cam is pretty healthy

246/254 at .050
.495/.510lift
(intake/exhaust)
eddy 800avs with an rpm air gap
the rear is 4.56 gears with a posi
turbo 350 trans
445ish horse

how do you all think i would do against a new camaro?

it sounds to me like you've got quite a healthy edge on any stock camaro........thats quite a setup you're running there.

Think you'll edge out an SS

IROCanSS · 06-12-2010, 11:13 PM

how is your traction? that could make or break you. Sounds like an AWESOME car... you'd take me at the track no sweat. I am terrible off the line but come to my back woods country roads and I will leave ya behind! LOL!

traction with 26psi is alright, not the best but i can do 3/4 throttle off the line and then go all out usually works for me

i think you would out 1/8th mile a new SS, but after that youre done.

anyone else?

I think if you get off the line with WOT and stick like glue you will take a new SS at the track. I think a new manual SS will run you down though if you dont get a 100% torque down at the line and make it hook. JMO

All that work and no track times? Why not head to the T&T at the track to make sure she's all tuned up?
