Well unless his car is a dog, He should be running alot better than 13flat in an ls1 !!!!
With your new mods you may only losse by 1 1/2. Assuming he drives **** poor and you drive like a pro.

Dont take my reply the wrong way. I love lt1's. Get some head work done and then you will make up some ground.

Good luck

Default gain @

When I had my car stock the best time that I ran was a 14.1 at 100mph. Now that I put on Hooker Long tubes, no cats, and a cut out, I ran a 13.6 at 101mph, I think my mph didnt change too much because when i was runnnig 14.1 I had 275-40-17 not drag radials, and recently when i ran a 13.6 I now have 315-35-17 not drag radials either. Hope this helps. My car is a 6 speed too.
