this summer.
