With that trap speed I bet it would be a good run!

If I'm comparing an LS1 to anything I won't compare it as a 12sec car simply because a few guys have managed to run that number, and 95% never will. Heck, most places will NEVER see the kind of air/track conditions it takes to run bottom 13s in a Mach 1, hence why just about every stock run you see is in the MID 13's. Why is that so hard to swallow? So again, using the fastest times for comparison is pointless.
You're apparently not intelligent enough to understand the point. When you underestimate the car and it does come bust your ***, don't cry about it and make 2500 post thread.

How's your turbo mach run? I have a buddy with a turbo Mach. I think his best is 11.6 @ 119. But it typically traps around 122. He's on 8psi. He has a t56 in it. That thing has broke 3 input shafts between the 3650 and t56.

Better then most I would say. Only because I pushed it to limits other don't. Never had it to the track but on 11lbs it dynoed 526/538. I was running it on the maypop (13lbs) tune when I ran the Z so it was probably closer to 550+ at the wheels. The Z made 43x @ the wheels on the same dyno on motor with e85 tune and don't know what it made on the spray. Also ran a c6 with a 416 stroker and was pulling back around him in 4th. He trapped 128-129

If your on the stock motor that's pretty good. He can't afford to blow his up right now. It's starting to puff a little smoke and its used some water for along time now. Most of the time the rods don't stay i in them very long past 450. A local guy made right around 500 with his and he didn't make it home from the dyno before it broke.

Mine made it 5 months like that. It just recently let go during a rematch with the same z on a 175 shot. I had bought a new shortblock the week prior to that so I quess it figured now's a good time to drop a cylinder! Lol

Ftfy. Not sure why you're so scared to run your 11 second mach against a 13 second street car.
