yea everyone i have talked to has been steering me away from the 4.10's but then agian when i got my 3600 the majority were steering me away from that big of a stall too. seeing ur results and how much u enjoy the gears im convinced.

yea my yank SS3600 was the worst piece of crap i ever spent money on

So what you are telling me is that the Lt1 is different than any other type of stalled a4, not just a H/C ls1. I am not comparing it to just what my car does, I was using that as a reference.
He makes power, enough to cut a very good 60', especially better than what he is cutting in that kind of DA.
300Rwhp can net you 1.5s in that knd of DA, even on an Lt1 that is apparently different than anything else.
You don't need weight reduction, there are plenty of full weight cars that properly setup will 60' killer. And yes, suspension does help a LOT, I have full suspension (-drag bar).. I didn't say he doesn't need that, but good assumption.
I wasn't really implying anything, surely not the dumb *** statement you think I was.

I bet weight reduction would be needed to achieve that 1.5 60' along with more converter as well as gear.

John Pszenyczniak - Bolt-on only 95 Formula A4 11.561 @ 118.00 w/ 1.572 60' is a full bolt on lightened ride not many are near this with bolt ons.

Ls1 style cars are very different than Lt1 cars power at rpm levels are very different.
mod for mod an Ls1 "seems" to always out mph Lt1s.....

Your Lt1 is right on par add more bolt on goodies, keep going bro! i can only wish to have sea-level at this time

You are correct.. But MPH has absolutely nothing to do with MPH.. I still say in that kind of DA he could be at a 1.5.. Apparently I'm an idiot though, so pay me no mind.

i definately would not consider you an" idiot" all of us have our own opinions and most do turn into hypothesis.
fortunately for me i have run/lived at sea-level( HRP )and at an ugly altitude that i am at now(LVMS) the DA makes for an unimpressive pass NA. however the minor mods done to the OPs car would not allow him to achieve the #s you are representing now if he does the other mods known along with some Jenny Craig those 1.5 60s will be attainable, in good weather as previous runs...

lol i think ur an idiot.

john p's car's raceweight was like 2900lbs or maybe less. it takes a lot of work to get a 1.5x 60ft with a bolt on car. A LOT OF WORK. the OP's car is 60fting right where it should. im actually impressed with his 60ft for his mods.

You implied he should be 60 footing much better than he is with his BONE STOCK suspension. And then you compared it to your car which is a H/C ls1 with full suspension?? LOL. ok. You are comparing apples and oranges bro

BSmiff

LCAs and relo brackets. I would say some strange double adjustables up front and your choice of spring will get you where you want to go. And as mentioned before play with footbraking. Should be in for a monster pass. You have a stock rear?

Why would you think I am an idiot? I am not making some random post with no reasoning for it, I have my reasons to think it would do 1.5 and you have your reasons for not thinking it will.. I'm not sitting here saying you are an idiot for not thinking his car can cut a 1.5, nor am I saying you can't build a car cause you can't get it in the 1.5s..

Do you have any idea the difference in running in a 2500 DA and a -DA? It cant easily knock off a .1-.2 from your 60'.
He is making decent power judging from his trap speed, so it isn't like it is some dog of a car.
His race weight surely isn't the lightest car on the road, but it isn't a pig either.
I see absolutely no reason why in that kind of DA his car oculd not be 60' in the 1.5s, bottom 1.5s? Maybe not, but 1.5s yes.

FWIW, I do not think his car would 60' anywhere near that if he was in a normal DA (1500-2500).. I think it would be right where it is now, but I believe there is DEFINITELY more in that 60' with that kind of DA..

You think I am an idiot and even after I responded to you last time you still make a post like this..

trust me i know the difference between 2000+ DA and -DA i live in new england, i race in all types of weather. and all im saying is his car as it sits right now does not have a 1.5x 60ft in it. and i know from experience. me and him have almost the exact same setup. i am even lighter then he is. and i can only cut 1.68 60ft's in 500 DA. just face it man, ur wrong on this one. he either needs more power, or less weight and more suspension to get a 1.5x.

^^^^^110% agreed^^^^^

I think your in the wrong section. What does your LS1 have to do with this guys LT1 vert? Your car makes more power! Just curious. And 1.5 60's with the op's mods at that weight + stock susp Ain't Happenin'!!!

What planet do you live on? Yanks are proven.

I just read this part. That's freakin' classic.

^^^ legit all you have to read is that part to be like wtf is this kid talkin about lol.

i understand where he is coming from tho. a well setup suspension and a very lightweight car will cut great 60ft's. but also a very powerful car will cut great 60fts too lol

So, it has to be that I'm wrong and I need to face it, can't be that you can't get the most out of a setup.. Right?

I have seen some good times, and seen some killer 60' from them.. But on average most Yank cars,especially street cars, I see don't impress me with their 60' all that much, they are average.

You see where I am coming from, but I am an idiot an have not a clue what I am talking about.. Nor do I have any reason for what I post..


It is fine with me.. Be satisfied with your 1.6-1.7 short times in negative DA. Me personally, I couldn't stand it..
My old stripped MS4 car (3250# race) cut bottom 1.6 short times spinning, even hooking I could only see low 1.5s at best.. It put down 435ish Rwhp.. My current car now full weight baby cam 226 street car cuts bottom 1.5s, next track visit will be 1.4s.. It put down 370Rwhp. Explain to me how this is possible even though I make much less power.
And just for ***** CamaroRacing, what is your excuse for your short times?

Just because none of you personally can cut those times (remember the kind of DA we are talking here) doesn't mean I'm an idiot. It is very possible even at his power levels, like I have stated it has little to do with the Rwhp.. A 320Rwhp can cut a much better short times than a 375Rwhp car and visa verse..

Just keep throwing out personal insults though, it makes you look like you are far superior.

lol i have 0 excuses for my short times. because they are excellent for what my setup is lol i dont know of many bolt on only LT1 cars that can cut 1.6x 60ft times. and i only know of 2 that can cut 1.5x short times. and those r serious track cars not street cars. you really are comparing apples to oranges man you got to realize this.

iTrader: (71)

I'm not comparing his car to anything, never did.. I used my car as a reference, big difference between referencing something and using something as an example.. A few people in the thread just assumed that I was comparing his car to mine.
If you pay attention I have not once said regardless of DA.. The ONLY reason I think he should cut that good with an awesome converter is because he is in an AMAZING DA.. If the DA was normal, no way in hell he would even get close to that.

WhitePhoenix99

iTrader: (12)

Not on stock suspension and full weight. . . what part about that don't you get? The op's car isn't even making 320rwhp. You keep saying you aren't comparing it to your car but that's all the examples you are giving. . which is a car that is probably making 100 more hp. But I forgot power has nothing to do with how your car launches . ITS A BOLT ON, STOCK SUSPENSION, FULL WEIGHT LT1. IT'S NOT GOING TO CUT 1.5 60'S. Damn this argument is tiring lol.

Don't know why it is wearing you out, you just keep saying the same damn statement over. Not to factor in that the part you called me out on is perfectly correct, I have seen it myself.
CamaroRacing is at least arguing with me about things neither of us know 100%, he thinks strongly in his opinion as do I. You are arguing about things that I have witnessed first hand, kind of hard to make someone believe anything else when they KNOW what can/can't happen.
