more pics as soon as its completed. I got it started today, but didnt have any time to act. run it since my manager was nagging me to leave. I'll be all over it first thing in the mourning though fo sho. man I cant wait, it feels like im 10 and its christmas night. tomorrow I'll button up the last few details and act. drive it. gotta break it in fast though cause I know the tracks arent open that much longer. cant wait to see what it'll run. next year I'll have the 200 HP nitrous shot on it and a roll cage. should be a blast. so F--- a first 11 sec. pass, Im gunnin for 10's

Looks good Chris. Now, you certainly need a trailer for something like that.

Re: my 383 beastie runs! a few pics inside

I got dibs on the first drive Chris. I predict 11.8 on motor. I however also predict that next year I will have to modify my car so that my car can keep up with yours. J/K
Better yet I'll try and build a diesel truck to run 11's. Then you can load your car up on my trailer and I'll tow you to the track.
Just joking Chris, the pics look great, I can't wait to see it run. A streetable 10 second car, running NOS, hmmmmmm. I'm just curious to what you plan to do with the IROC, you know you have to make it faster than the '95 right?

Re: my 383 beastie runs! a few pics inside

no problem man. did that freaking rattle come back? I havent gotten a chance to listen to any other LS1's to see if they do it. I drove it home today, felt sooo damn good to drive it again. cant wait till I have it broken in to really test it out. I have 25 mi.s on it already cant wait to hit 400. also, I have to do something about my batt. cable. I have the batt. in the trunk, and the cheap taylor wire isnt big enough to deliver enough juice sometimes so it just clicks. that sucks. I used welding cable 0/1 gauge and its perfect. so i have to switch that cable out. I washed it today for the first time since june. man what a bitch. it only raine a couple times on it so ti didnt look that dirty, till I started rinseing it off. man it was thick. time for some clay bar and a zaino job. I know what Im doin this weekend. lol

Hey Chris, sound/rattle has not come back at all as far as I can tell. But have only take it out and drove around a few times for an hour or so. Pretty sure though that you got what ever was causing it.
