Any faster ls1s outside of ls1tech 1/4 list? I'm curious to know if there are other ls1s out there that are as fast as the ones on the board that do not post? I see alot of non internet posting guys at the track but very few are contenders for the 1/4 mile list we have (bolt ons,cam only,heads/cam,stroker NA and power adders). Are there others that you know of that can take the top 5 of any divisons we have?

Re: Any faster ls1s outside of ls1tech 1/4 list? I'm sure there are alot of street racers who will not make their ETs available to anyone w/a computer.

Ditto! What Xfiveliter said. There are a few cars here in Houston, as well as across the country that could be at the top of the list, but they race for a nice amount of sea shells. Plus some people, even here on Ls1tech.com think many of those list are stupid. But the main reason is like the person above said..... Street racing.

Re: Any faster ls1s outside of ls1tech 1/4 list? Definately. The fastest LS1's on the street are not the ones you hear about on the internet. They are either street racers who do not want their info known, or older SBC builders that have used old techniques to build one helluva LS1 and don't know jack about the internet.

Re: Any faster ls1s outside of ls1tech 1/4 list? Who is that Mask Man. Thanks sosLow for posting my picture.I ran a 11.65@ 119+ with a 1.79 60ft on that run,spinning hard through 1st and 2nd. The Z28 had Nitrous an ran a 11.84@ 117mph. I wonder what it looks like with the 1.58 60ft! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" /> Stalker has my E-mail so let me know when you guys plan to meet there.Cedric! <img border="0" alt="[driving]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_driving3.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

This has actually happened with 2 "reputable" shops around here who know old motors, but thought/think you can apply the same theories to LS1 stuff. *WRONG*.
So now two heads/cam LS1s run about as fast as they did stock.

Re: Any faster ls1s outside of ls1tech 1/4 list? There are quite a few really fast street race cars here in houston.
As for N/A I don't thing there's much cars that can beat the top 3 or so... but there are a few N/A cars in the low 10s.
and Nitrous cars in the mid 9s

Re: Any faster ls1s outside of ls1tech 1/4 list? How far south are we talking? To you Chi-town guys, Joliet is southern Illinois. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
There's a couple LSx cars down here that are decently fast. You won't see many times from them though(maybe a 1200' pass). I know of an LT1 in the area that runs better N/A than some power adders cars too. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Re: Any faster ls1s outside of ls1tech 1/4 list? There are a few fast LS1 setups around Chicago that don't post on here.... There was a guy spraying a red Z up at GLD who is a friend of Z28Kid92 who went 10.9's...
An older guy with a SOM WS6 who has a Vortech who went flat 11.0's...
But those folks tend to be the exception and they are still buying parts from a place like Speed Inc. and are therefore getting the same advice we have on here...
