That's free mod territory bud.

I had a buddy the went 13.9 in the heat with his 120k stock lt car. It was auto.

So now bolt-on Machs are faster than gt100's

This

Big talk....coming from you who has not backed up anything they have said.
Oh **** the almighty bolton ls1 is getting parted out go figure bahahaha

I have already proven otherwise with my own car.


Thats right, I don't know if it will run a 12.24869 or a 12.5799, but I DO know that Mach isn't going into the 11s without major weight loss or nitrous oxide. I've already told you good luck and I truly hope you prove me wrong. Get over yourself man.
Get over the slicks thing. You used a 346cid motor and an automatic to shift for you. I used slicks and ended up going faster with less. Just the way it is, move on.

There you go, you don't know, period. The Mach 1 will go 11's as it sits IMO with some tweeking of the suspension. Might not go that fast the first time to the 1/4 but it will go 11's this way. If it can run a 7.7 in a shot run then it should go 7.6 or faster on a good run. Hard to believe it even for me, but its doing it!

Sepno was driving fine for what he was using. His trap speed isn't going to change much at all. His ET had alot of room to grow though. For what I was seeing that night my trap speed was on par especially seeing as how I had 2 bad calipers in the rear. (not that I think that would have = 4mph or anything)

Best of luck to you man. I mean that for real. But I think you're putting too much into your 1/8th mile and not looking hard enough at what its doing on the back half. And I dont see how having an automatic has anything to do with my point...which was the comparison of that 110 mph LS1 not being a good representation or comparison. As for the slicks, hate to tell you man but they are s big deal as far as how much is left as it sits.

Trust me.....Sepno or his car was off.....maybe a little of both. No reason why that car shouldn't go 12's. W/o knowing all his mods it's hard to say where in the 12's but I went 12.6 @112.8 with less. But as you can tell from what Notch and I showed you.....they don't need headers go 11's. And yes his mph was way down. 2-3 mph is safe to say.

Btw I think you can go 11's with it. I just don't think it's there yet. It's also gonna have to rely on the 60' much more so than a ls1 car. Stop down playing those slicks, we all know what they do for a car.

Guitar's car will run much better this time out and he will surprise you guys when you see his ETs and trap speeds. I can understand his previous Ets though. His last time out, he was not running any kind of tire for fear of breaking the stock rear.
His car is now setup with a built rear and a real tire and wheel. This is all he really needed to begin with since his motor already makes good power. Making the power he has and running on a street tire will just leave you sitting at the line while blowing the tires off. Not a good recipe for low Ets.
I have a feeling many of you will be surprised. IMO

Edit: I know his car is quick based on a recent race he had. For him to beat that other car, he has to be making some good power. Just a matter of putting it down to the ground.

You don't need a tire to run better than he did.
