07 auto. Bone stock other than the eforce and 3.42 gears. I only ran the quarter a few times and the best I could do was 11.5. The 128 mph trap speed will tell you that traction is a big issue because with that speed the time should be much quicker. A better driver that gets it to hook should make it into the 10's I'm sure.

The color is actually "Crystal Red Metallic" but yes indeed those slips are from Jason

For a stock car (with 3.42 gears) thats a dam fast time and an excellent trap speed (which shows the power increase). The edelbrock supercharger sounds like an awesome mod.

I look forward to hearing as time goes on how the everyday drivability, reliability and maintaince is so OEM like.

The small cam headers and the red vette rolling in at 134 mph trap speed is very impressive as well. (although I personally enjoy reading about the stock motor versions even more)

It's one nice pair of timeslips. I didn't say it was impossible to get a nice slip. It still doesn't change the fact that NA is much easier to be consistent at the track than a PD blower if you have less than perfect traction.
