Very nice... Stall really wakes up the gt! SS has plenty of potential, for sure.

I agree Pete.. sounds like the stall made a hell of a difference.


James,

What else you have lined up for the SS? I know after market parts are scarce still for the SS.

Yes it did, Typically he ran a 1.9x-2.0x 60' N/A and a best of 1.79 60' Spraying N2o in first gear.

With the Stall, we eliminated the N2o for 1st gear and with the stall and a Stock Cam he managed a 1.77 60' N/A

This winter, or before if $$ allows. Front Runners for sure. Jesse also gain .2 better times after buying my front runners before the stall. Went from a best of 11.92 & 11.95 down to a 11.75 & 11.77 from the front runners alone.

So I will be doing those first, since Drag racing with a 62lb 20" Front wheel makes no sense for speed.

American Racing Long tubes, 3" Catted Mid Section and haven't figured out the Axle Backs yet.

After seeing the results with the higher stall, a 3,400 stall for me as well along with a Cam. I will get with the guys at Livernois to help decide which Cam I go with.

That was a good run. Didn't realize how much difference the front runners made. Definitely worth it
