Blue One runs 7's i think..... I can find out and letcha know saturday. I ran 9.3's @ 72 mph. Theres two Videos in the video section of my car, Getting the tires sticky, and then making a Run. Oh and the blue one, that one does complete wheelies, Not Street Legal. as you may have guessed. mine lifted the wheels just enough to see sun light under the front tire, But after i stiffend the unibody and put in Air shocks, she stays down, Which is what you want for bracket racing..

No way you lifted the wheels off the ground with those times... that's hard to believe. What have you done to the rear suspension and what tires did you have on?
Two years ago I ran mine in the 8th for a 9.58@75.99 and it wasnt even close to lifting the wheels. I'll probably be lucky to do that this year and it should run high 7s/low 8s in the 8th.

Well, with air shocks, it actually keeps the front end down. I sent the picture of the light under the driver side tire to the school for my senior Picture thing. I mean, How many street cars can lift em'? well, I had 225/60/15's I had the engine at 2500RPM at launch and when the light was just about to turn green, I gave it all it had.
Suspension was pretty Much stock.
The engine and tranny.. Tranny is Not Stock. the Torque Convertor is a Lockup. The engine... how do i put this? The engine is out of a 1988 Chevrolet 3500 5.7L with the Huge Stump in the heads(which are the 192's.) Basically the heads make power from idle to 3500Rpm and thats it, anything obove 4,000rpm is no diffrent. The car pulls quite hard.. Id say 320hp at the flywheel about 280 at rear wheels. Torque is way higher.. Thats what the engine is made for, All torque.
I have a picture of the front end lifted up but, its not off the ground like the other picture That the school has.

Im not Gonna lie. heck I told you I have the stock L03 everything besides the engine itself.. Thats Embarrassing enough! lol,
I just got off of ebay, I was looking at 350 ECM's and Injectors. Like 300 bucks and I'll have a total 350.
