Yes like I said w/o it was sluggish. In the 16'*....16.7 I believe.

I wouldn't go so far to say it was "stock" except for nitrous. I took special care to make sure the ignition was prepped with the coils and what not. Plus the AFC makes a BIG diff if you tune it right.

I don't recommend anyone just throws nitrous on a Bonnie they just found without modifications for preparation.

RIght i mean Internals were stock and all other stuff, I checked out your Cardomain and see that you were chipped.

I see that you had the IGN was stepped up, and the AFC on there

Yes stock internals.

Get in touch with me personally via PM if you want to learn the specific results of the 94.

...My stock ser 2 L67 has 262hp...
How did you manage 262 hp and 340 ft lbs of torque from a stock series II motor?

Yes. . . . . . It wouldn't be hard to get a Series 1 N/A Bonne in the mid 15'* and with some big weight reductions and a good launch get it into low 15'*. Any faster is going to need a poweradder or a cam.

94/5 L67 were larger, but you would have to tear up the composite intake and that'* a PITA.

I ran a 15.9x with bald *** tires..... New plug wires, PCV, and better (not new though) tires up front i would expect a lil better. My tires held me back on my 60'*.

Series I can be just as powerful as anything else, but you need performance oriented heads, cam, and a new intake manifold wouldn't hurt either. All of our stuff is to make some good lower RPM torque numbers, and be reliable.
