you forgot they added 1.6 rockers, and I got cloes to 12's with stock exhaust and a cutout, no headers, rockers, or magnaflow here...

where do you see 12.8's

I am running completely stock suspension, gears and only picked up a little (.15) with the stall since it was actually optimised for the setup I still haven't put in the car yet, and I was able to cut 1.9 60's on pep boy special (ie. el cheepo's) street tires to get those time in my sig. I will admit though that was also without rear seat and spare tire and stuff like that and they may be keeping all that in... I just did headers, exhaust, and 1.6 rr's and I am hoping for 12.8's or better so I figured their car with teh same mods can do it too...

Anyhow, this was all a guestimation on what I had compaired to their car, and the numbers I was shooting for. but like I said in my first post their car may be having other issues because it was slower with the original set of mods...

if they'd do gears and a stall I could see it hitting high 12's with good tires. Otherwise I'd say 13.5's.

this issue is recockulas. What do these guys at GMHTP thinking? I mean it is like they didnt do homework at all. I mean i ran 12.9 with a 3600 stall, stock trans, stock 2.73's, LCA's, mid-length headers, cut out, CAI, 104 octane, and a stock tune. I sprayed 125 on the same set up and ran a 12.1 .

I'd really like to see what they would do with a LE 2 package. Or spray it until it blows and then do another 396 car with a LE 3 package.
Thats kind of ambitious for a rag though

All that for a 13.8?

That can't be right can it? (If I get slower after headers/tune, I think I'll cry)

damn LT1s. i have mine and wouldn't trade it in since I've put a good amount of money into it and its my baby. However, If I did all the mods I have done for my LT1 on an LS1 I would have a way faster car. LSx's and those freekin intake maniflods and 15 degree heads.
