I'd say if he's got headers, exhaust and a chip he also probably has a CAI and if he failed to mention he had a pair of slick then yes, I say it's possible in excellent weather.

Definitely. 13.60s isn't exactly mind-numbingly fast.

Def. possible. Those cars were choked up from the factory. Respond well to a tune, headers, and CAI.

thought you said he had headers? there is no way he is getting to 13.5 on 18" street tires and no headers. he will never hook. unless he has slicks for just the track he is not gonna achieve 13.5 without something major.

A stock 86 automatic with 235hp/330tq and the 2.73 rear at 32xx lbs was probably a low 14 second car at best.

13.5 and lower is possible with the right combination of mods. Headders, intake, exhaust, gears, and tune would really wake it up.

If, and the key word here is IF, he is truly running 13.5... don't be surprised if he beats you. I really don't see your car running any better than 13.5. It's essentially a bone stock 99 LS1. That means no LS6 intake and your flowmaster exhaust isn't flowing any better than stock. Also, 19's don't help your cause any.
