But if your winning with the current technique then I would say stick with what works.

He has all the gauges but for him (65 yrs old), he's still trying to watch the tach and the tree at the same time. We still have no idea how much boost 3k rpm is.

The car is capeable off 1.4's with some gd boost. The two step and the trans brake will just make it that much more easy to do.

It was a lot of fun. Not long enough. The racing really killed the entire event. We got stuck at the track for 12 hrs each day in the heat. All I wanted to do was come back and sleep. I wish there was more time to mingle with everyone. The drag racers stuck together. Even at dinner. I'd really love to just watch and not race but I'll never here the end of that.

Just make sure to book your host hotel room soon if you haven't already.

I'm planning on racing. It should be fun. I am use to being stuck at the track all day so it wouldn't be to bad. Sound like a lot of fun and I can't wait.

Yea I need to book my hotel soon. I should probably do it tmrw.

Ok, I am considering swapping some stock 3:45s in to my L99.

I have 560 rwhp and the same rwtq.

Cammed, supercharged with the stock 6L80E and stall.

Is it worth the swap?

How easy is it to swap?

Motion427 · 04-11-2013, 05:44 AM

Easy to do. With a hoist,a couple of hours,even less with a buddy that knows what he's doing.
