• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

Cable mod for the rear?

Been awhile since I've seen that done.

I know for alot of the Bonnies they did some conversion/switch setup that ran the rear air shocks at full capacity so they were stolid and raised the back for track use. Unsprung/sprung weight transfer - body roll type stuff.

Been a while since I read anything about it, I could be way off and overly exaggerating the situation too :th_shrugshoulders:


Oh, fantastic runs. :th_thumb-up: :th_thumb-up:

exactly correct. The Bonnevilles have factory rear shocks with an onboard compressor. you can trick the sensor to go to full ride height (and I also add spring blockers) to get the rear up in the air.

Um 12.60's is still slow as balls.

Congrats on the pass, excellent results! Now throw some nitrous on there and let's see some 11's!
 
Thats not slow considering his mods..show me gp's with stock heads and cam no nitrous running those times

You obviously have no clue what a fast car is. Not to mention you don't get on clubgp or 3800 pro very often if at all.

I guess one could argue that it's quick for a H-body. But a car in general, not even close.
 
I'm not on either of those sites, which is irrelevant.
I'm not saying "a car in general" I'm saying that's a quick 3800 for what mods it has..that's all.

Mine stock heads, stock cams, stock engine, stock transmission
No nitrous
2.6 pulley, methanol injection, AV gas and my own HP tuners tune.
TD 3" stainless exhaust. To be fair it ran 13.0 @ 107 mph with the exhaust and 12.97 with no exhaust.
That's on Winter tires (not slicks)

12.9 @ 107mph.

I did a 1.91 60 foot with winter tires. With slicks I believe it would run WAY quicker.

 


Meth and av gas help a ton. And being 300 pounds lighter.
Don't get me wrong, that still a awesome time with said mods

But the Thread Starter is running C14 with lots more mods.
I honestly think my times are due to the way I launch the thing (smooth very little spin)
And the tuning is also spot on it pulls very hard all the way through. My 107 is also deceptive because I have the long gear ratio and the trans shifts right before the finish line throwing off the MPH a little.

I let my friend drive and he ran low 14s at first, and eventually ran a best of 13.6.
I took it back and ran 13.0 again right away. These torque beast when coupled with crappy tires aren't easy to drive.
