I had an LT1 with simliar cam, 3.23's, no nitrous. Went 13.6 on a hot humid day spinning clear to the 60ft. Definetly could have gotten high 12's on a good day with traction.

You guys are kidding right? With those mods, should be very low 12's with decent traction. With some nitrous, easy mid 11's.

I went 12.4 with a HOT cam and full emissions still on it in my 96 WS6. And the HOT cam is no where near as big as that cam.

wow thats pretty impressive for a hot cam. i guess thats about 400hp on crank which should be mid 12's or so

i know its definately gonna be a 12 second car... basically thats a miniram L98 with a big cam and slightly better heads. those combos are easy 12's lol

sweet i think with the 100 shot i would dip into the 11's then with a 383 kit that fall with a bigger cam and heads reported im assuming it would be close to bottom 11's high tens and maybe up the nitrous but i dunno im kinda iffy on upping the nitrous all in all its gonna be alot more fun 2 srive then my ****ty 305 tpi that only went 14.86 @ 97 mph

I'd say low 12s easy too. Get a 3400 stall for that cam, maybe even a 3600. I have a 224/230 cam in my "LT1" and it makes power just about what the cam advertised, 1800 to 5800. A 3000-3200 stall would be perfect for my car though. I have minor head porting and headers and 3.23s.

If i keep the car in the spring, its getting that 3200 stall with either 700r4/3.73s or T-56/4.10s. I'm looking for high 11s on motor and 10s if I spray. My car is quite a bit lighter than stock though.

SFC are a must. LCA's and panhard rod wouldn't hurt. With those 3 mods, I routinely cut 1.6x short times in my TTA with Nittos. That car was just too easy to launch.

With those 3 mods on the WS6, I could cut 1.7x times on Nittos.

Some go to a torque arm and relocation brackets but I didn't. Well I did have an LG Motorsports TA but it didn't do anything in drag racing. Great for brake dive and axle hop on corners though.
