Running 100 mph in the 1/8 is impressive even though you are using a power adder to do it. A lot of cars have trouble doing that in the 1/4.

Welcome to TGO.
Yes, thats what I was also thinking. Car should be good for some 11.00s in the quarter mile.

i almost have the 9" rear end conversion and LS1 rear brake conversion done. i have a bmr adjustable torque arm to install too. i hope it will hook a little harder when i get this done. it hooks better on the street than at the track for some weird reason. that does come in handy at times though. hehe
