    I thought they looked amazingly small, I was a little worried that all of the engines umph went through those.

    Larry, I hope not, that however, would be my luck on this.

      Glad to see it was an easy fix. Now get it back, get some drag radials on her and see what she can do!

        Haha, no thanks I like my 10bolt. I do plan to go back to the track this weekend up north (stanton), hoping to break my current best 13.8

The v8 converter bolts are more than twice as long as the v6 ones. The shop is finishing it up now and my dad is heading over there with the trailer to pick it up at lunch.

              They don't know what the hell is going on. GM only uses 2 typical bolts , the ones i gave you and the LS (big head style) . The LS style is 1 thread longer than the bolts i gave you. I'm not trying to sound to pissy, just calling bs on 'ol phill's.

                That has to be about 800 shot of N2O to 100 hp of motor. I think you could take him with the 5.3.

                I'll give you a call tomorrow.

                        My buddy went well into the 11.40 range on drag radials with low 1.6 60' times on a stock 10 bolt. Automatics don't break rearends anywhere near as much as an M6 car does. Ask me how I know, lol.
