?? Fastest "real" LT1 headed car??

Who or what is the fastest lt1 factory headed car out there? This means using a factory lt1 head (can be ported,big valve, whatever) running no power adders.

Whats the fastest nitrous pass on a factory lt1 head?

We were having a debate elsewhere and I'm not sure myself.

Its probably someone who doesnt use the internet. But Dave DiLuca went 9.40 with AFR heads back in the day on nitrous.

NA? I have no idea.

N/A on stock castings would probably be an NHRA Super Stock car (Mid to low nines).

yes, but you have to decide when to let the tires see some VHT. The car is going to need new rubber before it even hits the track.

Lets not forget our LT1 pal Steve Quinn, he ran 9.7@13x NA with a LT1 GM casting, power adder Z8s takes the cake.
