Default Who has the fastest LT1 record for a full weight car?

So I am trying to find out what the fastest 1/4 mile that anyone has gone in a full weight LT1 (meaning full A/C, interior, ect.). I know most of the guys going that fast have yanked out a lot. But I am trying to find what the fastest 1/4 mile time for a full weighted LT1.

Anyone know?

Like I said in the original post, I need to find the fastest lt1 (f-body) quarter mile with nothing yanked out, to include the AC.

So far it sounds like 9.7 is the fastest that has been posted. Anyone know of a faster time? Or better yet, does anyone know what the a actual record is?

Keeping track of who ever is the fastest with whatever mods is very difficult, because not everyone posts their results on a forum.

The ac part is tough, LJ from Acceleronics ran 9.4@148 in his YSi 383 LT1, saw street time. Tanner's car also saw a lot of street time as well.

I don't think AC should matter when in full street trim, because some of them didn't come with ac from the factory. Personally that's getting nit picky when into the low 9s with full weight. lol

You are going to have fun trying to keep track past 10.0. Once you get the cage in to keep running there is not alot of room for much of the other stuff.

I am trying to find out because I have a buddy who has a full weight lt1 f-body who is wondering what time he would need to beat to be the fastest full weight. I know it may be hard to track, that's why I am asking if anyone knows.

I don't think Tanner is running AC.

Yep, your right and I thought about that. Some 1LE cars didn't have it, same Alan's 93 Formula on here, which was a former GMHTP magazine car, factory ac delete car.

it is Taner, lol!

car has gone 9.08 at over 155 mph at a tick under 3700 pounds. and mine is driven on the street. it is built for 91 octane. yes i do put better fuel in when spraying the crap out of it.

shouldn't matter if a/c is in the car. only thing that matters is is it driven? and what does it weigh? I have a 14pt moly cage in the car, a full width back braced 9" , lotsa good extra weight added, and some removed to offset it.

if all i cared about was et, i would have cranked the compression and dropped in a TH400.

You can't penalize a guy for having safety equipment, if some thing runs mid 9s with no cage at 140+, doesn't make it a "street car," makes it a death trap. We see that all the time down here, mid 9 second cars with zero saftey any thing because it's a "street car" still, wreck that bitch and your street car is a meat grinder.

The bad thing is cages make the car death traps on the street. If you get into an accident with no helmet you better pray your head doesn't hit the rollcage.

Do you have AC in the car?

I am not taking away from your time at all. Your quarter mile mile time is damn impressive. But I am trying to find the fastest quarter mile time from an lt1 f-body with no weight restriction done meaning it still has the factory AC, interior, ect. If yours still has the factory AC, then I am sure you probably have the fastest time. But for some reason I thought you had yanked your AC out.
