Default First LS1 here

Hey everyone,

I have been lurking around reading for a few weeks now since I bought my 1998 Firebird Formula A4 ($3000!!) and figured I should go ahead and create a profile. My intention is going to be to make a max effort bolt on car for now because when I go to the drag strip I see way to many cammed cars running ~13.5 with a blistering 2.5 60'. I ran mine for the first time and was pretty down as I expected a 13.6ish run and ran a best of 13.96 @ 100 with a 2.16 60'. I dont know the DA but it was pretty hot and I couldnt launch at anything but idle without terrible wheel spin. The cars only mods at this time are a spectre drop in filter and a flowmaster knock off muffler I had laying around. Anyway I feel like I am rambling now... Look forward to working with everyone (but mostly just reading)

There are many factors when drag racing as you know but I believe that most stock fbodies are in the 13.5-13.7 range. Mine was 13.5 best with stock tires.
