So i got to ride in a pretty fast ls1 the other day. okay, it was probably the fastest thing i had ever ridden in. It was no bs what he had done to it b/c he showed me all of the old parts. He had an ls6 intake, ls6 injectors. Heads and cam from futral motorsports. Stage 3 clutch and flywheel. Force air induction under the lid, adn an slp lid. Basically the whole top end of the car was built. he was running open headers with a 3" dump coming out by the tire. he also had a ford 8" rear with 411's in it sitting on nitto 555's. He ran a 7.20 in the 1/8th and he showed me his slip, his 60' time was above 2 seconds as well cuz how bad he spun and might not be able todrive. he pulled a 7.20 with a 2.xx 60' so its pretty damn fast. and i saw the slip. I forgot the speed though. it was close or right around 100 i think. when we went for a ride the 1st time he got on it was the top of 3rd adn when we hit 4th it broke the rear lose at like 85 mph. no joke i was amazed. he said when he run at the track he spun through 1st and mid 2nd b/c the dr's he bought were rubbing so he ran with the nittos which are still pretty good. then we went from a roll in 1st adn spun and hit 2nd and spun but it was fast. I just wanted to know what a 7.20 with 4.11's would be equivalent to in the 1/4.
btw sorry for the long story, it was just my first experience in a 450ish hp car, thats another thing he didnt have, was a dyno tuned run so he didnt know his hp so if anyone with similar mods on an ls1 would know.
thanks for any help

well... ls6 intake, could be a stock item, ls6 injectors, not a big deal, heads/cam from futral? Ding ding ding, there's your money maker right there, just thisalone he coudl be a 500 horsepower car with the bolt ons! So i would say he could run 11's all day long, but spinning first and hrough second is a stock ls1 with 245's, so it's not a big deal. Shoot, my 285's with bolt-ons would roast first and second, so gotta know how to feather. And yeah, nitto 555s at track will kill him, it's proabbly faster! Nice ride, ger some pics of it, better yet, get him on here.

yeah hes not a big internet guy. so he wouldnt get on here. and i could take pics but basically it looks like a stock ls1 that is loud as ever. he did put the ls6 on cuz i saw the stock one in his garage. it was really fast for a naturally aspirated, non forced induction car. forged internals, and a 100 shot it would be extremely fast.
