Appreciate all the comments guys! She definitely surprised me on that first run. I knew it was a faster run, big difference between 110 and 114 mph at the end of the 1/4.

As for future mods, I honestly don't know how far I want to go from here. It needs a built trans and stall to go any further. It would run 11s all day long at that point. Might just get this shifting issue worked out and throw some DRs on it for a 11.99 to 12 flat, IDK.

My want list looks like this however... rear mount turbo, built trans, 3600 stall, DRs, 9" rear.

i'd build the rear and throw a decent stall in it at the same time. then think about where you wanna go from there. wether it be boost, bottle pressure, or a nice cam/head combo or even leaving it as is.

Damn Stone. You're making me want to figure out what the 02 Z28 in my driveway would run. It's got nearly the same setup as yours, just no LT's/ORY. I don't get how you're getting so much traction without DR's though. Mine just goes up in smoke off the line with street tires. And if it doesn't go up in smoke, I'm trying to pedal it and it just short shifts.

IDK man, I basically just give it enough to squat and as soon as I feel the rear drop, I roll into it quick. None of that brake stalling crap or anything. Starting out idle and going from there basically.

Does your 02 have decent gears, or 2.73s? With a good tune, etc, it should run the same as mine assuming DA and the thousand other variables are equal, lol.


Greddy, I agree with you. Thats pretty much the route I HAVE to take at this point if I want to keep running it and/or to go any faster..
