stolen 5.0 Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 should at least figure out what the cobra has done to it first and go from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokin5s Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 I believe some people have been able to get their stock LS1's into the low 13's high 12's... get intake and exhaust I"m sure you can get there. didn't Sean Wease get like 12.6 or 12.9 with just an intake and exhaust?

Wease Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 didn't Sean Wease get like 12.6 or 12.9 with just an intake and exhaust? I was just going to post about me. Is your 2002 Z28 a 6 speed or auto? If that was posted or in your profile, I didn't see it. My 6 speed, 2000 WS6 Formula, with just a lid, exhaust, Nittos, and some weight reduction went 12.585 @ 111.60. With just those simple mods, think you'll have little problem beating the Cobra, if you can drive your car... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Got-Boost? Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 Unless he has a Vortec on it which is the norm for those motors..... I would just get a 100-shot (along with the other cheap bolt-ons) and be done with it. You won't know until after the fact so no point in spending big bucks (heads, cam, etc...) if your dealing with a 12.90 or 13.50 car....

Guest hotrodmama024 Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 Well it was ran at that track and did a 13.69 (my ls1) that was just with an air lid. But my tires suck, cant get them to grip. Also a 6 speed. I wanted to do exhaust and suspension this year and then do cam and headers next year. I dont really want to do nitrous though. Well see how my taxes look, might just do headers, exhaust, and some suspension. Have to get new rotors and breaks too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My car already has a few pounds shaved off, from no power windows and door locks. But i cant get rid of the back seat. Have a daughter too. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i cant get rid of the back seat. Have a daughter too. lol Keep in mind this was for the track only. I didn't normally drive around like this. I removed the front seat, floor mats, hatch cover, spare tire/jack, and the rear seats. That's about 100 pounds of stuff right there. What was your trap speed when you ran that time?

Guest hotrodmama024 Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 .0159. it was around there 3 times. i wold have to look at my sheets again. First time ever doing drag too. Woohoo!

Yeah i dont think i will do all that weight reduction, but good idea. I believe he asked for your "trap speed". How fast did you go in the 1/4 mile. That looks more like a reaction time. If go from a roll I don't think you have much to worry about. From a dig would be close, if he has gears. Good luck though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
