That's a great time. Do you have any weight removed or is your car basically full weight?

Thanks Mike, I don't like that clutch either. I did do some weight reduction, spare tire jack, no a/c, rear seat delete, and it has light weight carpet. I am thinking about getting rid of the front sway bar, and maybe do drag wheels. Then maybe a 10.80-90

Those are the only mods? Surely your spraying or it's boosted?

All motor on 93 octane, Tj at Baker engineering tune's the car. It does have a chris1313 ramair kit on it, and the head's have been milled so it's 11.1 to 1 compression.

Something is still off... That mph is very hard for me to believe unless you have some massive weight reduction.. Actually the et and mph seem way to good especially the et with only a 1.74 60ft. I pulled a 1.59 with my built 408 camaro and only did 11.2@121. Not saying there isn't a lot more left in my setup, but I pull regular H/C ls1 cars HARD around here. Have some q's if you don't mind..

1. Whats your complete mod list?
2. What is your race weight?
3. What's the d/a on the runs?

1. Stock ls1 bottom end out of 2000 Camaro, prc 2.5 5.3 head's, torque 2 cam, home ported fast 102, 36 pound injector's, 92mm throttle body, speed engineering 1 3/4 header's texas speed true dual's, home made ford 8.8 with 4.10 gear's moser 31 spline axle's, and a ford racing diff, chris1313 ram air ls7 clutch mgw shifter. That is all I can think of.
2. I don't know the race weight, i'm sure it's about 150 pound's lighter than stock.
3. I don't know what the d/a was for sure, I was told it was around + 1000. The run was made at 2:16 pm on oct 9th, if anyone who knows how to look that up.

Looks doable to me. I have trapped 124 with worse heads and DA.

Idk if clocks are different were you guys are running or what, but I've seen A LOT of h/c f-body's run down the 1/4 over here and never seen one trap 126. Or even close. I am about 2000 ft higher and was tapping rev limiter, but the at the same d/a and with my ram air I would probably be right in the 126 range with a 408 and a huge cam, triple disc stall, weld rts setup, no a/c ect... And I get my car tuned by the best tuner in the area. I put like 10 cars on my full bolt-on c6 so I wonder if the clocks suck over here or what.... 126 is very hard for me to believe especially with that mild of a h/c...

That's bookin' for sure! But just to put a little perspective on it, the Chris1313 ram air no A/C version is reportedly worth ~3mph alone. I would assume DA was a little better than that too, considering the air we've had around IN/MI these past couple weeks has been great to say the least. Good job OP. Work on that 60', put some LCAs on there, and get that 10 sec slip!

Yea I have an even bigger mega mouth on my 408, but took it off when I put my tranny cooler on. I'm sure it would be worth a few tenths and mph, but 126 with that h/c is still very hard for me to believe.. Hell I hope my turbo car on 8lbs of boost with turbo cam traps that

Ive tried a bunch of different ram air/intake tubes on my car and every time I've improved that it picks up noticeably.

Getting back to the track timing systems. We have a track around here that everybody gets their best 60ft times at. Think they have the beam at 59ft lol

Default 5.3 heads

What are the specs on your heads? Like what cc are you running on them? Also how thick of a head gasket?

Doesnt seen off to me, if he optimized his setup it would go even better...Stock suspension.

My 99 Hugger Z with an LS6 crate, most boltons, suspension, weight reduction (3270rw) and a MWC fab 9 went 10.84 @ 125 1.49 60'
