New suspension

[proace4]

I got the big three major things this weekend. An lg torque arm, bmr panhard bar, and bmr lca arms with relocation brackets.

This hopefully will help with my newly acquired rearend with 4.10s and summit pro star 15 x 8 with MT ETs. Trying to get into the twelves!

sounds nice. bmr torque arm? trans mount? it should all help with your launch

[proace4]

i didnt get a bmr torque arm, the price for the lg was too good. I hope so. i'm running 13.1 with like 2.2 and higher sixty foot times... so this has to help! lol

What are your mods? A 13.1 on stock suspension is pretty good. Whats your trap speed?

[proace4]

its just a basic bolt on baby cammed LT1. stock WP and TB. a little weight reduction and 170k mile suspension rolling on crappy ripken raptors. i trapped 107 to 108 pretty consisant. i just cant get out the hole to save my life! but i have been getting everything ready and hopoefully come saturday night it will all be put on and running strong. i cant wait to see how it reacts to the mods. i'll post new times up soon!

[Itsonlyanlt1]

Well LCA's will help you transfer weight. You need a set of DR's soon, because we all know street tires dont hook at the race track.

[proace4]

ya i got a set of slicks. summit pro stars 15 x 8. with MT slicks

[proace4]

welp let the suspension make over begin! off early and its time to drive to the shop and get started! i'll try and post pictures when its done!

Looks, good! I want your floor jack and your nice clean painted floor!:cool:

looks great, and who got the wicked sunburn?

[BIGT94z]

looks great man! get it some new numbers asap! hows a baby cam considered a bolt on lt1 though lol

[proace4]

thanks! I'm liking it so far. It kinda was a long drive at 2700 to 2800 rpm for 3 hours! LOL but passing has never felt better! There is a slight bit of gear whine with the 4.10s when deaccelerating. But it's minimal. I ordered a cable for tunercats. Hopefully I can figure out how to tune it.

And as for the sunburn... That was me. I had a brilliant idea to drive home with the t-tops out. LOL but it's all good.

[proace4]

Oh and about the cam thing. It's not a big one but I guess it is still a cam so I'll change my sig! I was just tired of people being like it's dammed and not in the twelves? LOL but not anymore!

[proace4]

Thanks! I'll let my dad know, it's his garage and it's awesome! Heated floors, all the tools I could need, great mechanical expertise, and HOME cooking! LOL the weekend was a success.

[proace4]

Thanks! haha ya datamaster had me so pissed off! it all kinda slipped my mind. but i might go on friday night so i'll let you know! hoping for mid 12s... with the Mickeys!

[wickedLT1SS]
