Mid 14's on street tires. Traction is a big factor.

iroc22 is right guys. the 1LE will out launch a standard iroc thanks to revalveds shocks and it will out mph a standard iroc because of it much lighter(ahhh, factory delete options, gotta love 'em).
even with bad hook, i woudl say a stock 1LE willstill hit a 14 flat.

later

Motor Trend did a test of a few 1LE Camaro back when they were closer to being new, and they did not run any faster than a stock version with the same engine/trans combo.

an 89 you are looking anywhere in the 14's really. There is very little consistancy as these cars get older.

My 87 350 ran a best of 14.2 @ 95 before I took it off the road.

About the same as my 91RS w/ac. The extra clear coat might put you a little over thought.

No really my guess would be about 3650lbs. give or take 100lbs.
