This is old but I was digging for an old post on the MFBA today (from 2001) and found this...

60 : 2.114
330 : 5.930
1/8 : 9.079
MPH : 78.34
1000: 11.800
1/4 : 14.115
MPH : 97.03

In case anyone is curious as to what a stock LT1 pass looks like. My 1/8th was slightly better than I remembered (thought it was 9.1)... pleasantly suprised. (I am looking for the actual slip but after this many years..haha..good luck finding that)..

Cheers.

 

nice to see where a LT1 is about stock, so good driver with good running car could steep into the 13's obviously.

 

i dont know why they couldnt....i used to doubt then i saw one run (exhaust was the only mod)

 

Cool, I used to have a 95' auto Z28 and I was kind of curious what it would have ran. It always felt faster than a 14 second car to me though.

 

a 6 speed lt1 with a similar 60 would trap 100-101 and run a 13.8.-9

 

13.8? seems a little high doesnt it

 

with a great sixty 1.9+ is doable.

 

honestly my mph is lower than any of the LT1 autos that were on the board at that time.... the car would occasionally slip going into 3rd gear....8 days after I made that pass it grenaded on the highway while I was passing a car. It got modded to hell afterwards so I can't say if it hurt me on the top end or not...

 

lt1's are pretty much a drivers race with a well driven new edge. My buddy had a auto lt1 that went 14.1 aswell.

 

It's about DAMN time that someone throws up an actual, common, stock LT1 time.

I've been getting sick of everyone saying that any time a LT1 faces a New Edge, the LT1 always has the big advantage stock to stock.

This proves, that on your 'average day' with an 'average pass' the LT1 is right in the ball park with a well driving New Edge.

I'm not saying that perhaps the 14.1 in the auto LT1 is not a bit better than the normal auto new edge, but everything I've been listening to puts the average lt1 into the high 13's

That 60' is right around what I was cutting with my car the last time out (4.10's & partial exhaust) and I was going about the same ET with 2-3 more mph trap.

But yea, a 6sp should be able to do a bit better.
