sold it...actually too nice of a car and wanted something more track worthy. I loved the 65 but always some $3k issue like coil packs, suspension issue, etc. Camaro has been great and it loves the track. I have had a lot of fun with it so far. See you at the track!

Nice!

I went the lower pulley route because I thought there might me some belt slip issues going with the smaller upper. So I had a 9.55" crank, KPE CAI, Kooks HFC headers, wait4me aux HE, 180 T-stat, colder plugs and wait4me ECM/TCM tune. I never did a run at the track with all those mods (with an 8.6" lower it ran 11.7 @ 122+), I did do a 7.71s 60-130mph time with all the mods.

Are you also running drag radials?

I did cut outs in the floorboards and was kicking it Fred Flintstone-style!

My Sentra Spec-V will be there in full force!

So you are not running your car or SUV... and just here to run your mouth?

You should really consider doing an 8.6 lower with this list. Since you're doing the cam it makes sense to do a lower. Saves on labor cost.

I have the following planned fpr my V.

Stage 1
2.5 upper w/idler
Solid isolator
Airaid(installed)
Fluidyne HE
Plugs
Thermostat

Stage 2
8.6 lower
Injectors(ID850)
ZR1 cam
