I had to get away from everyone so I went to the dragstrip and instead of just watching, I decided to do a run with the ol' SS. She ran pretty good I think I got a 14.24@95.66. The weight really kills these trucks coming off the line but the top end power is great. I wish there was a road coarse in SW missouri to run at and test out the suspension setup. heh since I am stuck with the truck for a while I decided to do a few cheap mods and liven the LS2 up a bit. 2 pay check got me some headers and exhaust and I think thats all she needs, and all i wanna do to it until Ken Belle makes a kit for the 6.0.
