LETS BRAKE IT DOWN......i have a 72,xxx mile stock ls1 m6 ss....with the stock ls1 intake and internals....all i have are some dynatech LT's a 3inch y with an open cutout and a ported tb by marine02ss and a mti carbon fiber lid.....and i am making 331hp and 348tq at the wheels.....and 376hp and 395tq at the flywheel....so i think im pretty good for now, i ran it last night about 6 times on some crappy nitto drag radials that werent hooking for ****....
my mods are....bmr tubular lca's.....b&m ripper shifter....lid....dynatech lt's and a ported tb thats it
1st run 13.9 because the track was still wet with trackbite
2nd run 13.1 better but still no traction
3rd run 13.1 same as prior run and banging the limiter in third to fourth
4th run 13.2 got alright traction off the line but a shitload of wheel hop
5th run 13.1 ...............
6th run 12.9 great traction off the line but banged the limiter on 1st to 2nd

Dude,
That sux in soooo many ways...Maybe you should invest in an aftermarket shifter down the road man...
Let me know whats going to happen to the car later on with messenger if you get a chance at work!

The car may be worse than what we thought. Misfires on 5 & 6. Took off the valvecovers, checked pushrods, one is fine the other is a tiny out of shape, but not enough to hear that kind of loud ticking. Took a look at the sparkplug and 
One of two things, bent valve or the lifter gave. Teardown begins tommorrow.
