Thats good for the motor and transmission!:p

I would say 12.8-13.1 if you can get some mad traction with that 125 shot.

yup i know i thought of that as and after i did it......
car has a bad traction problem but pulls up top very well ,

th guy i raced was running 106-108 in his t/a

oh and the motor has 4k miles on it ....
:( poor aod i think i am wanting a excuse to put a c-4 and a 3500 in it

I have a faily stock 302.....TFS stage 1 cam, 1.6RR's, full exhaust with a NOS dry 125 shot and i did 13.2@ 107, that was with lotsa of wheel hop and 900 psi in the bottle :(, i dont think its too bad for someone that cant drive and for example a buddy of mine runs 12.6@108 and im one sec in my mph behind him!! :D Good Luck!!

i hear you i just hate knowing that i have to spray it to keep up with a stock ls1:mad: , i really hope for a better time but that is
all i can do is hope... the same guy i raced my buddy raced he has the same mods as i except it is a 5.spd car and no b cam.... and he ran 13.2@106.60 mph with a 100 shot... he lost to the t/a by a car and a halph... he is running sportsman pro's and hooks very well io am still on radials and spun in to 2nd gear... and that was on the 75 shot....:D i will find out sat night when i go to the track and will post back

wish me luck and hope that pushrods and connecting rods don't get sent into orbit lol:(

You need spray to beat a stock LS1, regardless of what the LS1 boys on this site, before the bottle i did fairly well against the STOCK ones, the bottle just made me not want to race the stock ones anymore!! :D 2800lb coupe on a 125 shot!! :D

[slimpickens]

yup primarily stock has a lid cutout, that is it ... it is an auto car as well:confused:

I guess all the slow LS1's are from Mesquite!! :D
