So what are everyone's thoughts on.......

Chad,

An '07 without the blower. If NHRA reduces the blown version to 425 hp, I'll have one that day.

Are you heading to Orlando?

That's quite an impressive feat to accomplish. Stock has gotten so modified today, far away from the original cars. Last yr. I toyed with trying to run an index in IHRA's Pure Stock category with my totally stock 97 camaro. It has 119,000 miles (highway) on it and has been sitting in a garage for the most part the last few yrs. I had my friend Kenny rebuild the tranny, quick shift kit and all, and bumped the stall a bit in the convertor. Stall wasn't much b/c I wanted it street drivable.I added M/T street radial slicks, tuned the computer a bit and that was it. All else was/is original from GM. It ran 13.60's on a 13.10 index shifting on it's own. I understand it could use gears (has 323's now) and a performance exhaust system with headers, but I don/t know if those two things would get the car below that index. So, my opinion, an amazing accomplishment with a street car in today's stock eliminator category.
