I tend to name all my engines after I build them and write it on the head. It is something I learned from my father. Maybe a little superstitious.

I need to rewrite "The Undertaker" on mine..........  Just jump in with both feet and do the 3:73s and call it a day. Just keep it in the back of your mind coming out of the hole and she'll last you till the 9in is ready.

But I dont know about that "snake eater" thing. Just dont get bitten by the snake when you try to man handle it!

If you beat me, then I will wipe it off and rename the motor. Deal?

You need to just grow up and put gears in it or you will get skull drug due to the lack of power. we could cruise at 90 MPH to the track for you.

Trust me Im not afraid to run her balz to the wall! I launch hard, and wish I could shift her hard too but my tranny is my weakness right now and I dont think she will survive the first event but hey...that is why we have ADAC!
Please keep me informed on the Crack dealings. I need one or may be 2 bottles to tune the car. I need to develop a 100, 150 & 175 shot tunes. Its imperative for me to get those tunes straight...as a bare minimum I will need one bottle to dial up the 150.
Silas,
I got Steeda to ship it, they will utilzie UPS but since the kit is modular its not as large of a package as you may think.
Lastly...........DONT FEAR THE GEAR BRO! I just went up in gearing to 4.56s!!! But dont be too alarm, the 4V Modulars love gearing!!! I need to cross the traps pass 7000RPMs and Im going with 2 set of tire: 26 Inch for me to bruise on you F-Bodies NA and 28in to bring on da Crack! Its ok, I talked a bit too much....but hey....I still have a few jacks under the slevee!!!!!!

Sweet!
Yes, very carefull brother! Got the following safety devices:
Wide Band Real Time O2
Digital Window Switch
NOS Mini-WOT Sensor
Fuel Pressure Cut-Off
Fuel is covered with 39LB Injectors and Dual Pumps, Nitrous will come on progresive so it will be nice and easy hit (within 2 seconds, ramping from 50%-up).
And very importantly, very conservative with the tune! Timing will be keep to a mininum. Plan on running a miserable 4 deg (base, stock its 10) with the 150-175 and target air fuel of 11.00-11.25 @ WOT.
Got all the software to tune. Finally invested in the SCT PRP (Pro-Racers Package) which will allow me 100% control over the tunes.
But again, need to dial up the Nitrous tunes! As a matter of fact, you wana come over to the dyno and help me tuining this thing? Your advice will be help full.
Naz

I had to put your old pistons and rods in my motor because they were begging to go 10s. No Firehawk is going to be the fastest in the 1/4 on this site. The Camaro is coming, and Da Hawk is going down.

Mine will probably be on a ADAC truck on the way back since it is a ticking time bomb with the rearend and tranny.

Ok I'll give you credit for leaving the hood on. That composite material is nice. Too bad they didn't do that for the LT1's. Sheet metal would be my next logical choice.
