finally get to post some videos

i'll start off by saying, mods, please let this thread stay available. if you have to lock it, that's ok. i just want to, finally, post a couple of links to my v6 in action.

http://us.f2.yahoofs.com/bc/40da42f4...lKl2ABN3N3piWB
my 3.1 v6, idling, open headers, slicks on back.

http://us.f2.yahoofs.com/bc/40da42f4...YTl2ABfFulmqBd
my 3.1 against a new Z06 at the dragstrip

enjoy

edit: if those don't work, please let me know.

good lord man, you sure you weren't taping the RS but picking up the audio from a modded 350 nearby? that sounds incredible for a v-6...hell that sounds good for a 350

and that's awesome seeing you pull ahead for the first half...nice

Wait wait wait....that thing has exhaust?? It sounds completely open! Got any exhaust leaks? Jeez....that sounds louder than the exhaust on my Mustang! And that's a full 2.5" system with headers, an X pipe, dumped Flowmaster 2 CHAMBERS, and several minor exhaust leaks!

i haven't started with the carb swap yet. i've got basically all the parts for it but i still need to get a 4" cowl hood and then i need to get some time to do it. right now, me and my dad are about to start putting a 350 in his s-10. that's been a bigger priority.

the msd box didn't real give me any performance advantage but i thought i'd be able to add a 2-step rev limiter but later found out that i can't on this box. my front center caps say 'camaro' the back ones don't have inserts in them.
