Re: Not a 3rd Gen...
On the bottle?? Few bolt ons like what?? What heads/cam?? I could see the 12 sec pass for the LS1 with that set up..Im not trying to dog your car but my buddys live and breath the LSX ****..and Its hard to get in the 10s off the bottle..
Re: Not a 3rd Gen...
No bottle, like the sig says... stock cubes, full bolt ons, heads & cam. Hate to burst anyone's bottle, but I ran consistent 12.20's with only bolt ons - stock long block, stock internals, etc.
My car is no light weight, but gutted LS1 cars with stock engines have seen 10's. I don't feel my ET's are that hard to swallow based on that. The heads & cam make up for the extra weight.

Re: Not a 3rd Gen...
Yeah I am too..I dont care what motor you have(this is anyone) In an F-body..(82-2002) it seems like 450-500ish at the wheels and hook gets your into the high 10s low 11s.. 10.11 at 127 is what my buddys 99Z car when last friday with a nasty wheel stand..Stock bottom end..Hot cam LS6 intake 200 shot..with some big *** slicks..BUT the car weighs 32-3200 with him in it..Not the typical 3650-3700lbs..Im sure Im ganna get flamed for what I said about hp numbers with 1/4 times but thats typicaly what iv seen/read drove....
Re: Not a 3rd Gen...
OK... the sig is what I have done now & currently run at the track. 3 years ago when the car was just bolt ons with a stock long block - it ran 12.20's
12.20's was: stock internals, LT headers, true duals, UD pulley, LS6 intake, ported TB, 3500 stall, tune, lid, drag radials.
The 10.95 pass is all of what I had before + forged short block, AFR heads, cam, FAST 90mm intake & TB, EWP, 42# injectors, suspension work, 3.73 gears.

Just an update for the naysayers...
10.779 & 10.777 back to back yesterday. Still N/A, still pump gas & drag radials, still being daily driven while I give my 91' some TLC. I'll post pictures of my slips tonight when I get home.

Re: Not a 3rd Gen...
i believe ya, there are lots of 4th gen ls cars where i'm from running around that on motor, there is one that while not a daily driver runs 5.40's in the 1/8th with a 200 shot. But I see it especially with heads and can, but yeah we all like to see car pics.
Re: Not a 3rd Gen...
That is a nice looking/running car. From your trap speed at the big end, I'm convinced your running n/a - and I'd wager an automatic as well.
