Scream.....for the first time in a while you've given me some hope. Your 1/8th trap was higher than mine, so you're 1/4 will no doubt better, but I did get a 7.40 the last 1/8 track I went to. Maybe there is hope for me and mid 11s

SSlow 4.8: the best b/f this weekend was only a 13.9 @ 101. I picked up quite a bit with the little 100 shot!
Slow...Here's a quick list of what mods I have done to the truck at Speedfab before the 11.5 run:
The Pacesetters were put on before it went to the shop, but I didn't have any 1/4 numbers.
Here's a before/after comparison of my timeslips from the first time I ran w/ the LS1 swap, to my best motor pass and nitrous pass from this past weekend:
TIME----R/T----60'----330'----660'----MPH----1000----1320'----MPH
11:27---0.239---2.306---6.057--9.091--81.08--11.697--13.917--100.99
TIME----R/T----60'----330'----660'----MPH----1000----1320'----MPH
2:12---0.163---2.072---5.716---8.618---84.91---11.091--13.190---107.42
3:44---0.086---1.751---4.860---7.447---94.22---9.682---11.578---118.98
I can only guess that the dual 3" exhaust lost me some low-end torque but allows the motor to breathe really well up top. I don't care, it sounds WICKED!
Slow...Here's a quick list of what mods I have done to the truck at Speedfab before the 11.5 run:
- 4L80E swap w/ Yank 3200-stall converter and Transgo HD shift kit
- 4" aluminum 3/4 ton G-van driveshaft
- NX MAF kit (100 shot)
- 4.11 gears, Eaton posi, T/A girdle
- Cal Trac traction bars
- Pacesetter LT's
- dual 3" exhaust

On my last/best 1/8th my 60ft was a 1.96(or something close to that) and it went 7.40@92.???mph. I had to increase the window switch ON pill from a 3000 to a 3400, and still got some wheel spin. I just wish I could launch off the spray one good time and have it stick. I think the time would be very decent.

I had the same issues when I put the Escalade covers on my 5.3, you can see where its hitting. I would like to see if the Escalade or SS tube is different also. Yeah its dirty too......

I have a set I'm not using. I wish I was though... I had trouble getting them on. I think that I need to remove my EGR valve first, ...and I'm not really up for doing a CPU tune. So let me know. It's brand new and I would like to recover some of the money I dropped on them. The center piece has the 6000 on it.
