th350 is probably dead though. going to try to snake the glide away from 5.0 n it if he'll let me grab it from the guy

Congrats man , dang wish I could have been there to have seen it. it just keeps getting faster and faster

[sspstang]

That car moved out hard! Congrats man!

Sweet ride you got there, it has me seriously considering swapping my fist gen small block for an LS/turbo swap. Tired of the nitrous stuff/bottles/etc...

[Chas_svo]

Nice to meet you James, and yes, the car looks slow compared to the rail. What wouldn't?

Glad the trans got you home.

Congrats on the new best and it was nice to met you.

5 second club congrats!

not sure there is a way to really verify it, but i think this might have set the "stock lsx longblock" record, meaning as the general sold/built it (sans cam swap), looks like 5.95@117 is the fastest previous.

[grove rat]

badass!

I was watching when you went by. Your hood was flapping around like a mofo.

Congrats! 5.85 and you drove it home

That record usually is for the f-body guys. I know of another local mustang lsx car that went slightly quicker than your 5.85 with stock heads and shortblock.

I honestly didn't think your combo was capable of a 5.8x pass due to the power to weight ratio.

stock headgaskets/tty head bolts/rod bolts/etc?

not that it was probably intended, but i appreciate the compliment, you've been quick to kick my ass in all the other threads, nice to see something positive!
