    I am not sure. I don't have any real need to take my car back to the strip because I think I got just about everything I can out of it as it sits now. However I would like to take my brothers C5 to the 1/4 and see if I can get it in the 12's and my father-in-law has a supercharged 80 firebird that will probably hit over 125mph in the 1/4. Next time we go I will definitely let you know. I want to see what that sucker traps!

    Wait so if I workout and add 30lbs of muscle on me am I really still me? Of course I am you silly goose! Clint is just improving his M and it feels good.

    That's what I was thinking when I saw the dyno sheet! Both hp and torque curves are nice and smooth with no signs of alarm.

    I have to slap a sc on my S52 one of these days...
