New times, hello 12sec club
Well just got home a few hours ago from Drag Warz held locally in Bradenton, FL. After my much anticipated valve body upgrade, I managed to make a couple 12 sec passes. I was on 100 octane with 5degrees timing retard at 9psi. Also I was icing my plenum and compressor after every run. The plenum actually had condensation on the top of it before I ran. I unfortunately broke out in bracket racing with a 12 sec pass. Videos are uploading now...

My times before the valve body were averaging 13.2, with a best of 13.07. My times before would go up after every run I believe due to the heat of the tranny. Cost was 700 for the vb and $150 for labor and parts, tranny lube was $80 alone.

4> 1/8 mi = 8.050s @ 97.78mph

Did you also have to pay the $150 shipping/insurance fees that Stillen charges? I am very interested in this mod as well. Is it worth the price tag? I guess .1 sec in the 1/4 is worth it? Do you have a torque converter? (I can't remember)

The valve body is a good mod especially for FI. I had problems with the car clamping the gears on partial throttle shifts. That's gone. The gear changes with more force but still cannot chirp gears. Stillen did the valve body. The 1-2 shift is hard, even at low speeds, not a fan of this. Same with 2-1 shifts.
My times before the valve body were averaging 13.2, with a best of 13.07. My times before would go up after every run I believe due to the heat of the tranny. Cost was 700 for the vb and $150 for labor and parts, tranny lube was $80 alone.
