Default New MPH PB

Went to the track and couldn't cut a 60' worth anything. Based upon my new PB in the 1/8 and 1/4 MPH I should be close to taking down the internal LS3 record. That has been my goal with my LS2. My PB ET to date is 10.81 at 129.73 with a 1.58 60'.

Man those are some great heads.

Compare your results to mine below. Even assuming you are a better driver than me, you have significantly more power than me and 7 mph.

I think you have the quickest and fastest na ls2. And the only real difference is those heads. Ewp a little too I guess.

Great build and great driving. You are to be congratulated.

131+mph, very nice.
Finding your way below that 10.63 number won't be easy but it is still very attainable with your low race weight, keep at it man.

hey no problem with the help...i am sure i can beat his actual time with 60' practice...but from a dead stop he will take off b/c he is an auto...so i'll be happy as long as my time is quicker than him and i can beat him in other places besides from a dead stop at the track...
