Installed TB ported by Bo White:

Installed R2C cold air:

Very happy with the increase in power and throttle response.

Next underdrive pulley and maybe full exhaust. Then dyno and then drag strip!

I wish i could see all the pics ya posted, I think i need to talk to you about getting my silverado to hook

Pro Stock John · 06-27-2012, 06:05 PM

Should be easy to get a Silverado to hook.

jrpxxii · 06-27-2012, 06:21 PM

2nd pick of your older car is at my home track of good ole beech bend raceway

Pro Stock John · 06-27-2012, 06:25 PM

Yep, Chris Endres and I rented it that year for the NFRA 2001 race. We'll be there for the third LS Fest too with the Murder Bird (LSX ODR #385).

Nice build thread. Keep posting the mods and their effect.

Can't wait to see you crack the 11's.

I amuse myself by how many cosmetics mods I am researching, very atypical for me.

JacFab front bracket, I will take a better pic:

Was ziptied:

I tinted all my windows 35%, looks dark at night but it's legal and the pop can't say nuthin'.

Installed the Vararam wedge, I perceive an increase in low-end torque which keeps my car from shifting down a gear or more when giving it mild throttle like when I'm merging into traffic. I like this mod.

Jeff Lee took this pic at LS Fest, and I ripped it off, but it was such a good pic. I removed my front license plate, takes 2 seconds with the JacFab bracket:

My replica 20x9's showed up this week, and my 275-20 Nitto drag radials showed up yesterday. I plan to run my stock P-Zero 275's up front and the Nittos out back.

My car will be in an article in the next issue of Camaro Now, which should hit the stands on 10/2. But suffice to say, I did a number of bolt-ons and have run quicker than my stock time.

I've also returned my transmission four times, trying lots of little stuff, and I learned a lot. I'd go run with stock tires right now but honestly the car leaves so hard now I don't think I can run my typical 1.95 short times anymore on 'em.

Fingers crossed, wheels/tires on tomorrow!
