Your basic 01-02 LS1 stock should run low 13's, some even cracking into 12's.
LOL... I know of 2 ls1's in my area that can't better a 14.0... and that is with multiple drivers and TRACTION.......

if that was my car though, I would have taken it back cause they all should run mid to low 13's from the factory....

Sucks for them, but If its a 98-00, i dont doubt it. Multiple drivers doesnt mean anythng to me except haveing a bunch of people try to race a car that they dont have experience driving.

I know what my car runs, i know what my g/f's car runs, i know what most other LS1's run. Good enough for me.

Don't believe me then fine, no sweat off my sack. If you wanna find out, you are more then welcome to come to south fla and ill show ya.

I never said all LS1's, I said your typical 01-02 should be mid to low 13's.

And if a fast LS1 aint chit to you, dont go home crying when you get waxed by one, cause you think they run 14's stock.

When you are in FL, drop a line, i love to dance.

Well, you wont be leaving with my money, thats for damn sure....

As for me narrow minded? Seems to me i am the most qualified person here having owned both a Lightning and LS1. If there is any narrowmindedness here, maybe its in your first post when I said MOST 01-02 SHOULD run low to mis 13's stock and you replied with a LOL because you knew of 2 guys that ran 14.0's.

Not a LS1 god, I just know my way around more vehicles than a L.

i have to chime in here because i too have owned a 99 Trans-Am, an 01' Lightning an 02' Firehawk and an 03' Cobra, so i guess i would be qualified to discuss this LS1 war. By the way the cars i kept are the Cobra and the Lightning for good reasons too. Phucking check engine light on those damn F-bods get annoying!! Like i stated earlier, SVT is the way to go.

I bet having your car recalled every new model year gets annoying too......

I would still like to know why your Hawk only went 12.8 with a 100 shot? What were all your mods... and your 60' and mph?
