Agreed. Personally I think most people will port their engine rather than do a ton of weight reduction like you (GLHS) did. Not that there is anything wrong with that, just that most will not go that far. Porting is the most viable option for the majority of people. I am doing slight weight reduction (no A/C, P/S, aluminum hood, remove sound deadening, etc..) but nothing to the extent that you have.

 

ive only done a few wieght reduction mods, i need to do some more this port is barely bigger than stock, I did it when I had the auto tranny in there so I wasnt concerned about speed that much then.

here are all my slips from last friday. I havent scanned them in but this is what they say

i like that one 90 mph trap

Hey PowerOverFC;

When's the next time you're goin gout to OIR? We need to make it an event.

Also, I have the sheild for your speedo in the backseat of my car, shoot me a PM for when I can drop it off.

 

No, what you really need is an LSD. That open diff is what's spinning your wheel (notice the lack of 's')

 

man guys, work on those 60 ft times.

 

ya, lsd is next
