New times in L98...
Old mods- 91 corvette L98 bored .060 with forged internals, Hooker longtubes, flowmaster exhaust, ported plenum, BBK throttle body, no cats, SLP CAI, and my friends drag radials amounted to a 13.67 @ 101 mph.
New mods- Added 1.6 roller rockers, replaced flowmaster with borla adjustable exhaust, new set of nitto555r 285 drag radials, and some weight reduction(took out seats, spare tire n jack, also no air conditioning). Oh and a 150 shot of NX nitrous.
Best N/A run of the night was a 13.63 @ 102.4 with a 1.81 60'.
Best Nitrous run of the night was 12.35 @ 110.4 mph.
My friend also came along in his 1994 camaro with an LS1 swap with longtubes, exhaust, TB, and a built tranny. He ran 13.4 @ 108.4 mph with some traction issues.

You know, i'm actually startin to wonder if the previous owner put in a mild cam. Every person I come across things my times are a lil fast for my car, but I don't really notice any uneven idle or anything like that. He did have a 305 in beforehand and then put in a 91 vette L98, and forged the internals etc, so maybe he did slap in a cam in there while it was torn apart

Also, w/o knowing what cam you have in there, 1.6 RR's might push you beyond the limits of your springs. Might be a good idea to upgrade them to something that can take like .600 lift just to be safe.
