Yeah... thats what I was thinking also. Im not scared. LOL I will run one any day of the week.
Yall must have some slow cars out your way...you should go to Houston, I heard it's the f-body capital of the world. You have to run mid 12's here just to stay up with most street cars, and we, by no means, have fast street cars. Hell, why do you think I bought nitrous? I THOUGHT I had a quick car, until I realized everyone else was just as quick as me.

I hear ya. I think you'll be the first one here to actually run 12's on motor, at least in a mod motor. Ahh, FI. The fun you'll have. At least we can then continue our **** talking on who has the fastest car. My juiced LS1 or your blown/turbo GT. [8D]

Well im about to be out of the Military and if my new job pays well enough then there is no way that 98LS1 would be able to hang. My plans are as follows...

5.0 stroker forged, balanced and blueprinted.

Kenne Bell 2.2L 9-20 psi

Good tranny (havent made up my mind on that one yet)

31 spline mosers and a new carrier with 4.10's

ET DRAGS BABY!!!

Im hoping to be somewhere in the mid to low 10's with that setup.

Meh, gimme about 2-3 years and you can try me.. it's gona be a while..


Stroked 383 fully forged
ATI procharger 15-20 PSI
AFR heads
Built 6 speed
Lots of extras.

I already have most of the driveline done. It's just going to take time and $$$$$... and some more $$$$$







It would be cool to run some decent mustangs... and 98's LS1. They need a good 1/4 around charlotte. We don;t have one that close and the 1/8 at mooresville blows.

damn you must be retarded to say an ls1 vette runs mid 14's@ 114-115 wtf? first of all with a decent driver those things should be running 13.3's. But any car that is trapping around 114-115 is capable of running mid to high 12's with the right traction and no extra power mods.
That driver must have been the worst ****ing driver in the untied states seriously.

I love all the "LS1" geniuses in here. He was kidding. We all know what LS1 Vettes run.

Where is my sarcasm meter picture?

i think the quotes go around geniuses, not the LS1. you should probably fix that.
