It was 11.6 or 11.8 I think for a while then the same guy went custom and beat it again with I believe a low 11 second pass. Its real easy to run low-mid 12's cam only with these cars and a good setup.

Edit: I guess thats the guy^^

Hey Frank, what size tire and gear combo are you running? I was always curious about that as I was trying to get my car faster by switching to 4.10's as my car crossed the traps way below its power band.

I went 12.38 with an off the shelf cc306. Stock heads, short block and throttle body. With a fairly heavy car too.

How about it Frank. Do you still have the original head gaskets in your cam only LT1?

12.5's sould be cake with a good cam and matching setup. I went 12.8 @ 106 mph with a blower cam (horrible choice without a blower to match, lol), stock gearing, mid length headers, and missing some bolt-ons at Lebanon (not the best track).
