calling all 11sec. lt1's
 

So are there any bolt on lt1s in the 11s? Doesnt matter if its a 11.9999. My goal is just that, to hit a 11 in my car. Its got major weight loss, suspension, every bolt on and at least a 150 shot, hopin to top out at a 200 shot. I got gears and a built trans and a 3200 stall. Car prob weighs prob in the high 3100lbs range. Motor wise ill have 1.6 rockers and a valve train, got longtubes with bullets dumped off the headers. Any one running a 11 sec. lt1? And if you dont think its poss. then it looks like i have a goal to shoot for then!! :judge:

Technically aren't you already past bolt on with N2O and roller rockers?

I was under the impression that bolt ons were things that were bolted to the motor, nothing internal or forced induction. :confused:

You are correct about the nitrous, but i think the RRs are considered bolt-ons since you can just 'bolt them on'. Also I think the record is still 11.80 by "Shon Herron" or something like that, just search and you may find it.

yea, well i said bolt-on motor WITH nitrous. call it what ever you want i guess but thats what i got.

if you dont hit your goal sell your car and get something else. the car sounds like it should hit your goal even if it is a 11.999 run you still broke 11's

shons car on the sauce would have been in the 10's. so i think you should be able to hit an 11.

What bolt ons did Shon have? Is there an old thread already about him?

it had all the suspension stuff, a 12 bolt, longtubes, elec. waterpump, rockers, throttlebody, cai, exhaust, non-dyno tune.

Basicly he had a light car that hooked pretty damn good.?.

11's are a small goal with nitrous.

thats what everyone is tellin me but i dont set standards to high. Im bein realistic and id be happy with a 11.60 or so. So i can talk some junk to the LS1... OMG its a ls1!! I hate hearing that!

makes ya wonder why everyone isnt doing it, huh? lol

thats what im doin, the only thing i dont have right now is a k-member and a-arms. Everything else is gone... and i mean everything. Just finished my exhaust lastnight, still gotta do the valvetrain and wire the nitrous and well see what it can do.

The fastest bolton+juice Impala is 11.3 on I think a 150 shot. If you don't run well into the 11s it is your fault for doing something wrong. Don't even bother attempting a 200 shot on as cast stock heads you wont go faster than you would have with about a 150 shot they exhaust side just can't move that kind of volume.

I pulled an 11.69 @ 6000 Ft. Elev . With spray and boltons :drive:

if you dont spray it would be a bolt on car

last time i checked nitrous bolted on !
bolted the bottle down
bolted the selonoids to fuel rail
bolted the nozzle to the air boot
sounds like a bolt on to me.

it does bolt on, but it is classified as a power adder. same as turbos superchargers etc.

If this board was worth a shit the search function would work and someone could look this stuff up. And they will not let me put a link to my 'shop car' that has all the information needed about this bolt on car but since it's like that I will fill those in...

It was a 97Z28 with 132k miles, T56 on stock replacement clutch driven by Russ Ethridge. Dude that had it before me sprayed the piss out of it but I never did :(
Bolt ons included all the ones everyone else does for mid 12s, 4.33 gears, race weight was in the 3100 range and we spun it to 6000+ thru every gear and launched at 6k+ and it hooked and left!!
Suspension and good air is the best mods you can have plus a sticky track. the car never was put on the dyno and I did all the tuning via LT1edit/Tunercat.
If you want more details and can not find the post from me let me know, I will open the book for you and you can go that fast too.

NOW, 11s with bolt ons and nitrous should not be a problem at all!!

what gear were you crossing the big end in, with those rear gears?
