Basically Stock 96 Lt-1... 7.90, 1.81 60' 89mph in the 1/8th
Had one of those nights at the track...
Ham and eggs all night; she just kept getting faster...
We're running out at Immokalee, FL... 1/8th mile. See sig for mods.
60' 1.8116 (had a 1.80 on another run... 7.92 ET)
330' 5.1414
1/8th ET 7.9076
1/8th MPH 89.04
Cleaned up every run of the night... it was sweet; took down a late model TA, GTO, Z06 and a shelled out 80 somethign Monte Carlo runnin Dart heads and a long list of goodies... great guys... Of course the bad news is that one of these nights is usually followed up by a spankin,' but hey... it was glorious nonetheless.

LOL...
I hear ya guys... I thought the same thing.
But after I spent all the agony and fret rebuilding this car, I started reporting the new numbers on another site I frequent and was soon informed that my car was still 'basically stock...' It's still running the same internals that came in her, minus the cam and stall; and compared with the big hitters in the 10 and below clubs, with the lightwieght cranks, rods and pistons, monster flow heads, titanium sodium filled valves... high pressure fuel management, tubbed grippers with massive diff's, race suspension, etc... this car IS 'basically stock.'
I'll give ya the 'bolt-on' thing though; but I don't know where the line is drawn, or if there is even a concensus...
It's all good...

LOL... Thanks fellas.
Yeah there's a guy in a 3rd gen running 7.5s down here. He's a bracket car and has been running her for years... she's stripped, tubbed and plexied, but still runs the 350...
We're still very much a regular street Z; I'd bet we're still a couple of hundred pounds, at the most, short of stock; with the weight deletes listed in the sig, plus the spare and jack...
But we're real proud of her and love to throw that hammer... FTR: I do intend to upgrade the stall to a 9" 3600 and the heads to the Trick Flow 21* units in the spring... if the good Lord is willin'. I don't know where that will put us, but I gotta believe somethin' south of mid 7s (in the 1/8th).
Again, thanks for all the kudos; you guys drive safe and we'll see ya at the track.
