thanks for the info Kevin! congrats on building such a potent combo
interesting to see it has an auto. the 4L65E is a great tranny to build up. so many nice stroker combos we need a "modified registry" of all the ZR-1s with heavy mods and their times the old LSV will do 11.42 @ 129 the MPH indicates its putting down the power but the ET shows a distinct lack of traction hope to get it out in the nice fall weather, but might not make it. needs new rear bearings and a bushing or two. thinking hard about the banski stuff as it looks like it would free up the travel and improve ride and handling I briefly drove Bob G.s car in the pits at BG and was very impressed at how "docile yet fierce" that car drove with the dual disk clutch I need one! what does the RAM 9" setup run? I hope it will tame down the tranny gear ratte too. my car sounds more like a diesel truck than a ZR-1 and it gets on my nerves sometimes. I also think a bit heavier flywheel and clutch package would help the launch the fidanza is great for road racing but is horrible for drag racing and I don't care much for it. one for sale soon! |

Yes - the ZR1s should win the N/A class at those 1/2 mile events. I think Al or Bob would've gotten it done if their car/cars stayed healthy/made the event. I think the only reason I couldn't beat the C6 was the automatic falls flat on its face when shifting into OD right after the 1/4 mark. Not a problem for me in the 1/4, but the 1/2 is a different story. I hit the finish line in the 1/2 at around 5,600 rpm I think I recall - way below power peak. Bob & Al wouldn't have that problem.

Thanks Pete. It's good to have faces to attach to such a class act as FBI.
