.200" 154.8 111.0
.300" 213.1 149.4
.400" 249.4 181.4
.450" 265.2

.800" 294.6 222.0
Notice where it starts coming on strong at the .450" range. I thought that was pretty impressive. I am hope they do well!
Got the LTCC of a member of the board brand new. He bought the kit then sold the car before he got to install it.

I think the best thing we've got out of this project so far is the harbor freight 4 wheel dollies. Deffinatlly made the install super easy and they support the weight of the car. We rolled the whole car in the garage on them.

The motor is alright to.....

Very nice attention to detail.
If ya leave on the gas and it hooks it will stand on it's bumper. If it hooks with a trans brake it will be on the bumper. Ya got to get the LCA's at the right angle.
Very,very nice.

Depends on your height now. If its stock then yes but that isn't all there is to it.
Ya need your center of gravity,TA height in relation to the CG and your % of anti squat. If ya are running slicks the first couple of times on motor keep them at 25PSI. I have put them on the bumper even with that much air. If ya are running a 10" tire,slick or DR,ya got to set it up right to leave and not "hunt sky". Ya got a LOT to the tire with the hose and probably on motor too. It might just looks to far out.

EDIT: Do ya have the air conditioning box in that car? If it's a Camaro and those are 1-7/8" pipes the #8 cyl doesn't look like it will fit. Mine is damn near streight down off of the flange.I bet it isn't 2" to the outside of the pipe to the flange.

Air box is still in the car, but the air compressor and lines are gone. The headers fit, but they were close to the box.

Everything fit great. Even cleared the BMR K member by a mile! I was kinda nervous that it went so good. Something is bound to go wrong eventually though. (Knock on wood)
I can see I am gonna have to start researching how to dial in suspension.
