I know javier has been at this stuff for years, maybe its just a knowledge thing and setting it up right.....I don't think his LE2 are any different than the ones going 112 or 114.

We will see what happens this weekend but I think we have a good 112 mph cam only full wt. car with minimal mods.

I trapped way higher 7 years ago with a hotcam only......And to be honest I made alot of mistakes with the install that was costing me 15 h.p. or more between wrong pushrods and incorrect install of the springs.

Any combo will take sometime to get used to and you typically have a small number of issues that show up out of no where with new combos.

Mid 11's should be pretty easy to get the first time out with good weather and track prep.

Javier, what kind of launches do you do? I am having troubles getting my 60's below the high 1.7 range (11.5" qtps on 15x8 rim could be why). I am just spin then launching launching still

We will find out this weekend, its a 503......Hope it didn't mess the car up to bad as far as hooking etc cause we had it perfect.

Not sure on the DA.......but pretty good I would suspect, I'm looking for 12.40's at a min. The headers are really holding it back....

yeah....the possibilities include:

1. Leave like a raped ape.
2. Break the rear-end.
3. Pitch sideways.

12.26@110.8mph with just the LE2.2 cam on stock unported heads. I had problems on every run, Im confident it will go 11's once the tranny shifts on its own. A h/c LT1 like was mentioned should go at least mid to low 11's no problem.

Probably run 9's on nitro.

I've seen a Impala do high 11's with a LE2 kit. Dont see why a much lighter car couldnt run mid to low 11's. Lot's of guys are new at this, just takes time, ask anyone who's been there.

4000 stall automatic, so my rules don't apply

That being said I run a 275/50/15 M/T drag radial on a 15x10 wheel. Still a 26" tire. See burnout:
