Just can't get seem to get that extra tenth. There's some kind of invisible wall I run into at the 11.99 mark. I'm sure there's at least 50 hp in my heads with a decent port job so maybe I'll pull them this winter and get it done. They're out of the box GM Performance aluminum oval ports. I want to be solidly in the 11's. Weight reduction isn't an option so I need more power!  |
Keith,your car's ET'ing pretty well for that MPH. What were your 60fts?
That El Camino is just amazing to me. It just does so many things well. Hats off to you as its builder.
