9's at 140+ through stock LS1 TB/2.73 rear 10bolt :) EDIT: Got into the 9's this weekend. See last posts
I thought i'd share this here since i'm running some 4th gen parts on my 3rd gen. Shows you can go pretty quick on stock stuff.
Ran my twin turbo 401 small block 89 Iroc-Z today on 12, 13, and 14 psi boost.
Motor uses a victor EFI manifold with intakeelbows.com 90 degree elbow and stock LS1 throttle body. Nothing else really special, strong bottom end, Dart SHP block, AFR 195 heads, Mike Jones custom cam, etc
Rear end is a bone stock 10 bolt from some 99+ car with zexel torsen diff 2.73 gears. No girdle or anything. Previous 10 bolt finally broke a spider/worm gear tooth and it was making some noise and slipping on gears, chewing up other teeth alittle so I dumped it. Needed a quick spare for racing today so i put in the other 10 bolt late last night.
Car should go 9's with abit more tuning and harder launch. 93 octane gas no meth, etc.

my track was flooded with stangs and usually is... some 4th gen fbods but mostly stangs. They wanted to play 
To bad i didnt get to line up with some of the other ones there, one was doing high 10's and another looked very fast but didnt see him run. That cobra was no slouch tho, 11.0's at 128

"Holy Smokes!" You sure weren't kidding around on the other thread (Torsen Rear).

Very nice times! There is nothing wrong with leaving the line a little soft, especially when you drove the car to the track. 10.0 is an awsome feat on the stock 10 bolt imo... sick setup you have there, congrats!!

Just went 9.97, 9.93, 9.86 all at 139-141 at my home town track saturday. PRP
Then went to MIR sunday and went 9.86, and 9.73 at 142 mph. Last run i mixed in some race gas, cranked the boost up to what I was hoping to see 17-18psi and went 1.49 60 foot but blew a vacuum line off the intake on 1-2 shift and power dropped out. Says i hit 16.6psi on the log but car didnt run like it i guess. Still ran 9.73 but it wasnt liking the street tune with the 110/93 octane mix. Car was richer and just didnt feel as strong as I expected it would be but that leak must have caused that. Would have been a 9.5 pass i think at near 145 mph I bet

It looks better in person, i need to get better pics. Here's when it was just about 99% done
Just 9 to 1 compression and 14 psi so far. Should handle 16 on pump gas no problems but havent taken it that far yet
