Supposed to snow here Tuesday, ah, it's all good. I need slicks, any donators?

What's up with Streetfire? I upload a vid and can't see it. They say they are "Optimizing". wtf?

And whoever said the LQ1 with open exhaust sounds like "ASS" ..... is just plain wrong...

I think it was Aaron.

....Thanks alot! I having was a good start to the week till you brought up that asshole!

[RednBlack]

My bad. I appologize.

He makes me laugh..

[mfewtrail]

Nice job. Looks like your 3400 is breathing pretty good up top with a 95mph trap and 20.7mph gain in the backhalf of the track. I need to get back to the track soon...

[OldSkoolGP]

I need to get out there soon now that OBD II is working. Have you had any head work done yet or are those still the stock heads?

[gpse3400]

Thanks guys Yeah these are stock heads. I'm thinking of doing somthing to them, not quite sure. Full roller rockers? steel or aluminum? porting? valves? Unfortunately for now it's either one or the other. One thing is certain, I have a traction problem and Drag radials are definately needed...The tires are lighting up through the better part of 1st gear....What a Whale!!

[1QUICKHATCH]

Sweet! those are some good #'s what all is done to your 3400 besides the higer comp, and the 3500 plenum and 7?+ mmTB?

do the head work you will see the best gains with doing the heads!

[gpse3400]

Crane Cam regrind. IN.524, EX.539, duration@.05 I230, E236. The lift is touch too high for un modified heads. The cam wasnt even the one I wanted. My mind was else where when I ordered it but still I decided to roll with it. Also using LS6 springs. All in all other than obtaining the engine, doing the things that I've done, I didn't spend alot at all. Its moslty a jumble of stock parts. 3 one off pieces that include the egr adaptor, TB adaptor and the reground Cam. And amazing enough it runs happy everyday. But a taller cam and I know i'll defintely need an auxillary vaccum tank. My cylinder heads were remanufactured....Not sure if they are 3400 heads or regular roller rocker 3100 heads. I'm sure they are 3100 heads. Yeah the TB is 70mm. Gives me that CRACK THAT WHIP response that I love.Then again it could be the manifold.. hell the other day I saw a G6 GT at the gas station and I think he gave it just a touch too much gas. Lit up that inside tire and scared himself a bit. Anyways I just got a new Cone filter in the mail... its like made of this mettallic micromesh, stainless steel, no oiling required....Normally the filter material is cotton...Anyone have experiance with these? Got some Pics for yah. Shots of the Whale on the heading west on the LIE I-495.

[RednBlack]

Hell of an RT! And I haven't been on the LIE in 20 years. Traffic lighten up? :P

[gpse3400]

LOL The more they make it bigger the more people use it! Lunch time its a breeze, 3:00 in the afternoon you wanna drive over everyone. Yeah that was my friend driving, he seemed to do well that time. I got videos, gotta up loady them. But when I sling the car down the track myself I usually react well. Once I got a perfect RT of 0.

[gpse3400]

Ok got two videos. One of the car getting the 14.9, and showing well against a Big Blue LT+ on take off. The next one was of a pretty bright red IROC tearing up I-80 West in New Jersey.
