How many of you would have been driving on the 210 headed East going through pasadena on that day at that time? I only saw one red FD lol. Hahaha

Yeah that would have been me. I am very impressed with your car man, those are on my list of cars to own. I love spinning dorritos of doom.

Sounds like your car is running well Armen. A headers/cammed LS1 is a pretty quick setup, and your basically bolt on car seems to have given it a good run.

Hey Gene! Looks like you have skilfully managed to avoid damaging that front lip. Car looks great BTW.

If I put that much weight in my car with the power it has it would probably feel like a miata. Have any timeslips on your car, 1/4 or 1/8? I know armen's been to the track, I think he ran high 12 sec @ 110 mph range over a year ago at Fontana. Love me the cammed ls motors... I have one myself, waiting to go in my car

That's pretty damn quick. Cam only? Wow. How much does the car weigh? Ever dyno'd that thing?

Well cam only 3800 stall converter 3:42 gears, built Auto. I had it tuned at a shop out in lake Elsinore called CMS, the guy is probably the best LSx tuner around. On his dyno I put down 377, but his reads about 15 hp low, so he said I am actually in the 390's. I have a set of heads in my room waiting for me to get money so I can get them CnC'd and larger valves. After that with the stock intake manifold I should be around 420 to the tire, give or take 5-10 hp either direction.

Sweet man, motor sounds real healthy. Good info on CMS, I may have to talk to you more about them when I'm ready for a tune. Did you make the pulls with stock exhaust manifolds and exhaust? What are the specs on the cam?
