You're trapping equal to or less than stock ls1 traps in that Mach, and that adds up real fast from a roll. If you aren't into rolls, you should be looking for cars that are setup like yours to run imo...
I'm not the one that said a stock LS1 could take me. Plus you are taking this way too seriously. Sure, I'd love to run a LS1 with equal mods as mine and ET Streets. Set it up

When can I expect you to show up? You sure you don't want to run at the track?
if my car was set up for dig runs id be more than happy to do a dig. i think a 20 is close enough for you. and who said anything about me comming to you?

So you call me out and I'm suppose to take time off work to drive to Ohio to run you?

I'm guessing you have never been to the track so I guess asking you to post up a slip would be useless.

What are you guys going to do if my 2 seized calipers I found when I changed the brakes and taking off the front chrome 17x9s put my trap speed 110...111...112...or 113mph with mods in sig?



BTW sorry for the off topic OPer, if you want me to drop it let me know.

If I can find it, I'll post up my slip, but it's from way back, in another car, that runs just a hair better than what it would on the street.. . Then again it would run almost as quick on the street....

ran mid 13's @ 101-102 about a month after i got it 2 years ago. havent been back since the mods were installed. regardles with the wheel/tire combo and gears its not a dig car. never said it was. and considering this is the second time ive called you out i think you should get off your lazy *** and come show me whats up, cause i know my jobs too important for me to leave.

Op you bring back great memories... I made a really big upgrade also.. a stock 5 speed 87 Toyota supra to a c6 vette after 5 years of driving... When I left the dealership I went straight to the track and first ever drag pass I made was a 12.7 @ 114. Beat a 06+ body style mustang cobra. I don't know the year that on was. Regardless I thought it was fast and could take on a 600... First *** handed.... second time I lost.. 408 dubbed 02 ss camaro.. He told me it was a bolt on ls1 and I lost 50$ from a 45-135 he got me by about 2 cars but that was when the car was bone stock. Yea the car will be fast as hell until you get walked and then the addiction comes Just set goals and go with them but do your research on the parts first. I'm sure there's plenty of guys here will help you out with the best mods for your budget.
