Congrats to Chris S. aka Znines for running a 9.006@159mph with his teal 96 LT1 Z/28 yesterday.

I hope that Chris posts up the other 2-3 slips since the MPH was in the 150's for all of them...

He was pretty happy last nite we should have went and got some buffalo wings and some strippers!!!!!!!

 

That's hauling ballz!

congrats on the times. How did the shoot out go for you guys on sat? I wish i would have been able to make it out there.

 

Awesome Numbers for the LT1

I seen this car in the GMHTP mag and the detail in this car is awesome! Would love to see it in person. Great job

Travis

 

Congrats Chris. Really lookin' forward to the Outlaw class @ Thunder Shootout this year now.

 

I don't guess you have a video that run eh? hehe

Joe

 

I think there is video of that pass, might be a couple of days before it's up.

 

his setup?

 

-383ci
-LT4 block
-Ported GTP LT4 heads/intake
-Custom hyd. roller cam
-10:1 CR
-Vortech YS-trim (Cogged) supercharger
-Custom 3-core Spearco intercooler
-TH-400 trans
-FAST SEFI engine management system
-96lb injectors
-Weldon 2035

I don't remember the suspension (I know it is a stock style and he does run the car on a 10.5" tire), but you get the idea.........

I still think he would have been better off with a single 88mm turbo as well as a solid roller cam, but it is very impressive to say the least how fast he is going with an LTx based motor!

 

chris built the car with the blower before turbos were really becoming popular

i believe its on a 29" x 10.5 Hoosier slick

 

im guessing this is a very light car!

 

I'm not sure how much it weighs but if I had to guess by looking at it I'd say anywhere from 3000-3300lbs w/ driver....... That is not exactly very light in my book, but it is on the lighter side for a 4th gen F-body...... That is why I'm still very impressed by George Baxter's full weight convertible Camaro (it weighed 3900lbs if my memory serves me correct) that ran low 9's @155mph with a big old Vortech (X-trim??) supercharged LTx motor..... One thing I like on this car that Chris did is he got rid of that POS optispark and runs a distributor..... Most of the serious racers with a LTx based engine know that is the smartest possible thing you can do.......

 

what about heads..........are they still lt1 style.........or are they regular SBC heads converted for reverse flow?

 

The heads are GTP ported LT4s......

 

oops, i skipped over that part!
