Yup I went to e-town this morning and got 4 runs in. I spun on all 4 runs but my 60 foot were still decent. Best run of the day is as follows

R/T .490 red light doh
60' 1.691
330 5.062
1/8 7.836
mph 87.91
1000 10.222
1/4 12.225
mph 112.77

best 60 foot of the day was 1.66 but i was still spinning off the line. **** e-town, im running at Atco in a week or 2.

Great job, man!! That's how that setup is supposed to run. It's too bad I won't ever find out, cause I'm going to switch over to a bigger cam. The vette guys all preach about the SR/219/AFR combos because you not only get 11-12 sec times, but your car still keeps all of its street manners. I'm really tempted to keep the 219 cam because I don't want to lose a lot of low end, but I'll see what happens. Anyway, I think your setup is about is as fast as it's gonna be with your current mods. I'd look into some weight reduction and maybe play with the timing a little more to find that 11 sec slip.

Hell yes!!! Great times. It's good to see someone else with this combo. EXCELLENT street manners, mild cam, nice torque, and good ET's.

I hope to finally get mine tuned in a couple weeks here and put my nitrous kit on it.

How much porting was done to the SR?
How much $ was the custom chip?

From what I know Atco is good but E-Town is the better track.

Hmmmm....

Not to shabby my friend! That is a good running machine you have 112 trap speed can get you into the 11s if you plant that sucker off the line....

Are you running slicks? Skinnies on the front?

With those trap speed you are right up there with the rest of the heavy hitters and their similiar setups!

Great job!

Looks like that setup has 11 sec potential. Good luck.
