The Chevelle is one of my all time favorites. That LS6 is a hot runner, it is even better if you bore it out to a 502. My favorite chevelle is probably the 69, but I like the turn signal covers and closed headlights of the 1970. Are you running the 396?

11s..nice! my car has turned in a best of mid 12s, but now that we did some work to get it running better, and now we cant get traction...the 60s are in the 17.8-1.85 range...about a tenth from before...time for slicks!

Is it N/A or do you have something pushing air?

Isn't it odd how fickle us car guys are? We get a nice base, build the hell out of it, have big dreams for it, and as it gets real good we get bored and get a new toy.

well, one of the problems with my older toy, is that PA is so tough on emissions...it runs cleaner than my truck, but because my truck has a cat, and my car doesnt, my car is illegal....[:@]
