The beast will be at the track soon :-)

Well I'm probably going to pick up a used (like 2000 miles) built 4l60e in the next few days, and when that goes in I'll throw in my vigi 3000 as well. Best run to date is in sig with dead tranny and crappy 60 ft (launching way too light even on stock stall...and they said this cam didn't have power down low ). Once the new tranny is in w/ the converter, and I can cut at least a 1.8 60ft w/ the stall on crappy nittos, then I should be in the 11's at around 115 or so. That's with NO suspension mods besides !swaybar :-). I am definitly putting sfc's on soon though since twisting the frame doesn't sound fun to me.

I also was maxing out my injectors and I just picked up a set of svo 30#'s so that will give me a good safety margin so I don't have to worry about going lean from lack of fuel delivery via the stock injectors. Bryan will have the new program here probably today and I'll swap the injectors once the car is back from the tranny shop.

I can't wait to get an 11-second slip on a stock appearing car (no draglites or anything like that yet), basically zero suspension work, and a budget build up heads/cam swap. It should be a blast!

What are the cam specs or are they secret I am going to swap cams and would like to break into 11's with stock suspension N/A too.

Yep that is the cam. I pick up the tranny today and hopefully I'll have it in by the weekend.

I'd be really amazed if you bent the frame....

...since it doesn't exist. J/k
