Jon Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 What were your IAT's during that final tuning pull? I wonder how a 35hp or 50hp shot of the giggle juice would help out? Beast of a car for sure. I'll have to check it out if it's at your shop when I come in for the suspension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LastC3 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Awesome Dave .... you're but a few degrees cooler temp, some good gas and a bit more boost ... and you're at the 1k mark ... what a ride that'll be >> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beast of a car for sure. I'll have to check it out if it's at your shop when I come in for the suspension. Without a doubt that or some meth would help a lot. IATs were running 160+. Billy took some video. I'm waiting for him to edit it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C4orce2 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Hey, look at post #23. Assuming your final numbers of 924/889 where on your dynojet, that totals 1813 and my guess was 1870.

Can't do it tonight, but just out of curiosity, what equipment would I need to run my convertible, assuming they don't notice or hear the LS3? At what point do you need a roll bar? With a stronger rear end (on the car that is) I was told it should be in the high 11s, but since I have never ran a 1/4 mile in anything and only have a dana 36 (with 3.73 gears)and street tires, hard telling what I would do. Probably so slow even Mike's DODGE could take it. I'm sure I will be out there sometime, especially if they have an "old farts" night! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're correct....the NHRA rules for vert's says that for 13.99 or faster you need a roll bar....they don't care what N/A motor you're running The good thing is that on certain track events, or "club days", Speedworld does not enforce that rule so you would be OK to run then. You'll always need a helmet, no matter what. The LS3 certainly has the power to get down the track in high 11's with the right supporting equipment and suspension....can't remember, you an auto ? If so, what transmission do you run ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't want to hurt the tranny or diff. I have only jumped on it once. Good surface, floored it and didn't hook up until well into second gear. The 3.73 gears just make it even more fun.

Bromley's Corvettes Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 I would swap converter and rear end and tires be four you run it. Your converter is real tight like super tight lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bromley's Corvettes Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Well, the final numbers are in. We are definately maxing out the F1A but I really don't see the point in pushing it any further. Thats a crazy fun amount of power in a vette. Tire shredding qarter mile burn out kinda fun lol.

You're right of course. The car simply is not set up for racing as is. Later on we will make some further modifications so I can run it if I decide to. Thx.
