I gotta get my rxt/lineloc installed before I even attempt anything at the track, but that shouldn't be too far away.

This was closer than I anticipated, so i'm pretty happy with the outcome! The guys over on LS1tech are saying the my HCI is not optimal (which is somewhat true) and the extra weight is holding me back but it's all relative if you think about it! Sure I could do some weight reduction as well, a better intake, or even heads...but then greddy could do a lower pulley and maybe even a more aggressive port...it would be never ending lol

Sick run!! I watched it like 10 times on a row, lol. Both cars pull hard. Why no spray this time?

MrT, if you drop 50lbs or so, that should keep you right beside him. Have you dropped any weight? A FAST intake will help you a lot on your set-up. You do have an LS6 intake on there now right?

Thanks Stone! No spray at the moment cause greddy needs to tune for it since he advanced the timing a tad when he did the port on the blower.

I hear ya on the weight thing...realistically i'm probably around a 100 lbs heavier than greddy now. If I dropped that 100 lbs or just did a Fast intake it be would even more door to door lol. And yes I have the stock LS6 intake right now with a ported stock throttle body.

Overall i'm very happy happy with the outcome since my car seems to be getting faster and faster as it breaks in, and I get more seat time

I read the posts over on LS1tech. Def have to weed through some of those responses, especially Hio's. He is unrealistic. Those guys throw the word "optimal" around way to loosely imo. I agree you would benefit from a better intake by a good bit, but its not like your car is running slow or anywhere close to that. Your SS is flat out moving and even if you leave it just like it sits, you still have yourself a 122-125 mph car all day. Probably mid 130s on the juice.

Yeah some of those guys act as if money is no big deal, and I can just redo the entire top end...just like that lol! I agree and think if I do pull the trigger on anything it will be a fast 92 more than likely, and i'll probably have it ported as well. I like the 102, but it's not a direct bolt on like the 92. But then again if I pull off a solid win on the spray I may not do a thing lol!

Somehow I think greddy will do the lower pulley though, and then i'll have to up the game again lol
