I did this when it was N/A. Now that it's blown, Z06's are fair game too. When the built engine goes in, ZR1's won't be shit either.

Blown cars can still do that, to an extent, but it's still not the same. Much more of an "effort" to road trip a blown car.
Most of the blown 5.0s have spent WAY more time in a shop than on road trips, lol.

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one thinking that.

LOL! I resemble that comment! After seeing the times WBT and KDANNER are running, I might just put the KB up for sale and rejoin the N/A ranks.

In all fairness to HPP, mine ran nearly flawlessly from December to May of this year. What changed in the tune after that is anyones guess, but it changed dramatically. Wouldn't idle steady, had a miss running down the road at steady rpms, died at redlights. Hopefully, GH got all that mess worked out, will find out this week.

Do it! We did some shakedown passes with kdanner's car last night at Lonestar Motorsports Park in Sealy. Air was terrible but they did a good job with the track.

Best pass was:


First time the car has been to the strip in over a year. It should run mid 10's when the weather cools.

I've been watching that video for about an hour now. It's very tempting. I will not be swapping over to the 6R80 though. That 1-2 shift bugs me badly. Still leaning towards a 4R70, but looking at the 4R100 and even the GM stuff right now.
