Re: Ran a '02 WS6 tonight

in 1992 ran 13.76@101 mph with underdrive pulley, cat back exhaust, airfoil and slicks.
low 1.8x 60'. doesn't take alot of mods to make an l98 respectable.

Re: Underperforming 383

my guess is still the exhaust....joeblue picked up .048 with his exhaust uncapped. that's approx. 45 to 50 ponies which would put easily at 380+.

Re: Underperforming 383

I have dual cutouts on my exhaust with nowhere close to the goodies you have.
gain 3 tenths and 3mph with them open. exhaust is 3 inch flowmaster with no cats.
my guess it's the exhaust.
