Can it be done?

 

sure with some good tires and top-notch driving in great air at low altitude.

 

Your best bet would be real sticky tires (ET Streets) and a well prepped track. Most stock LT1's with street tires run around 14.0

 

Your car would have to be a "factory freak" but I mean I guess with the right tires and conditions and your rear end would hold it could be done. But to be honest I really don't see it happening. You would need to be a GREAT driver and everything else would have to be perfect. Hope it works out for ya though. Let us know if it does. Best of luck!!

 

I ran a 13.76 the first time at the track... when the only mod was a cutout on the exhaust... and that was with a 2.4 60' mark...

 

Awesome, I know its possible and I was just getting more info to prove someone wrong

 

yea, but you have a ws6
that has like intake and exhaust(?) on it already from the factory
it makes it easier to get those times with that
a stock z28 with stock intake and exhaust...it would definately be hard to do unless given the most ideal conditions
it also depends on what your idea of stock is
i think stock means showroom stock but some people think it can be weight reduced, different tires, etc.

 

My buddy hit 13.75 @ 98 mph, 2.0 60' time running on BFG DR's with his '97 Z28 M6 . His car is 100% BONE STOCK, with the exception of a B&M "Ripper" shifter. That's it. Funny thing is, he ran a 13.8x @ 100 mph on another day at the track!? Oh, and the same day he ran 13.75 is also when I got my best 13.02 @ 107.

The driving/driver definitely makes a difference though. I thought I could shift pretty quick 'til I was in the car with my friend. Swear to god, this guy can shift faster than an auto!!

 

I see it as being highly possible given the right car with the right driver.
There were LT1 cars from the factory that didn't have Power Windows, Power Locks, Power Mirriors, T-Tops, Air Conditioning, etc. If you got a Stripper and you can drive... That time shouldn't be too hard to get.

 

i have manual everything besides locks and i got a hard top, do u think that would help my time out compared to a all pwr z w ttops?? if so, how much of a difference
what do u think my z would be running w my weak mods in my sig

 

I could be wrong, but I thought Johnny Huskins(sp?) that used to be with GMHTP magazine ran a 13.6 in a stock auto LT1 Formula or Z. Not 100% sure, but that was a few years ago.

 

13.76 sounds right, but something's wrong with that 60' figure. Timeclock probably messed up that number, I've seen that happen before. 2.4 is a godawful launch. To get into the 13's with an LT1, you need a good launch, at least 2.1

 

Nope, that was the 60' time... I trapped 102.8 on that run...

That was when I still didn't know how to drive the car very well, and launched very poorly, seeing it was the first time I'd ever been down a 1/4 mile track...

 

Good running 6spd and a great driver yes

 

My friend's mom has a '94 Camaro Z28, A4 and it ran a 13.6 with street tires on it, completely stock with around 80k miles. I think it was a combo of good driver and good weather.
