Default 1/4 mile ET's, also can I take a stock LS1?

Please see my sig for mods.

Currently I am at 301 RWHP & 326 RWTQ.


My datamaster calculator projects 13.4 ET @ 107MPH based on actual logging numbers. My 60 foot was 2.2 and 0-60 was 4.8.

What is my expected 1/4 ET?
Can I take a stock LS1?

If you race, a bone stock ls1. You should be able to beat it.

Those are almost the same hp and tq numbers I get and my 1/4 is in my sig...

Here is my graph for comparison, but realize the dyno operator didn't believe me when I told him to run my car to 160 in 3rd gear, so it gets cut off a little early, and I don't have the slip for where it broke 300rwhp...

Your car is more than capable of an easy mid-high 12 second pass on tires with the proper suspension mods.

with that, you'd smoke a stock LS1 hard in the quarter, and you should have no problems with them from a roll.

I already have LCA's installed, made a big diffrence. I have the relocation brackets but they have not been put on yet. I would like to get some drag radials but I know what will happen to the 10 bolt.

i dunno...... i would have to think that that would be a close race, cause u will prolli launch him but he would have more top end on u cause lets face it, its a LS1 and u have 4.10's.

Thats exactly what I was thinking. My 1st and 2nd gears are wicked fast and I dont have any slip, but I know the LS1 has the edge from about 80 and up. I honestly believe it would be close one way or the other. Im just thrilled that I have come from a mid 14 second car to this.

Hard to say.. I just ran a 13.5 @ 104mph on a 2.260ft with a very pathetic launch and hitting the limiter in 3rd (i thought I was going to make the traps in 3rd DOH)...

That was my first time down the track ever and ive been driving an M6 now for about 3 weeks.

If you can trap 107mph and hook (low 13/high 12)..I would say you can take the average stock LS1...

i think it will come down to driver and traction, like thats a surpise.lol cause u are going to be making very similar numbers besides TQ, cause LT1's rule in the TQ category. LS1's are top end cars.

Well your a convertible, youre car would have put down more power than that if it was a HT or TTop.
Thats being said, your gears give you a nice advantage.
Your power adders mainly, are your CAI, Headers, Tune, Cam, Catback and 1.6 RR's.

You should be able to take some LS1's, but a later model with 3.42's and M6 might give you a run for your money, so I'd say your in "drivers race territory".

Definately depends on the driver. The 301 rwhp is on par with most LS1's stock. I owned a 98 Z that stock put down 277 and I saw a stock 01 SS 326. I ran stock 13.6 @ 106, but have witnessed a stock LS1 Z run 13.2 @ 107

Just to play off of your car, my ttop 95 LT1 was putting down right at 300 rwhp and I took down a guy in an LS1 making 32x. So close that on the street, drivers can be huge

yeah driver is huge when it comes to racing M6's, ive personally witnessed with two of my friends, one with a 99 SS M6, and one with a 98 TA M6, both went to the track and the SS ran a 14.1 and could never get his car into the 13's, and the TA was running low low 13's, (the guy with the SS cant drive ) driver is def. important IMO.


Both had minor mods(intake exhaust).
