Laylo, congrats to you for still doing what you love . I’m 45 and I know what you mean . Tired of getting under cars and wrenching on them . Im not after the list either , im just trying to go as fast as I can . I’ll have Heads and cam in about 2-3 months and I bought a streetable cam to match up with my converter . If it goes 9.9. I’ll be happy. If it’s not enough , I can always throw a little nitrous at it and see what happens . It’s really hard to compete with the top guys . You got basically strip your car and go high ram to even have a chance

Well your car just keeps getting faster with the right mods being applied. Awesome! What kit did you install?

I got the regular street drag race kit. I actually weighed them on a bathroom scale and all together I saved 49ers off the front end and I guess some rolling resistance .
It made a bigger improvement then I thought because it ran this number at 1700DA.
And thanks for the kind words fellows. I have heads/cam sitting in my garage but don’t know if I want to wait for cooler weather to try and go 6.69 on bolt ons.

Here are the rest of the passes that night . Da was 2400-1700. I believe of Da was better this car would of had a 6.69 in it . But I’m tempted to just throw the heads/cam in there and run 9’s in the 1/4.

A 6.70 calculates out to 10.56. You should get real close to your goal with the heads and cam set up.

Thanks for the help. Heads/cam, maybe a few swear words, a buddy to help and you’re ready for an updated tune!

Wowzers! That’s light! What did you do for weight reduction (besides drag pack) to get down that low? Nice times BTW!

Thank you . Front sway bar, belly pan, pass seat, lightweight battery , rear seat and trunk liner , dragpak, aerospace front Brakes , front bumper support , Windshield washer reservoir , and headers/no cats eliminate some weight . Car is an LT1 with no aero or wing, base model. Car still has stock exhaust and stock drivers seat.

That is for sure light. Mine was 3620 with 1/4 tank, that's bone stock weight. That's less then my C7 weighed when I went from stock exhaust on my C7 to Speed Engineering Long tubes and X pipe I save 45 lbs plus the drag pack took off another 50 lbs which got it down to 3274. I may do that on this car also. Just haven't' decided yet sense I should be going back to a Magnuson SC pretty soon. So, I'll add another 75 lbs or so.
