I was going to step up to 100 in 25 Shot increments. However now that I have everything inbound (Upgraded Fuel pump, MSD Ignition and Retard box, Hobbs switch) I'm skipping the 25, 50 and 75 Shot and going directly to 100

Yes

No you didnt' hurt my feelings. You can't possibly hurt my feelings. Yea I am so glad you didnt' name names cause its not like noone knew who you were talking about because you were being so discreet about it But I guess you are right. It is possible to run mid 14's on a stock 4.9 and auto tranny as Linenoise is now proving with his 14.6 but I am glad you got a chuckle out of it. Laughter is the best medicine and I think you could use quite a bit to be honest.

Also you are barking up the wrong tree. Why dont' you ask Linenoise why he is using slicks with his 4.9 swap? he is the one that ran a 14.8 with the use of the slicks. I think you will be able to find your answer with him, not me. Boohya. You just got pwn3d!!!

Shake your head all you want just dont' break your neck. Yup thats right. I did 200 hp on a "tired" 2.8. I would think thats such a nice feat on a "tired" 2.8 don't you? And its kind of funny. That "tired" 2.8 was hella faster then many of the 4.9 swaps here. Thats impressive I would think for a "tired" old 2.8 Lets see a 14.1 at 91 mph with an auto tranny. With a 8.8 1/8th mile at 76 mph? Lets see here. That "tired" old 2.8 is still .5 faster then the fastest 4.9 here that has posted times and still even faster mph wise too!! Not bad for just a "tired" 2.8

I might have bought my car with a "tired" 2.8 but at least I didn't swap out one tired engine for another tired engine.

quote So 14s is good but there's alot more to build on with bolt ons alone and im not talking about using nitrous on a tired 4.9

Show me 4 bolt ons made by aftermarket companies for the 4.9 without including nitrous because you know, nitrous doesn't count.

And if your refering to me buying a tired 4.9 then you may be right if you count a engine that had only 50k miles from a wrecked caddy at purchase.

And I thought a 2.8 on a 100shot Will run a bit more then 200hps? I guess since it's tired then you lose the 40hps.... Huh?

And it goes to show you how ignorant you are. I never said my 2.8 was tired. Others did. Unless of course you consider a 20k mile 2.8 tired. But if that makes my engine tired what does that make your 50k mile 4.9?

I see you live in Florida. I know someone with a tired 2.8 that has no problem meeting you for a freindly race. his tired 2.8 vs your not tired 4.9 swap.

PM with what general area you live in and maybe something can be setup.

Lets see if you are willing to back up any of that big 4.9 talk you spew.

I ran a 70 shot. So I guess technically I had in the area of 210 hp or so. but thats not important.

Meet halfway inbetween.

My buddies car.

88 Formula 5 spd.
80k mile stock "tired" 2.8 This one is pretty tired actually so you might have a chance.

I can only assume you run an auto tranny. Is this correct?

Also since you live in Orlando I am sure there is a drastrip right there. What did you run?

I am willing to step up to the challenge......... Dis is going to be sooooooo fun

Also since you live in Orlando I am sure there is a drastrip right there. What did you run?

Edit:

you have yet to mention 4 bolts on made by aftermarket companies other then nitrous.

I also think its funny you said you were done with this thread long ago. HAHAHA
