Cam/bolt on only LT1 going 10's???
I just read a thread from someone on here runnings high 10's with only boltons and a cam in an lt1. Many people were congratulating him on it too. Is this true??? Unbelieveable. I hope I can do that

That is fantastic if someone is doing that... Of course I find it really hard to believe but on the internet all things are possible. Also, if you take out enough weight it could certainly be done.

Neil my car is light but not ls1 light. Last time I weighed my car it weighed 3327 with me in it. I ran 11.40 116.59 with a 1.48 short time at that weight in 60 degree weather. Thats with stockheads na. When i had it dynoed Geoff at Thunder said it was way lean but it runs well in the heat that way. Next time I get some really cold weather I will richen it up and I believe i can run 11.20's how it sits. Frank95z

Frank, i'm curious about something...
what is your definition of stock heads?
never been removed stock heads, stock eliminator "stock" heads or something else "stock" heads?

In Sept. 2004 High Performance Pontiac i just got It has 97 firehawk that ran 10.29@129 in the Stock Eliminator class.
This with stock heads(valve job only) and a stock lift but higher duration cam, And a stock 48mm TB. It made 449rwhp like this
More a race car than a street car but i was impressed
