Uhh no, you're smoking :
Question 1-9: How fast does a stock LS1 run in the quarter mile?

Answer: It all depends on the weather and the condition of your local track, however it's safe to say that any combination of LS1 will run better than 13.9. Some have run as quick as 13.0 to 13.1 without any mods, and GMHTP got a totally stock Z28 to run a 12.89 (in New Jersey in the winter though). Most owners will find that they run in the 13.5 to 13.7 range quite easily with a broken in car. It has been found that a fully broken in car will run a few tenths quicker than a fresh one right off the lot.

You'll find the above on LS1.com

Oh and the one's that are just soo fast and do run high 12's, have to be in the right conditions and more than likely have an engine thats stronger than normal, it seems that chevorlet's quality control is so good that 2 engines from the same assembly line can make totally different amounts of HP. And thus run 2 totally different 1/4 mile times. I'm not defending civicferio just don't tell me what i do and don't know.
