I'm out don't have the car right now

 

HHHHmmmmmm should I test out the Nova

 

dude! let me know if you're going I'll go just to spectate lol

 

I want to but I think it's too soon in me and my novas relationship

oh and incase your wondering heres whats in it:
383 6.3 stroker block
Edlbrock lifters
4 barrel
with flame thrower distributer
400 muncie manuel trans. 4 speed
heavy duty rediator
10 big bolt rear end
two pump start up

 

but the Nova many more years of experience LOL

 

isnt a 10 bolt the same rear end that the 4th gen camaros had?

 

383 is weak thats wat i have in my ruck wait till u see will's engine we r working on.lol

 

How is that weak? The novas are relatively light for a classic muscle car. All u would ever need is a small block

 

what year nova?

 

Nevermind, just saw your sig. Take the nova to la invasion. I'm taking the nova cousin (Pontiac Ventura) out on Monday.

 

How did it go?

 

not good for me

first run i missed 2nd and ran a 15.6
second run ran a 14.5
3rd run ran a 14.6

i dont know whats wrong, i ran a 14.3 before, and i just added header and custom 3 inch exhaust, and transmission mounts
i dont think my exhaust has enough back pressure. i should be in the high 13s
and my last run it felt like something was slipping in second gear, maybe my clutch or maybe tire spin, im not sure

 

Mods other than exhaust & mounts?

I ran 14.3 there @ 99mph - 2.2 60' (3" pulley, JBP HDR, full 3" catless exhaust, intake & ported blower, and a terrible tune w/ a pcv issue)

Tough track

Stock LSJs run 14.5-14.8 @ fontana

 

i got air box mod and stage 2 with a custom tune and a 2.5in catless downpipe, i put down 255 on the dyno and with the header and 3 inch exhaust i should be more now

 

Woah stock run 14.5-14.8??
maybe thats wut motor trend magazine says but no way...

 

I ran 14.06 @ 104.16 w/ 2.286 60'. I had to let the throttle go on 2ng gear. Otherwise I probably would have had a high 13 on the board. The GMPP stage 3 PCM tune works very nice. I wasn't expecting that much mph.

Mods are air box mod with a spectre air filter, gms3 PCM + 76mm pulley & fidanza flywheel. My exhaust, manifold & DP are 100% stock.

 

i went to irwindale a couple weeks ago before my header and 3inch exhaust and ran an 8.9 in the 8th mile with a 2.0 60 foot, and yesterday my 8th mile times were 9.4 and 9.5 with 60 ft of 2.3, so i dont know whats going on

 

Maybe you need to retune? My car would usually does 9.1-9.2 at 80 - 81 mph at irwindale. My 1/8th at fontana was 9.1

 

I've been to Fontana 3 or 4 times. And thats what a stock lsj runs...

A box stock lsj w/ nothing but a retune can hit 14.2-14.5 @ fontana on 2.0-2.2 60'

A lot of the socal guys w/ TUNED/modded LNFs are running high 13s. I know of two with a local's tune who ran mid 13s.

Fontana isnt very forgiving... dunno what it is

------------

As for irwindale...

My 1/8th is always a tenth or slower at fontana, compared to a similar run @ Irwindale

 

maybe i need a tune for the new cat back and header i dont know, but i put a baffle in my exhaust earlier today to try and add some more back pressure and did a couple runs down the street real quick and it feels better, but i did one from a launch and shifted to second and nailed it and it felt like it was going no where, so i think either my clutch is starting to slip or i got bad heat soak or something im still confused

 

13.7 is probably the best I'll ever do lol

 

That's me. Fontana track prep blows. Get your launch down and you'll run better times. I'm hoping for low 13s the next time I go.

 

Wasnt going to name anyone... yanno

yeah... I'm looking foward to testing out my meth 2.6 setup

 

With the right launch, I think your can hit a low 13 and trap over 110.
