Ok guys i went back to the track after a dissapointing first couple runs with the LT1. My previous times were 13.76 @ 103 MPH. Obviously i was dissapointed by that so i had to better it.

This is my new best:

2.22 60'
13.52 @ 105.27 MPH

Yeah, my et i know can be a lot lower with good 60 and some sticky tires. im more concerned with my trap speed. I changed my shift point to roughly 6200. I believe my tach reads about 200 rpms high since my idle is set at 850 and my tach shows 1050. These tachs are notorious for that anyhow.
As for trap speed, i believe under its current conditions im getting all im gonna get out of it. Obviously a new intake routing ect will help out conisderably, 150 degree temps from the radiator arent a recipe for power.
Next year i will try to get it on a dyno and have it tuned that way, maybe some sticky tires also.

What do you guys think about these times?
