Re: January 2013 COTM **WINNER**
Thanks again guys!
I'd like to make it out. Do you go to the Olcott show?
Cool. Hopefully she's running by then.
245/50/16 I believe. The prokit lowered it 1" and it rides much better than with the stock springs.
Yea, it only made 316rwhp. The tune was off, and I let off to early. I should have strung it out to 6500rpm. But I'm building a new engine so I have no plans to keep tuning the L98.
