Thanks, that's good to know. My boy has a 98 Z, with a LS6 intake,ported TB, Strange 12, and some other bolt-on goodies, and he thinks 12s are way out of his reach. I keep telling him that his LQ9 will put him there, he just breaks everything before we can ever get it to the track lol.

Now get me some times from your shortwide ;) lol

Honstley for bolt on's he will go faster with the ls1 now after that the 6.0 will win h/c/i ect. He will be in the 12s no doubt got 5 friends with ls1 f bodies. All ran 13.0-13.4 really really close to stock.

The rcsb I had ran 14.7s at 93 mods are CAI, Muffler delete and a pos programer.

The sleeper runs in the high 10s need more passes to get it lower hopefully get the ex cab record. MPH is there just need to get it to
launch.

Since there is some car talk on here, figured I'd post up my Girlfriends 1999 Z28

Mods

-Longtube 1 7/8 headers
-X pipe with spiral flow mufflers
-SLP lid
-billet specialty rim on street tires

Car is factory 3.23 gear with the 26in street tires on the billet 15's. Car feels like it short shifts on the 1-2 , could use a tune with shift points bumped up. These car are not hard to make fast..BONE STOCK it went 13.5 @ 102 so the headers and lid with lighter rims made a decent gain ...tune would pick her up another .1-.12 I bet

She doesn't have to be down with it, just mention something that COULD help with gas mileage and they think its worth it!

My Camaro project hit 12s this weekend; 12.9 @ 106.

It's a 1998 Z28 Camaro.

Mods include weight reduction (400 lbish)
Nelson Order Mail Order Tune
Free Mods (EGR and Air Pump Delete)
No Muffler
SLP Lid
And SUPPOSEDLY there is a top secret mild cam in there from LG Motorsports, but I have my doubts that the previous owner wasn't full of BS.

No headers on it yet, kind of just messing around with the 5.7 untiil I swap it into my Son's El Camino.

That's awesome! Congrats on the run. I have been wanting to build a 66 el camino LS car for 3 years now, but everyone I have found is a total sh!t box. Ohh well one of these days

Really diggin' for some details!
They are just 241's, not the greatest head...
And no slicks!!!
Like I said, all street tire, and a big heavy one at that; 275/45/20 on Tahoe LTZ OE 20's all around.
Kind of want more gear though, like 4.11's maybe but I'm not gonna bother at this point.

He man can't be a proven combo if the parts list doesn't add up ;) but thank you for your cooperation on your setup, how about the cam? You can pm me that info, I won't tell anyone. How is your mpg with the setup

Im hoping for 12s next month when track opens but not sure it'll make it. 02 ext cab 5.3 4l80e 3000 stall 216/220 4.10 150 shot on 28 slick or radial. Kinda worried how the 80e will do ET wise

the 80e has a better 1st-2nd ratio(2.48-1.48 as compared to 3.06-1.62) and has been know for people go slightly faster on the track
