We'll use the faster LS1 for example, stock, they are CApABLE of running a VERY HIGH 12, that is with a percect driver, and absolutely perfect weather conditions. Thats at the track, where traction is much better too. Now take into consideration I've only ran these things on the street, with regular street drivers. Not to say all of them were bad, but they weren't putting high 12's on their slips either. Maybe they picked out a bad combination of parts. Hell, I got beaten by one with a few other things this past Saturday night, but not too bad, only by 1 length.

I don't remember what all you asked me except my race weight. The car weighs 2200, and I'm 150. That should answer that.


regardless the majority of heads cam packaged ls1's run 11@ over 122 with street tires regardless of the part combination from watching them at the track and on camaroz28.com i know they are none off the top of my head slower than 12.0 and even then the trap was 119.. and some run-

GET THIS 10.9 WITHOUT HEADS! PURE STOCK heads and a cam with some tuning... so i highly doubt a ls tegra motor and a turbo is pushing those times unless you got the 400+fwhp and suspension to back it up even with 2200 lbs.

did you get that figure at a racetrack scale and if so was it gutted to the frame? since you were at the track and weighed it did you happen to get slips, what was your trap speed?

btw so your saying in completely street trim, you car is capable of hanging with a car that traps at 120mph?

heres the link agian.

heres some info for the unelightened

sad part is i dont like ls1's in the least, to much money to unreliable when built. it funny someone with a mildy built honda combination can sit there and make a blanket statement then come back at the end of the thread and say how he BEATS THE STOCK ONES.... exactly how many heads cam ls1's did you beat?
