I won't be able to get near the race weight needed. 3570-3620rw on drag pack depending on fuel level is about the best I can do. Converter is a no because I want the car to stay a good all around mountain/road course car too. Seats stay in!

May look at some Hoosier tires sometime to cut some more rotating mass. Mickey Thompsons are heavy for sure.

I was just doing a comparative analysis. I don't feel bad if we are only 4.5 tenths behind on a slow track if all of that stuff was actually done to his car.

Just checked my time slip......that 1/8 time appears to be in the ballpark of 11.50's. Nice run.

Thanks, may or would be at a decent strip and DA. Here at Fontana 1/4 mile the DA is never great and best was 11.731 at just under 119. The first 1/8 is at a uphill also.

I'm thinking to switch tires to Hoosier DR2 315/30/18 and go for 11.5s or maybe even 11.4s. But I can't really complain with 11.61 on bone stock stick shift car.

I do want to get into 11.4s bone stock and then E85 tune, long tubes & x-pipe hoping I can get into 10.99. After that I’ll go ahead and get SC.

You might consider doing pistons when you get ready to add the supercharger. LT1 Pistons do not like cylinder pressure!!!! We just got one(truck) in from another shop with only a whipple and #4 piston was broken. If it's not an LT4, and you're going forced induction, it needs pistons. If you're doing the pistons well you might as well do the camshaft as well. Anyone who tells you not to do pistons does not have adequate experience with LT direct injection engines.
