Well after basically taking a year off from drag racing, (new baby-busy business-bla bla) it's time to come back with a bang. So it looks like 2011's mods to my vert will be;

Upgrade power glide main shaft for ZR1 diff and cradle

RHS 427
Callies Magnum crank
R&R aluminum rods
Diamond pistons
Mast heads
Jesel rockers and 9.04 lifters
ARE 4 stage dry sump
A1000 boost controller

And for the power adder, twin cogged NOVI 2500's.

I'll post up some pics of the set up when I have it in the car.

That should keep me happy for a while, and yes, I'll still drive it on the street.

I have the brackets made, and the engine parts just have to be assembled but they are all here. I'm just waiting on some of the cogged pulleys and I have to make the balancer, but I'm close. This was all part of a master plan when I went to a manual rack and relocated the alternator to where the AC normally goes so I had room on the drivers side to do this.

This is what happens when you have an over active imagination and a CNC machine at your disposal.

On kill I expect that should make 30-35lbs, but I'm heading into uncharted territory for me, so ill let you know when I get there. Each 2500 could easily make 20 lbs plus, but I think the combo wouldn't net 40. Sticking with an air to air for street use, but a thicker core then our base kit, and C16 fuel on the track. I don't street race, so pump gas is fine for cruising around. Should be fun.

30-35 is still a good bit. Should be a bear period esp on C16. Can I supply you with tires? Be safe.

Should make 750+ to the ground. Depends on how aggressively you tune it. E85 will take the timing though.

Got a couple things dropped off today!

The SpeedInc High-Flow rails will be up for sale because I didn't realize that the LS1 and LS2 manifolds actually had different mounting geometry. I thought the only difference was the injector dimensions. These will not fit my LS2 manifold.

Traction:


Fuel rails:
