Went to a SVT shootout. Great bunch of guys and it is fun seeing the Ford emblem in the rear view...

Off the road with just enought time to change tires it ran a 12.02 and then i went to the good lane and ran a 11.96!! Finally, an 11 second run from the car!! went several more 12.0s, I was happy.

Now it was time to try the NX 100 shot. Put on the 28s and ran 11.6X, 11.5X, and.....1.57/11.17@119.51. I could not believe it. Ran a low 11 on a 100 shot!!!!

I think the 28X11.5s are too big for my car, i borrowed them from an M6 guy and I just dont think my car shocks the tires enough to use such a wide tire. I hope to later use some 10.5 or thinner just to see. This track is always sticky so I am not conserned with traction!!

:D

Nice times. Now you want a cam setup that you can run 11.50's or better with N/A? I have my setup forsale so shoot me an e-mail if inerested. My car p/u over 3tenths N/A with the stock heads when I swapped to this cam. Later Clint

Congrats on the time. Gives me a little hope. I just ordered a TNT F2 kit, hopefully I will see some lower 11 second runs.

Been a while it seems since anyone went 11's N/A with the hotcam. Nice Job there, Shon.

Congrats! Those times are outstanding, hopefully I can come within 5 tenths of what you're running on the LT4 H/I/Hot Cam.

Were the heads out of the box LT4's or ported?

The heads have bowl work and 2.02/1.60 valves but this can be accomplished without such work. (That work was a waste of money!)

Shon what gear are you running? I currently have a 3.73 but have debated on changing to a 3.42.

I have 3.73 but want 4.10+ for the motor. But for NX runs I would go to a 3.73/27" combo or 3.42/26".

My NX runs were with the 3.73/28x11.5x15 ET Drags.

Good job man :D

I've been tempted to rebuild my tranny (nothing wrong with it now), throw a TNT wet kit on there, bang it with a 150 shot and pray for 10's :D (skip the 11's entirely lol..)

You won't need 150 to go tens. I hope to do it on 100 shot....

Javier take it from me if your trans is not giving any probs do not rebuild it:alert: Now i think your on the right track b/c with a 150shot and the right launch you could very well be in the 10's.
Shon I think it will be tough to get there on a 100shot but that is JMO. later Clint

I got a few tricks but unless I get some negative DA I really think 10s on 100 will be hard to do. Might can get there with a 125 but who knows....I really need to have that cage welded in to run legally. I just hate adding the weight right now but know it is for the best.

I dunno man... I'm putting in a new bigger stall in a couple of months, and the tranny is bone stock with 80k miles on it. I just don't think it would hold up to spraying it w/ a 125-150 shot..
