Default 11.120 at 126.93 at 5800' above sea level

Hello everybody, we finally had a chance to run the Z with the new 3 speed installed. The time listed in the title is our best time. We ran consistent 11.1's throughout the day. This set-up should get us a 11 flat maybe high 10 run. However, we have decided to up the boost to 21 pounds and see what that does. The previous runs were at 16-16.8 pounds. We are hoping to run mid to high 10's at 130 plus mph. Keep in mind we run at a physical elevation of 1 mile above sea level and a DA typically around 8000 feet plus . I will have Eric post up some pics of the tranny installed in the car later today or early next week. Thanks, Jason

I believe they're using a GM TH350.

We are running a modified greddy kit. Turbos are about the same as twin 20g's. The tranny is a th350 with a 4200 stall and trans-brake. Stock block with upgraded internals and all the supporting mods. Once we get a little more seat time in the car our times should continue to improve. We will keep everybody up to date once we make a few runs on high boost. Thanks, Jason

Alberto, We will try to get some video in the next few weeks. The Z sounds very good ( 3 inch exhaust with very free flowing mufflers). Thanks again everybody, Jason

Those times are incredible imo with a Density altitude of 8000f (assuming a temp of 12-15 degrees Celcius)!!!!

Which track did you run out of?
