Meaty69Maro Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Hello all, I've been gone for a while but finally back with some new pics and track times. Pretty much built the whole car based on info I got from this forum and couldnt be any happier with the performance to mod ratio. Mods: 2002 LS1. Cam-only. Stock bottom end, stock heads. 100-shot (nozzle). The rear-end is still the stock open diff, with the exception of an upgraded CV axle kit. Although I did do a 1.46 60ft on the stock u-joint half shafts, I felt the CV's would be more reliable. Time slip: 60ft: 1.453 1/8 mi: 6.326 @ 110.02mph 1/4 mi: 9.944 @ 134.63mph Hit the N20 about 20ft out, 4th pass of the day so next time i'll increase the bottle pressure and hope to not break an axle . How I got the car a few years ago Recent Pic Video of pass, starts at the :50 mark: Any comments questions and concerns are welcome. Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckrell Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 What rear tires are you running? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zero Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Wow, that seems awfully quick for a stockish LS with a 100 shot. Congrats! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RebekahsZ Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 I'm gonna be picking your brain! Mind if I bother you with some PMs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meaty69Maro Posted February 5, 2013 Author Share Posted February 5, 2013 Zero: Yea I was really expecting it to be closer to a 10.30 car on the spray but it's 60 footing alot quicker than my original calculations. And I think the 100 shot on these cars is equivilent to a 150 shot on an average weight car like an F-Body. RebekahsZ: I don't mind the brain picking, go ahead and shoot the PMs. I did alot of picking when building this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RebekahsZ Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Turbo 350? What cam kit? What did it do before spraying it? No LSD? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meaty69Maro Posted February 5, 2013 Author Share Posted February 5, 2013 Turbo 350? What cam kit? What did it do before spraying it? No LSD? Just sent you a PM but left-out what the car did before spraying it. She ran 10.8 @ 122mph all motor, 1.52-60ft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RebekahsZ Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Got your PM. That TH350 makes it sound like you did the whole race in one gear-I can't even hear the shifts. Pretty sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dans toy Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Amazing! Do you Know what the car weighs with you in it ? Stall converter ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RebekahsZ Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 I think lots of us would love to hear a run-down of your build and racing experience with the car. Can you start from the beginning and take us thru from junker to strip monster? Tell us what your times were from stock, to next motor mods, to spray (or what ever order you made mods). Hope it isn't all "secret" stuff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B. Whisky Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 ^+1. Not that I'm into drag racing much, nonetheless I'd like to pick this build apart. What a run! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zfan1 Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Very nice set up. I am in the progress of building a L76/LS2 with LS3 top end for my 240Z. I have run a 385 sbc in it for yrs with a 700r4 tranny and 9.5" 3600 stall. It runs consistent 9.70's. Not sure of what transmission to use but leaning towards a 4L80E for now.

Mikey303LSZ Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Meaty... I would love to have a run down on your car if you are willing to share. Cam, trans, converter, gears, weight and any other mods. Thanks! Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wfritts911 Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Nice car! And that thing gets down off the line! Did you cut the fenders for the flares pretty high and towards the front to fit the 28 inch tire? I thought a 26 inch slick was really close to hitting the front of the fender well on these cars. -Will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
78 LS2 Z Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 You just have to love the insane power to weight ratio these cars enjoy when modded.........That is really quick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texis30O Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 I was told last week that you were eating axles left and right........ I guess you got the car back together. Very interesting..... very interesting...... what did you do for the axle set up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zfan1 Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 If you are making that kind of power and running 9's you should be running 300ZXT Turbo CV axles and custom stub axles. The stock stub axles wether they be 240 or 280 stubs will snap like twigs. Just my opinion and experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
