Jesus that's quick. I'd imagine it's only going to get better once everyone perfects the head, cam work and tuning.

Unless the mods are exactly the same, how can comparison be made? And how can they be exactly the same considering the differences in the LS engines and the LT1? How radical the cam mod? How extensive the head mod? How efficient the respective headers? And the tuning differences are so complex as to boggle the mind.

Congrats.

What is going on with the trap? Every run you've posted today seems like it's petered out on top. A 9 sec car only gaining 22 mph on the back 1/8? My bolt-on LS3 gains more. Slamming on the brakes? Messed up track equipment?

Converter is too loose for the nitrous. We will have to tighten it up some and go back out.
