Stock internal 96k+ mile LT1 goes 11.67
Just got back from Bradenton Motorsports Park over on the west coast....
What a day. www.pbfbody.com rented out the track for a day. $42/car, 55 cars so it wasn't bad at all.
I could have made about 20-25 passes if I wanted to, but I let the car sit for awhile just to hang out, let it cool, talk to people, etc.
First run....had nitrous in the line but forgot to re-open the bottle. Sprayed a little bit off the line then the rest of the run I realized it stopped spraying so I let out at the end. 13.7 @ 90 1.6x 60'
Second run....got the bottle nice and warm, hotlapped from the previous run. Was about 82-83 degrees outside at the time of this run.
100 shot - 11.99 @ 110.x 1.58 60' (happy as hell after this one).
Hotlapped it again and ran a 12.1 @ 109.x on a high 1.5x 60'
Let the car cool...put in the 150 jets, warm up the bottle
11.67 @ 114.x 1.54 60'
Ran again but spun real bad.....12.2
I had lots of people coming up to me asking what I had done....there were SO many LS1s, Mustangs, Grand Nationals, etc.
I was the only LT1 in the 11's, and everyone was quite surprised to see that I have 96k+ miles and never had a valve cover off

so the engine is bone stock with: headers, cai, nitrous, ignition box, tune, 160 thermo and an electric water pump. not to mention the stall, rear and gears to help you get it done? good job.

Last time I checked, bolt-ons aren't engine mods

Dude i bet youll pick up some et just by switching to some 275/50/15's. That tall sidewall is probably bringing you back down to almost a 3.23.
Also, you probably know this already, but WOT shifts into OD will wreak havoc on your bands, it's a no no.

With good driving LT1's can make a ton of power.... Good job...

You should try to get into the 11's with just bolt ons.. then add the spray into the mix.

I don't see how bolt-ons make the engine not stock, but whatever.
