so I went to the track 02/21/09 with the following mods..

stock 01 camaro
ls6 cam (dont know the year)
ported maf ends
stock manifolds/ gutted cats with cutout
9 inch rear with 4:30's
no front sway bar
random technology tranny mounted torque arm
random tech lower control arms

everything else is completely stock the car went

1.771 60ft
89.613 mph
7.764 1/8th
12.090 1/4
110.299 mph

fast forward to this past weekend after getting the car back from being in the paint shop for months I installed a

mcleoud twin disc clutch
arh 1 7/8th headers with ory
custom magnaflow catback I made
z06 maf/ftp 85 lid
comp enginering drag shocks set at 50/50

1.758 60ft
91.548 mph
7.801 1/8th
12.072 1/4
118.859 mph


Anyone seem to have any ideas what I can do to break 11's? could it have been the difference in wheather?

Im also thinking the car might need a taller tire.. 315/35/17 hoosier drag radial is what im running right now. also does my trap seem high for a ls6 cam bolt on camaro?

Ummmm I'm not sure if its a typo or not but, your 1/8th mile was a 10.0 on both runs?? That doesn't sound right, maybe its your 1000ft time. As for your car has it been tuned? And did you re-tune after the mods you did. I ask this because if your car was tuned with the ported maf, then you swapped in the larger z06 maf, that table may need to be adjusted. Just my thoughts.

yeah that 1/8 is right that's why I am so puzzled on the cars time slips... as far as being retuned yes it was I work at a shop so the car is on the dyno alot.. it made 379/372 with headers and cutout, then maf/lid with my exhaust made 392/379 torque

Something is wrong you shouldnt be running a 10 in the 1/8th trapping 91mph. Are you getting traction off the line?

What gears are you running?? I mean to be honest I would think that you would be solid in the 11s with that mph. Only thing I could say is get you suspension components, lca and maybe relocation brackets and see if you could lower the 60ft some more. Your right there and your car is picking up 27 almost 28mph on the back half! Just saw you had drag shocks, what are they set for?
