Its actually very clean, gold with black stripes and nothing over the top. What would a mildy modded LT1 be pushing power wise?

He parked next to me a couple weeks ago and we chatted briefly but I was kind of in a hurry.

Btw good runs man! Kinda makes me wonder how some of these runs would of gone if you still had the v6

Lot of them running around with full bolt-ons, NO tune, running pig rich, etc. I love mine, but seeing that a new 5 liter can run the same ETs and trap higher without even cracking the engine or trans open leaves me a little unimpressed with her. :/ I know I can spray it, etc and get things done, but its not the same feeling having to have so much help when cars like yours can do a lot more with a stock cam(s), stock heads, NA, etc.

I don't see Stone giving up his Fbody any time soon, even though he goes through cars like Ron Jeremy goes through condoms, if he used them
