i'm running a top swap and 3.0 pulley with 16* of timing, stock everything.
its great!
**** I ran 23* of timing on my maxima...stock was 15*
n/a doesnt count.
When i was N/A i was running 24 at WOT.
Dont ask me how, it just happened.
Well that's a given around here. And you must have missed the part where I stated it was quick for the few engine mods it has, far from fast. if you aren't running 10's or low 11's in the Dallas area you are considered SLOW.:th_thumbsup-wink:Quote:

So, like I stated...eat your words...because your car is slow, espiecally where you live.Quote:

Chris Green ran my cam back in 2003 at the Alamo City Shootout with a stock transmission, slicks, SLP Headers, Thrasher Full-Size IC, Injectors, some sort of tune, and a intake with a 2.8 or 2.6 pulley...he went 12.2 @ what...110 I think...shredded the transmission shortly after. He was a big dude too...north of 250lbs+ So...since he had stock heads/trans/other junk...and I've got a built low comp. motor/3EP trans, heads and the valvetrain to support the higher powerband of the TEP Cam...I don't see why 11's aren't impossible.
Just please stick some DRs on your car blue and see what that thing will do in a 1/4 im sure your could crack 11s
Again you fail. I never once stated I was fast and could careless to be there. My car is piss slow(comparing apples to apples) and will continue to be so. There are better platforms to begin with when it comes to modding and wanting to make something "fast."Quote:

no **** genius. we arent a bunch of ricers that think we are badass in our gps. it is funny however when a properly modded gp beats a "so called sports car". also considering there are much worse platforms i see no problem in the w-body. or should i just jump on the bandwagon and go buy a mustang or camaro like every other jackass out there, no offense to anyone who owns one though.Quote:

If it's a 302 it can only handle 500hp before it splits the block. I was more or less referring to RWD with a SBC. Doesn't have to be a Camaro, but something like a Vega, s10, or squarebody blazer. :drool:Quote:

Did you really say an s10 is a better platform? Please tell me how you get traction in a build s10.
Dallas apparently never heard of Mr. Flip Flops then.Quote:

Please tell me you read and understood I said a SBC. Which would require a swap in the vehicles I posted. I take it you aren't familiar with any of them?Quote:
