same here.. but what it does on the top end has nothing to do with pulling the tires.. lt1s arent known for the top end at all.. 12.6@104... 12.6 in an ls1 is around 108+..
More power is more power. 12.6 @ 108 wouldn't be from a stalled auto LS1. My car stock went 13.3 @104. With a similar 60' as this guy I would expect a 12.6-12.7 and with most stalls you tend to loose some MPH as well. And much like this guy, whne my car was running 12.9s I was turning low 107 mph.

You have to remember that Im a bolton car, and not a full one at that. Ive got headers, a stall and 3.73's. I dont see any other LT1's cutting 1.6 60' with those mods. Im shooting for the bolton record, and Im slowly working towards 11's at the moment. Im spreading the word that Circle D makes excellent converters. Im on stock suspension btw.
The 60 is good, but I would have thought it would have been more in the 1/4. Granted I have an LS1, but I dropped ~.25 in the 60' and my 1/4 times went down .7 when I swapped stalls.
New Best Pre Stall
1.672-60' 1.923-60'
5.089-330' 5.415-330'
7.993-1/8 8.308-1/8
84.20-mph 83.00-mph
10.526-1000' 10.815-1000'
12.677-1/4 12.93-1/4
104.65-mph 106.57-mph
I know the topend isnt golden but LT1's dont make that kind of pull up top with stock heads much less a stalled auto. I know id lose a mph, but ill get it back. The timeslip on the left is with the stall, and the timeslip on the right is W/O the stall.
