New Nitrous best,more to come.

Went to cecil today,pulled about 50 more lbs outta the car,and ran the 175 jets.

First pass,in the heat but low humidity was a 11.02@124,7.06@98,1.62 60'
Not bad for a STOCK longblock LT1 and a 175 hit in 95° temps.

Later in the night i went a 11.09@122 with about 85-90% humidity,and another 11.02@122 at the end of the night. I couldnt bring myself to run the 200 shot just yet,cooler weather and the car will go 10's as is

Awesome!

What fuel pump? And have you ever scanned a run to see if you're getting any knock?

I'm looking to do the same thing, but I'm still getting knock even with stock timing. I'm going to try new plugs and/or wires soon.

walbro 255 in tank. I have a LOT of false knock from the exhuast hitting the floor,so my knock sensor is locked down to pull 2° max.
I read plugs more then i rely on a knock sensor,you get a better idea of what is really happening.

I also pull 3° through my MSD,and run VP C10 unleaded.

Where did you get your Walbro in tank fuel pump, and how much did you pay for it?

Guess I better up grade the pump before I try the 150 shot. Was it a pain in the a$$ to install?

not really,we just cut a hole in the floor and changed it that way. also had to modify/lose the fuel bucket.

There is a thread in LT1 tech about cutting the access hole,do a search and it'll come up.

those times are amazing.
How long have you been spraying on the stock bottom end?
Do you have any idea what your AF ratio is? When do you hit the nitrous?

Thanks

VERY IMPRESSIVE!

Now here is a guy that optimized the potential of a nitrous kit!

Stock engine and what not and the car is nocking on running in the 10's. WOW!

Those of you out there running stock engines with nitrous should be begging RacingLT1 for his tuneup/setup.

How many of you guy's can say you made your stock LT1 that normally runs either 14's to high 13's drop down to run low 11's? I would guess not to many of ya.

Great Job!

Jim

never checked air fuel,dont have a wideband,and stockers arent worth crap.

Been spraying it for just under 2 years now.

I used to use a progressive to get if off the line,it doesnt seem to like that anymore. I have beter luck using a 2/10's of a second delay (that's 2/10's after WOT) and hitting it with all 175.

Jwinn,the car normally runs 12.5's or so in the heat,but im still amazed it's going as fast as it is.

Do you know what your car weighs?
What have you done to reduce weight?

Thanks
