What does it weigh with you in it?

I think you can drive yourself into the 12s unless its a tank or you granny shift.

What are your current R/T numbers? Does the car have traction control, some LS1's came with it and when it's on, your slow. If not, you need to practice, a lot.

well my r/t before they changed the light set up at spinworld(orlando speed world.) were right between .530-.580 and now its .000 is prefect instead of .500 but again the last time i ran it was a 170hp 305 so i need to get used to it first thats why im giving myself a month. but i just want some honest opinions in where i should be 12's or low 13s is my thought more then likely 13s.

tell me about it, idk how but a buddy of mine ran a 11.7@118 with a stock intake and exhaust on a 125 shot, and 245 stock tires (1.8 60'). me with a lid and cutout and 125 shot ran a 12.7@113 and 245 crap tires(2.0 60')

hopefully i can dip into the 11s with my set of bf dr's on 15" weld lights
