I have stock LS1 springs that came on the stock 241 heads.
Don't get your panties in a bunch guys. Its not a big deal if i don't get on your precious SI list. This car is for my own personal pleasure and goals. I don't care much for racing other people just improving on my times. Maybe after i get my launches and RT consistent i might start callin other cars out.But till then i'll just keep racin the clock.
I think it would have been retarded to have the motor built knowing i was going to spin it high when i get a cam and not put ARP bolts in.
edit: not trying to be a dick but its just rod bolts.

You know Juan, I bet if you had stock rod-bolts you will still prolly be stuck in the 7.50's

All of these nit picky lists are gay

Let me rebuild a stock motor, i know it would make more power than a factory motor.
There is so much that can be done, rings, coatings, etc that still uses MOST stock parts.

OH well, it's still fun!

Good job! Do it for your own satisfaction and personal improvement. Who cares about a silly internet list that people continually call BS on if you do better than them. Is there a seperate SI list for LS6 engines? Seems only fair since they have the 'good' springs and lighter valves Bottom line your car is haulin' the mail and if you are having fun with it than that is all that matters...that was the point of my first post but obviously I was stepping on someone's claim to fame Not trying to upset anyone or downplay their accomplishments...like I said before fast is fast no matter how you do it.

Have fun and congratulations

you guys should adopt the NHRA AFIA stock rules and stop your arguing.10.17 at 132.14 mph 3200 lbs with driver.stock cubes,heads,cam lift,any duration,and if you think they have stock rod bolts your are mistaken.

But they qualify for cam ONLY? They aren't going to do anything for a SI car. Now a cam only car.....they could help with the higher RPM range.


How many SI cars are making power above 6700 RPM's?

That is my only concern regarding this..

I think he has a very fast car and definately has the possibility to run quicker than my #'s... His 1/8th shows the potential.

Like most guys said already, just do it for your own satisfaction. Whatever floats your boat.

SI guys could get as **** as changing the stock springs every time they go to the track. Or buying a whole bunch of stock springs and testing them and using only the ones that have the most pressure. I've personally spun my 98s 90K mile motor to over 6400 rpm when my car had just a lid/filter/catback on it with the 2.73 gears. Picked up no ET but did pick up 2 mph doing that so obviously there was no valve float since the mph went up from 106-108. With alot of gear the ET would have jumped aswell. Not to mention that 98-00 cams are better at high RPM than 01-02 cams.

this **** is gay.. most of the lt1 stock internal guys think its okay to change rockers and consider themeselves stock internal... i think if anything but a factory phucking longblock that has never been touched period should qualify.. i mean where else do u draw the line??? if the the lt1 guys can change rockers, why cant the ls1 guys? cam only.. does that mean just a cam only ??? those guys change springs, rod bolts ect.. that is not cam only.. oil pump, timing chains ect are changed.... for example.. im a cam only car but i have patriot duals among other mods to the motor lol.. so if u want to get picky, get really picky, dont just get picky to suit ur needs.. if the rest of em are stock internal, this guy sure as hell is as well!

Dude, the whole thing is gay when you stop and think about it. 99% of the SI LS1 guys run the stock tranny, including the guys who have held the record. As soon as guys go cam only, the top dogs also slap a braked T-400 behind that cam only motor. Put the A4 back in there and those cars would run in the 10.60 range. Put a braked turbo 200 (no overdrive) in there and the currently shared record would be broken, but that tranny would not be as durable as the 400.

But, the guys doing this are having a good time and have a friendly rivalry going. That makes it fun for all of us. So more power to them.

How can you say "Unofficially" the fastest SI car in the world when you haven't even ran the 1/4 yet and haven't ran faster than Magnus in the 1/8??

Well I'm a little confused here. So is SI defined by "anything in the motor that oil touched, could not be modified or replaced with aftermarket parts"? I ask because heads are not "in the motor" but they are on the motor. Reason why I'm being so precise with the wording here is that oil touches the intake/tb aswell by means of the PCV system. There will always be some small amount of oil that enters the TB and intake, some LS1s will injest more than others. But that would rule out changing the intake for a 90/90 set-up. So what's everyone's thoughts on that?

That is correct, ARPs eliminate you from stock internal.
