An outside suspect for oil out of the bell on an LS is the oil pressure sender. Didn't you have problems with that area before?

Somehow I managed a 12.7 @ 118 anyway.

That's good enough for a title around here.

An impressive run despite your jitters. The car pulled really well after you got it in the right gear.

It ran 14.5 and was probably around 6500 - 6600 pounds at the time.

I loled.

The GMT400 is a great choice for tall people, and no one seems to want the Tahoes or 'Burbs anymore so you can get into a nice one for a great price.

What tire are you running on a 18x10 that blows off undrivably with 430 ft. lbs. of torque? I suspect that this is a tire problem and not a wheel dimension or drag radial issue.
