With the stock converter it did run 12.41 at 112 on 150 shot,but i thought it was a little soft on the motor pass 13.7 at 102 ? But i guess thats about right for that little cam.My stall will be here this week,i have a lightning to race this weekend so it better hurry.I think i would be ok racing it without the stall but better to be safe than sorry,i want to show him my new 06 taillights.Is there gonna need to be alot of tuning required throwing in the stall ? If so whats gonna need changed ? Thanks guys

That time sounds good to me, I had all the same mods pretty much with a yank converter flt trans and a bigger cam than you and got beat by a stock trailblazer SS all day. So you should be happy with those times.

Your truck weighs what mine weighs on street trim




Thats a pretty small cam man. Put that converter in and a bigger cam and watch the times drop a lot.

Everytime I hear someone used a CAT scale, the weight is way higher than normal.
