    New best, but not good enough.....

    One factor most people forget is if they are running slicks or skinnies! My buddies 01 GT with just a catback and full slick ran a 13.3 at 102!

    Spun Bearing, when does it "Knock"

    The modular engines are pretty noisy in stock form....at start up on older engines you will get some ticking/knock from the front chain tensioners due to wear over time but will stop or barely hear them when the engine is warm......if your engine ticks from start up and ticks match the rpm of...
