sounds like you know what your doing.though i don't think everyone here is going as crazy as you are. my apoliges (i can't spell) but time and time again i do hear people without a clue pipen up.good luck with your build. we do go faster than that up here. my point was there's no need to in brackets because 11.75 is the fastest bracket. so you just sit there and wait 3 seconds for a light.

No offense taken. One question though... What makes me crazy?

Making fun of LT1s makes baby Jesus cry.


Have you seen Rodney's car? That car is a MEANNNNNNNNNNN bitch.... he almost hit the wall the other night during Midnight Madness at NPR... ****in ricers dragging water through the burnout box.

Not making fun of LT-1's up here. I'm actually building one as we speak. Lunati 383 w/ Futral/Meaux Stage 3 LT-4 heads/intake and a direct port NX kit. I don't guess I know who Rodney is. I usaully know most of you guys down there by nicknames anyway. Come join us in the LA section of LS2.com sometime.

Rodney is a local guy who holds the cam-only LS1 record in the nation. Somewhere around 10.2x @ 131 with a 6-speed in a Trans-Am using the T-rex cam on stock injectors, fuel pump, throttle body, rockers, etc.. Pretty mean car.

Scoggin Dickey has the lowest advertised price on the 4" Eagle cranks that I've seen.

Shouldn't that be 130+?? Even very light f-bodies don't run low tens at 120.
And that would be one guy, not guys? right?

I know that you got a little fired up but let's keep the male member size comparisons in check.

thanks

I was just making a point man, not trying to be politically correct. There's more than just one cam only car in the 10's. Maybe not low 10's, but tens none the less.
