For a stock car, that's about right on par for where you should be, depending on DA. MPH is a bit low, but not too far off.

Check the RPO codes. GU2 - 2.73s, GU4 - 3.23s.

if you have a first gear symbol on your shifter them it most likely is a 3:23, but if you dont its a 2:73. check the sticker on your driver door and do a search that way

On LT cars it's in the glove compartment. He probably has 3.23's and that 1/4 mile time is about right on the mark for healthy LT1 cars I'd say. Many I see run high 14's all day...can you say wake up and tune up? haha

You are doing fine!
the 60' time you have is good and will definately show a lower mph without the typical mods to help the top end of the 1/4 mi......time to MOD

the le2 setup should bring a smile to your face. With all the bolt ons you should run anywhere from low 11's to low 12's depending on many variables.

8.90S in the 1/8th mile are pretty good for a stock lt1 car. I need to get my stock 97SS out on the track to see what she can do before I start the mods.
