I have a 1991 Chevy Blazer with like 31,000 miles on it. I have added a new radio with new speakers and a couple of subs to boot. The car costed me $0.00 which is a great price considering what shape the car is in (mileage wise the body is in perfect shape as well though)

Nice ET SVT! I'm mostly a GM guy but those new Lightnings and 03 Cobras kick ass!

I'm trying to decide what route to take to get it into the 11's.
Maybe a good aftermarket torque converter? That did the trick for me. I added a Yank 3500 stall, ET streets, crank pulley, & minor weight reduction and it dropped my ET from 12.71 @ 107 to 11.99 @ 112. Now I'm trying to decide between a TNT 100 shot, ATI procharger, or heads & cam to reach upper 10s. I'm leaning toward the spray because it would be the cheapest route.

I have a few buddies that are GM guys, but we really don't talk cars that much. (probably coulda guessed that)

That's a pretty big drop. I got my greatest gain with a chip. About .5 sec. The rods in the Lightnings are pretty week so my options are starting to run out without going into the engine. I need to check around on the converters. Last time I looked they were over $1K. Kenne Bell just starting selling a replacement blower that's good up to close to 20#.

I am seriously wanting a new '03 or '04 Cobra, but I'm trying to be patient. There is supposed to be a completely new Cobra coming out in '06 that could be 500+ hp. :banana:

I know one thing.. If the 05 Stang looks as good as this I might have to change sides (again)!

Yeah. The first few pics I saw didn't impress me much, but the more I look at these, the more I like the way they look.

Have you seen the new Lightning concept?

Yeah I've seen that. Pretty cool. I still think the current Lightnings (like yours) look better though.

I'm with you on that. I don't really like the new Lightning.

Thanks, N!ck.
