I really hope that you are kidding. A friend of mine just went 12.5 on his 10 bolt. He will be in the 11's on Nitrous.

So why is the LS1 Rearend only good for 13's?

Jesus lol, it was a joke. The stock 10 bolt is hit or miss, some are in the 10's while there are some that go in the high 12's. Its really a matter of tire choice, if your going to run slicks on a stock 10 bolt it is but a matter of time.

seeing that you have a 6 spd lt1, i think heads + cam + 410 gears will get you a 12, probably a low 12 if you could hook. i cut consistent low 1.8x 60' on my factory rear with 410s in a 94 lt1. no cover or anything, i was on DRs dumping the clutch from ~2,500. i'd do the heads/cam + a decent tire and see where that takes you. i think the bottleneck with those motors is in the heads, so choose a nice set of heads, then opt for a large (is there any other) custom ground cam to match.

you could probably click off some high 12s with a cam and good tire.

I was thinking of


3:73's
315 street tires
Spec 3 Clutch
Full valve train with 1.6 RR's
100 shot from a wet MAF NX kit or a Plate kit
PCMforless Tune
And possibly replacing my BBK's, ORY, and FM cat back with LT's, ORY, and a Borla.

Think that would get me there? I don't wanna cam it yet, but when I do, I have question, Is 110LSA too wild for the street on a m6? I daily drive my car, but would LOVE that huge cam sound...

Boltons should get you there. Nothing to big from your wallet.

See my sig. I don't even have LT's either. If I could get the effin thing to hook on these ****-*** 245s and stiff auto-x shocks I'd see 12's all day.

BTW, Speed Density, you sure your car is running right? I trapped at 99.55mph when I ran a 14.09 in Denver 2 weeks ago. (5300ft above sea level, FYI)
