Just giving you some well-earned grief.

Its the angle. The car is flawless in person. And I'm super picky.

Neither, I posted a picture of it. It's a 69 Camaro COPO clone with a 427 BBC and a 4 speed. 12 bolt, 4.10 gears, 11.1 with a solid roller cam from the factory. It's a bare bones car that GM built to compete in Super Stock. They only built 69 of them, they went 11.60's at 120 on 14" Poly Glass tires and 10.20's with slicks and open exhaust. Right off the show room floor in 1969.

So when are you taking yours to the track?

I doubt it, have you ever known me to have a slow car? Much less a slow truck?

I don't want to, it's only showing 177 miles on the odometer since its restoration in '08.

Dont the L92 head need to be ran on a 4" + bore? I know the 5.3 bore aint 4 inches

[OrangeChevyII]

I'm a Mexico racer Dville, I don't want to do anything to hurt the value. It's too nice of a car. It's by far nicer than any car I've ever owned.

Dropping the compression is as queer as Elton John.



But seriously, why drop the compression? Wouldn't it run slower on the same psi? There are many other ls engines on tech that are many forged 10+:1 motors running on high teens of boost.

buys room on pump gas. some folks actually see more power with less (or the same) psi via the ability to be more aggressive with timing. 10:1, pump gas and 17+psi is hard to prevent detonation. 9:1 opens the window a little.
