You guys using STD or SAE correction factors? That should (in theory) account for the heat in the room room among other things...
Ed Curtis at www.flowtechinduction.com does a lot of custom cams. He's got a spec sheet that you fill out to give him an idea of where to start, then you can shat with him to get it fine tuned...
All depends on the backspacing of the wheels. If you haven't seen it yet, there's a good sticky over on LS1tech that describes how to measure, what wheel widths, and what backspacing combos work...
Thanks for all of the replies. I tore into her today. It was as suspected - the coolant had started to break down. The heater core was TOTALLY clogged - I took the outlet tube off and it was bone...
Overflow tank looks fine and what I can see in the top tank looks OK. When I swapped the stat this winter the stuff that came out also looked OK.
Hopefully it's not too far gone and a good flush...
Good point of reference. I will try the coolant ASAP.
Yep - 2000 NHRA in the garage with only 17k on it. Really enjoy it. Looking to do a heads/cam swap this fall. Just had my WS6 wheels...
Mechanical fans - no resetting possible.

Almost bought a black one of these back in the day. Disgrace to the 1970 version, maybe. But, these were faster 0-60 than the Z28's were during the early 90's. And they didn't even need a coffee...
Almost bought one of these before deciding on the TBSS for the AWD. But 6 sp manual + rwd + my wife + snow = me paying a lot of body shop bills.
You should be able to get a nice one (~30,000 mi)...
The local engine builder that I would go to is swamped with pre-season stock car engines, and I don't want to wait.
Looking for a shop that can flow my heads and intake together so I can customer...
