went to milan today, did alot of waiting. my day almost ended early, i drove over something that punched a hole in my moroso DS2 http://images.ibsrv.net/ibsrv/res/src:ls1tech.com/get/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_sad.gif
but Rocky's Pit stop had a plug for my front tire! how cool is that.http://images.ibsrv.net/ibsrv/res/src:ls1tech.com/get/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_chug.gif
i worked with Madman a few weeks back when i set my suspension up on the car, he was a great help, he helped me get the car very close to where it needs to be, if not near perfect. unfortunately he is down south, and well, i am in the land of the great white north. i will be shipping a case of canadian 'pop'' to you
only had a one chance to run the fogger - 1.30 60' (track actually was not as good as it usually is) bars came in handy, just barely but they were there for me.
5.64 @ 123.62 mph in the 1/8th
8.81 @ 155.05 mph http://images.ibsrv.net/ibsrv/res/src:ls1tech.com/get/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_grin.gifhttp://images.ibsrv.net/ibsrv/res/src:ls1tech.com/get/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_grin.gif
thanks to Randy (Crew Chief) for partaking in the fun today. this was a new slightly larger tune up than I have run in some time, It will take me about 2-3 passes to get it just right. It was way fat, and I wasn't shifting to the light but rather to the sound of the motor not the light.
now i am thinking why i didn't turn on the fogger earlier this year.... oh yeah i was having fun on the street all year http://images.ibsrv.net/ibsrv/res/src:ls1tech.com/get/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_nod.gif
as always , big thanks to bryan for developing and building one badass SBC, with more than a little help along the way.
one more chance this year to get her out. umm i think it is time for a cold one!!!!!

Congrats big T !! I would love to see a vid of the run!
You are getting close to the nitrous record. I guess I should drag my junk back out and lower the bar a little bit lower. Keep me posted on the next trip to the track!

Taner, that's outstanding. I'm curious, is this the F-Body 6 Speed record, for all platforms (LT/LS)???
CARLOS
10-01-2012, 09:11 PM
Nice update Taner. Was that on the 300 shot? 1.30 60ft it's awesome for a manual trans, keep us posted

well that is one i will debate.... my trans is a fully functioning t56, you know all 6 gears, that work, etc.... the only car that i know has gone quicker is honeycutt's ls racecar. which only has 4 forward gears. in it. as well, i am not even sure what his quickest time with the 6spd is, was it 8.69??? he has had a doug nash in the car at one point, so i don't know if he even still has a t56 in his car.
so to answer your question, yes to both if you think a t56 should have 6 forward gears, and only lt1 if you consider a t56 is a t56 is a t56, regardless of having 4 or 6 speeds.
carlos,
thanks, but come on you think i am gonna divulge that, lets just say it was more than a 100 and less than five hundred :D and well, you have a few hundred pounds on me, i gotta keep you guessing how much i am squirting to stay ahead of the "Jones"

lol, i don't think that could have any faster! how is your car coming, i think you were on page 134, last i checked ;)
u can't go wrong with aftermarket fuel management, but the price seems a bit high. i love my XFI and wouldn't trade it for shit. but i guess the BS3's are great for boosted app. cars.

HAHA, no F'n around for me.., I get shyt done... lol
For the sake of dollars I am hoping to just stay with the OBD1 conversion...Still waiting for him to put the OBD2 computer and knock sensor back in and compare it to the drivability he tuned in the OBD1 set up... if the OBD1 is clearly better than the OBD2 set up... ITs done....(for now)....
Im all over the place, and honestly I really didnt want to add 3g to what my bill is already.... so fingers crossed he sees how bad drivability was when I dropped it off, and realizes that the 80% he tuned into the new set up is HEAVEN... lol

sounds like you will be the judge of that. i know what you mean by driveability, a little roughness is no big deal. look at me i drive my 396 solid roller all over! just a little valve maintenance and i still get to enjoy the car. honestly this has been the best year with the car in a few years. have driven the wheels off of it, new bests on motor and spray. so i am quite pleased. still another chance to get her out on spray in a couple of weeks. i hope to then swap the gear so i can get it out on the motor one more time. i still desperately want that single digit all motor slip. 10.05 in 2500 da, should get me a 9.9x in 1000 ft DA.
lt,
good to meet you as well, if your ls buddy wants to run that could be arranged, lol! if he declines then i can guess how quick his car isn't ;)
Carlos,
i see you like that shady response.

10-02-2012, 06:27 PM
IT def seems like your enjoying the hell outta the car.
Im glad for you man! Shame your not closer, our november meet at cecil county MD, would be an awesome shot for you as well for that single digit NA pass...

joelster,
niagara falls is 3.5 hours from me, 4 hours towing.
jeff,
thanks, i missed going this year. last year i just ran out of time. this year maintenance on all my other vehicles took precedence, meaning i drained my hotrod fund.
i hope to make it next year for sure!
popo,
i would love to come out there, problem is almost $4 per gallon, lol!!! i would have to stop by G Force and piss on their front door though because of the junk they sold me...i owe them that, i mean $4k in shit parts at least earns you a leak if not a dump right in front of their front door. but no really i am over that :D
