Am I wrong to be expecting very low 8's in the 1/8th? (Which should be mid 12's in the 1/4.)

I did 8.70's with a 89 Formula 350 that had stock convertor, 3.27 gears, shorties, and never had a valve cover or intake part (TPI) removed. I'm thinking the LT1 should be alot better especially with many more bolt-ons.
