Is he auto or manual '96 TA cause didn't the manuals get better gears.
I'm not sure at what you're setup would run, but I think if he's an auto you'll take him.

You can take him without a problem. I have a 383 stroker with roller rockers and a very small cam with stock heads, exhaust manifolds, cats, and TB and I have beaten LT1's without a problem. You have a lot more done to your car than I have done to mine so I think you'll kill him If he really is stock. Stock LT1's run anywhere from 13.8-14.5 most are in the 14's.

He said that he ran a 13.2 , I was thinking that that was a bit fast for stock, but I guess it could be true . Those are pretty darn quick cars.

If he's running 13.2 he's lieing to you about being stock or he could be trying to scare you by telling you a false time. Even the WS6 Ram air 6spd LT1 Trans Am's couldn't do that stock, the LS1 is a totally different story, those can run 12's with a good driver.
