im not familiar enough with the newer vettes to know what it takes to put an LS1 vette into the low 12s...but i would venture to say that it doesnt take more than a cam and some head work?
Lifting the valve covers is not neccessary, just some choice bolt-ons.
i was being safe...at least mentioning what i thought would SURELY beat one...
nanaki, i dont doubt that with just intake/exhaust a cobra puts down huge numbers, but we have seen many times that 425hp doesnt always equate to a very fast car. hell, i read somewhere that it took a guy 200 more whp just to run 12.20s..

now where could you have possibly heard that
Hey what times are you running Nan.. our mod list looks.. oddly similar.

Gratz on the vette. I was heavily looking for one when my current car came on the market. If the price wasnt damn near perfect I probably would still be searching for my vette... Still considering a 3rd 100% useless in the winter car and picking up my uncles completely redone 79.

i actually like them.....thats what i was tryin to say. they WORK on that car. no huge offset or deep dish. just normal, chrome wheels. they look like an expensive wheel. i love black sports cars. so sexy.

and your 'Stang DOES look sad on the street...
