New LT1 Blower Record

Looks like some one went 8.43 in their LT1, given the trap speed I think this car has a lot more in it....

Thats my all time favorite LT1 car and has more than a 7.9 in it. Stef is a great guy and I met him down at the Shootout. Wish he didnt have issues that day..

Stefan is getting it done! Now we just need to see Sikora start dialing his car in as well.

I was disappointed when I heard Sikora wasn't going to be able to bring his Garage Ornament out to run. I think its about damn time the stars align and an Lt1 runs a 7 already - hell, there are boosted to **** 4cyl cars in the 7s.

I know for a FACT that if we had an aftermarket block there would already be a few LT cars in the 7s. I'm still grumpy about that , and I'm not buying a damn thing from Dart because of it

/rant /OT.

i havent seen sikora's car, but that red t/a in the vid is setup to run a number... not sure how hard he plans to squeeze on the LT1, though. think i read somewhere he was going to a bigblock.

Z8s doesnt think it has 7s in it, based on his best all out 1/8th 60 and 1/8th ET. I hope hes wrong but at the same time I hope Chris gets it first.

it may not do it on 275s, but i betcha it would go 7's on a 315 radial. turbo cars on 275s tend to be lazy to the 60' (compared to a nitrous car) until they've sorted everything out which could take quite a few passes and parts swaps.

fwiw, big rick's car went 8.dohs with a 1.3x 60'.

This was the desktop on my tuning laptop. I think he is back with the LT1 front end again now.
