Default EFIALCHEMY fixing my Z

I dropped my diff on the 5th run of the night @ Gainesville.
http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t...e/DSC01291.jpg
I was loaded with a new 383 Stroker and a 390 gear. Mark is fixing my diff now. Below are some vids of his Yellow Bird.

EFI Alchemy Yellow, anything but Mello Bird

..the Hot weather... and him scared to do the Pitt 6800 launch (because he is smarter than me)...kept him from hitting the 10's again. Cold weather (if we ever get any) will put this Bird into some serious 1/4 mile times. This Boy can drive and work on anything that uses GAS !! If you have a weird problem on a GM product and need help...this is your BOY !!! Team Pitt tells it like it is, no BS here !!!

Run #1 http://s160.photobucket.com/albums/t...=MyMovie20.flv

Run #2 http://s160.photobucket.com/albums/t...rent=Mark2.flv

Alittle slower all night as the clutch got hot..
Run # 3 http://s160.photobucket.com/albums/t...rent=Mark3.flv

This Bird is only getting better with age. Mark drove it about 90 miles there and 90 miles back after several runs. Tune is by Doc & Rick @ EFIALCHEMY ...What a Team these guys are. From a motor problem to electrical issues...these are your boys !! Trust me. Just had my Silverado in for AC wireing nightmare. Local shop spent 3 days and couldn't fix it..they had it wired to a toggle switch. Mark had it working in a day and back on the original GM panel. I don't care if you are a 10 hour drive or more..these Boy's are worth the drive if you have something no one else can solve. Hats off to Mark, Rick & Doc !! This is no Sales Pitch..Trust me....hold me responsible for these words !!

Team Pitt (Kyle & Bob)

I have about 200 passes under my belt with various Mustangs in the past, but only 3 with my Corvette. I need to get back into it!

Doh... I remember you now. I met you the one time I took my Z06 to Gainesville, haha. I told myself I'd never go back on street tires, but it's hard to resist. Your black Z was hauling *** all day.

Always good to hear about a shop that can fix cars right the first time.
