Nice, that thing should haul regardless of how fat you are! Be careful with those Optimas. You should get a trickle charger for it or just don't let your ride sit for extended periods of time, I learned that the hard way. Again man just beautifull thanks for sharing.

Rear end is narrowed 3 inches per side, car is mini-tubbed, wheels are 15x10 with 5 inches of backspacing, tires are tucked under the car, 325/50 drag radials.

Well man it was all worth it. I love how those fat drag radials look tucked under the car.

Anxiously waiting on your numbers. Track and Dyno

Wow thats so bad a$$. You had said that your heads are bigger? So that means that intake you have will not work with stock LT1 heads?
If they do I would like to get that set up done to mine. What kinda of HP gains do you see from that intake? I noticed a nice air gap.

ALso are you using the stock OBd1 PCM? I noticed that intake has a port for the Distributer. Did you block that off?

This would really not be worth doing on a stock casting head.

Yes stock obd1

Same thing happened to mine, I had a known good low mile opti but when I tried to start the car it sounded like the shootout at the OK Corral....popping and backfiring, new opti on the car and it fired right up. Held it at 3500 rpms and let the plugs clean up...yeeehah!

If the damn front end doesn't stop settling I am gonna run out of adjustment on the Hal's...I got to raise it AGAIN! For the third time.


David

PS thanks for the compliments everyone.
