Went from 13.07@107 to 12.64@111.88 
Very Happy! 
Finally got over 400 mi. on my clutch and went to the track this weekend. I had a prev. best of 13.07 with lid,free mods,Nitto's. I added coated Pacesetter race headers,TSP ORY,!AIR,QTEC cutout,ported and polished my TB, and Spec Stg.3(w/drill mod). I'm happy w/results so far. There is still room for better times if I can get my 60' better. I need to learn how to launch better with a clutch that actually grabs! I got so used to my stock one slipping I was dumping around3-3500rpm and bogging. Had a good time, raced a brand new Roush stg.3 mustang-beat it by .74 sec. I raced the same Viper back to back runs and won both times!
I missed third the first run, but I think he did too, went back to run again and he got next to me. I figured he would get his revenge, but I had my best run and beat him again. He looked pissed! I think he was having probs. though- lots of smoke.Now to get the nitrous hooked up!

Thanks! Yeah, it was great. Especially since I did all the work by myself(well, my 8 month preg. wife helped bleed the clutch)And hearing many Spec horror stories. I'll be going back soon for some better times(hopefully)

Your times before the headers, etc are exactly where I am right now. The only difference is that I am running 13.06@107 on the stock GSC's (shityears!). I am planning on getting serious this next month or two and getting headers, the MTI Stealth II cam, and maybe even the GMMG cat-back. Plus, I think I'm going to try the M&H Musclecar Drag radials. I am hoping for mid to low 12's. Then I'll be ready for some ported LS6 heads and then a 408 or 427 build-up. My wife's gonna kill me!!

Nice times, headers are well worth it. Very close to mine, my best with a lid and Nitto's was 13.105 @ 106.77 after headers, ORY, 4.10 gears I went 12.62 @ 111.34 and I had some room for improvement.
Congrats on your times, LS1's wake up with exhaust no doubt.
