    Back when I was into LS motors and had my TT GTO, there was a guy that made 1089 at the wheels with 22psi and a built TT 364. I think it was running pump gas with a big shot of meth and ported 317 heads.

    I made 690 with a TT403 on 8 psi. The motor was originally setup for NOS, so it needed a better cam for FI and studs for more boost but I was tired of the chassis issues with the GTO and moved on.

    A lot of different options with these motors.

    Yeah, I have none of that but what I noticed with LS engines is theres a bajillion ways to set them up. Its like that giant leggo box. Seems there are more cams for LSs than wheels for Mustang.

    There's one out here that has a 43x, big heads, big cam, and a big procharger, that makes 1152 on corn.

    Take it to the track and see what it traps. Watch out for the wall! [emoji23]

    I had a friend that got kicked off the track in Ennis with a 08 GT500 because of no cage and in the 8 second range. Full interior, street driven monster, with a nice stereo. It would also run over 200 on the highway. He finally blew it up after three years of abuse or so. I did laugh when he took it for warranty work a couple of times. I think it had a swapped SC, smaller pulley,frame work, full exhaust and maybe head work. I thought he dynoed around 900 or so, been around ten years so I can't remember exact numbers.

    Sorry to hear you had some problems getting it tuned but better safe than sorry. I only went on Saturday and it was great weather with cars heading into a little bit of a headwind. Saw one turbo 'Vette go off track but fortunately plenty of run off room and no damage; it was able to drive off and finish a run down the track. Didn't go Sunday and glad I didn't buy a ticket for it as it was raining on and off.

    What do you think it will run at the strip?

    I made 2 passes in my z recently. 10.12 at 137 and 9.98 at 138 with 19" Nittos. Mine is a 16 A8 though.
    You should easily trap 150s in that beast. [emoji15]
    Better get a cage.

    Wasnt able to make it. Car was completed at 2 AM but had a couple issues that made me not wish to run. I am happy though, its kinda quickish.
