Any of you guys TB SS fans? Check out my friends fastest documented TB SS (pics and vid)
A good friend of mine has just finished another phase on his TB SS. His previous setup consisted of 402 stroker, stall, gears, built 4L65, and a 150 shot. It made 692rwhp with this setup, and its maiden track voyage produced two 6.9X's at 100mph. He started spraying close to 100ft, and obviously traction was a major issue. The 1.69 short times weren't helping, and that was all motor. With some minor changes to attempt to help traction, he ran it again in the on the 1/4 mile where it ran 11.01 @ 128mph.
He just added a direct port setup, changed the camshaft, and added headers. He just got it tuned and made 800rwhp/680rwtq, on a 250hp shot. Also added are a custom set of Bogart D10 wheels...........17x5 up front, and 17x10's in the rear. Some 390/40-17 M&H DR's out back fixed the traction problem. He ran this new setup in Memphis a few weeks ago at the LSX Shootout, where he posted his best time so far before getting kicked off the track...........10.63 @ 129mph!! Direct port...... http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u...hotos/RPM1.jpg http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/DSC06102.jpg Custom Bogart's.... http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/DSC06117.jpg http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/DSC06115.jpg http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/DSC06112.jpg Here are some pictures I took of it with its street wheel setup.... http://www.hpjvids.com/mods/rpm/allsmall/IMG_1826.jpg http://www.hpjvids.com/mods/rpm/allsmall/IMG_1831.jpg http://www.hpjvids.com/mods/rpm/allsmall/IMG_1833.jpg Stay tuned in the next few weeks for some hopeful mid 10 second passes. His goal is to tote the front wheels. :D FWIW all work was done by www.ryansperformance.com (delete the link if necessary mods, not sure if it violates the rules......definately not trying to get a free plug) |

They look nice but I dont like the looks of the one above with the drag slicks on it, just looks weird in my opinion. I am sure they are awesome to drive. I would be happy with just the 5.3L V8 TrailBlazer, then I of course could add some stuff on later on.
