Re: Bolt On LT1: New Record

RW is somewhere in the 3100 range, we did were not able to scale it.

Bolt ons include: CAI, 52mmTB, LT4 springs, 1.6RR, EWP, Hooker Headers/y-pipe, Moser 12/spool/4.33s, BMR K-member, BMR Upper and Lower A-arms, Herron Performance LCAs, PHR, and Tuning. Spohn Adj TA, Rear drag bar, Alt Relocation kit with PS delete, !HVAC, SJM LL/!ABS, !interior, APC Steering wheel, 1 cloth manual seat. 4" pin on cowl VFN Hood, !BS, 12" single fan.

Warriors on ET Streets 26/11.5/15.

If there are any left out mods it was not on purpose, but I believe that is an exhaustive list.

EDIT:left out EWP.

LMAO, what would make it a street car?
If I put Tags/Insurance on it plus the muffler, I could drive it anywhere and still pull nearly 20+MPG.....

What makes you say that? Because it's not your kinda car? Doesn't mean it isn't streetable.

Re: Bolt On LT1: New Record

Because it has no interior at all, its a full spool, and I doubt you would drive around everyday on ET Streets. Like I said, its impressive, but I find full interior, drive it like it is to the track cars more impressive.

I understand, and thru this year I will be adding back in the interior panels and some type of carpet. about 10#s of stuff.

But in reality it is in street mode, if i drove it to the track it would be just like it is when it is on the trailer....

I have seen others drive daily on ET Streets and a spool.

Any, doesnt really matter, this car's purpose was to run 11's with a stock motor, it has done it and it's alot of fun!!

What is NOT impressive is a 408LSx/AFR Heads/Cam/NX kit/D10s running low 11s, that is what is not impressive.

Re: Bolt On LT1: New Record

WTG Shon, the car is really running well. Looks like I may need to consider some weight reduction.

Re: Bolt On LT1: New Record

Weight reduction has helped more than any mods!

Re: Bolt On LT1: New Record

I'm hoping to move into the 3300# range this season - lots of reductions over the Winter with more planned.

Needs: Lighter carpet, lift off hood and tubular front end pieces.
