Anyone Else Read the GMHTP Article on the Formula?
Very impressive numbers for minimal work. I have a question, are Formula's usually a little quicker because of weight? 13.6 at 100MPH is great for the minimal ammount of mods the car had. Other than the superam intake, all his mods are very minor and inexpensive. Imagine what that thing would run if it had a stall, DR's and headers on it. Anyone else running a similar set up to what this guy had? Sounds like a nice recipe for a car that can hang around with stock LS1's

Thats pretty bad for that work really. Hell with a new intake stock chip ,stock cam, stock heads I was running around 13.8 @100 in my 350 Formula. They seemed to have some mismatched parts there. I know of people running high 12's with just heads and a cam swap. BTW Formulas were the lightest car to come with a 350.

Anytime you can get into the mid 13s N/A with the stock L98 cam and heads, you are doing very well...... IMO.
