Haha, you know I will man. IDK if it'll happen this weekend due to the weather (mid 70s and a chance of scattered showers), but with the trans fixed, I'm wondering if it has a 12 flat in it as it sits. BUT, I'm highly considering yanking the front sway bar (18-20lbs off the front end) and passenger seat (maybe 25-30lbs) for an attempt at a high 11. Should stir up some stuff if I can pull it off, especially being on the stock stall and Hankooks, lol.

Haha, like you're not going to kill me with that new set-up! At least let me cam it before you unleash your built motor and 150 on my bolt on LS1!

psh, built motor and 150 shot will prolly only net me 11.6's MAYBE. a cam with your magical touch would be like low 11's. haha.

****, I wish. I could prolly see a mid 11 out of a mild cam. With a stall and cam, low 11s all day. Wish I could afford to do all that stuff at once lol. Seriously though, by Mustang week, it MAY have a small cam in it by then to be honest. I'm back and forth as usual, but a little more top end would be nice (117-120).

Would love to see how our cars would stack up as it sits....

as they sit right now, I'd say I'd get you right off the line but you'd quickly reel me in and pass me before 70mph or so. If you cam it, you're racing my buddy too so atleast you can see one set of mustang tail lights lol.

Defiantly pull the front sway bar and passenger seat! These cars are built for drag racing, no reason not to do it when you are so close. I am amazed you are not on DRs...

I know what you mean. I was back and forth everyday about putting heads & cam on my Z06 when I first started modding. I didn't feel comfortable enough to do the install myself and it was going to be about $1300 just for install. So I decided on the nitrous route instead. I think next year after I am comfortable with the nitrous and everything there will probably be a cam going in. I love the fact that with my LTs I can hear my cam, but it is very mild and I would love to hear a little more LSA, lol.

I'm still amazed at how quiet my setup is.. Buddy and I had a conversation today, cruise set at 75mph, t tops off, windows down with no problem. No drone is good!!

Would like to hear some lope though instead of whatever the hell the noises are my engine makes.
