RE: how to take down an LS1
I have way less than $3500 in mods. Besides you won't get much of a blower for $3500
I would expect a response like this from someone tearing up the track with those 14sec. E.T.'s

UUhhh... yeah. Why waste all that money when you can invest $3500 on a blower and dust them off reguardless!?!? And no suspension work needed.

Jdaniel, your running 14s with that setup? Full boltons and you had better be seeing low 13s.
BTW back on track, full boltons with headers will take down an LS1 (with a good set of sticky tires). With a terrible launch I was basically not getting pulled on by a ws6 to the top of 3rd gear. The second race with the tires heated up was embarrasing enough for him to "miss third"

From what I am seeing here you are claiming to only be running the 100 shot on the 1/8TH? Please tell me you are joking about these mods and a 12.8x with no N20.

I have yet to run the N2O at the 1/4 mile. My car will run 12.90's all day long on the motor in decent weather. I expect to be in the 11's in the 1/4 with the N2O. I should be at Bowling Geen Ky. for Corral Day on August 14th if anybody wants to see it.

RE: how to take down an LS1
Hey, Jay... before you speak, please know what you're talking about first. My corrected times are about 13.4 to 13.8. When I run its usually about 95 degrees outside with 100% humidity and lets not mention the shape the track is in.
Happy now, buddy?
I have ran an uncorrected time of 13.8 and I usually NEVER run anything over a 14.3
EDIT: And if that list of stuff is less than $3500 then you obvisously must be driving a Fox body and if so then of course you dont because the parts are DIRT CHEAP! Not like todays mustang where you have to pay $600 for a set of cams.
And YES! You can get a good KB twinscrew for $3500 to $4000 installed by yourself of course.
