You'll definitely see high 11s with a converter and some sticky tires. I dropped .7 with my ST3500 through stock exhaust manifolds when I was stock internals.
1.90 60fts are pretty darn good with the stock converter !!!
Nice times man!

thanks guys...no i havent dropped any weight. i was launching at about 1000 to 1300 rpms. drag radials helped alot. very little spinning off the line. shoulda did a good burnout. just kind rolled through it and burned it off. still learning but might have been able to get a lil better time.

Yeah, right after you left Rick ran a 12.9!
Later, me and the Girl w/ the Z06 started playing around, and I got a 13.14
and she had a 13.16. It was close!
Thanks man!! All it has is a Lid, Filter, and y-pipe w/ cut out! Oh and 180,000 miles on it!! She's a miracle car! LOL!
I really wish I would have ran across a car like yours when I was looking! But after yeaterday I'm happy with what I got!
