Curious myself.....driver 350+lbs or what? Start weight reduction THERE!
Spit out that 9th grader you swallowed and you'll pick up 5MPH+

All in fun...

1350rwhp with a 4L80.. twin 67s. I think it may be one of the first 4l80s in a gen 2 V. Parachute mount behind license plate... All the fun stuff!

Now I'm looking into suspension!

Will post a build thread in the coming weeks.

Which 67's you going for ?

Heres a video. It kept blowing the tires off so i couldnt turn up the power any more that night.

bct10985 · 10-04-2013, 05:05 PM

Could sitting so low affect the weight transfer?

Nice!

As they are probably figuring out, it takes a sh!t ton of power to move these 3900lb cars shaped like a brick. From what I have seen, once you get these cars to 10.50's @ around 130mph it starts taking some serious money and power to go faster. I don't know how much power you guys are making in that video or what the mods and set up are but I bet it takes another 200HP to go from 150mph traps to 160mph traps at full weight. Fast car non the less, congrats.

With a drag cd in the 0.37 range, they really arent that brick like in reality

But it does seem to get any car 150+ is a huge effort, even more so a heavy one.

PM me if you are interested to improve your suspension. I did both Darth Emma's Camaro (8.49@168) and Mark Carlyle's Corvette (6.82@223)
suspension work.
