Easiest way to run low 12's
 

Well I am selling the LT1 for an LS1 and I am just wondering the best mods to do to run low 12's. Hopefully I will find a M6, but if the price is right I will take an auto. Thanks guys.

ATI Procharger and some sticky tires. :D

lid ~ $80
cutout ~ $30
Hooker Long tube headers and off road pipe ~ $700
ported maf and throttlebody = free, check out installuniversity.com
3.73 or 4.10 gears ~ $400 installed.
LS6 intake ~ $350 on pre 01 models, 01-02 models you get one stock

That should get you low 12s easily. Just remember that you will need the proper set of tires to match.

Heads and cam. Nuff said :bow:

Depends upon your defintion of low 12s ... see sig for how I did it with an A4 ... With a M6 you'll need to beef up the clutch and rear end to handle the stick tires - DOT slicks - that you will need to launch it ...

Good Luck

If all you see are low 12s with those setups, your driving is seriously flawed.

I thought we were talking "easiest." Sure, a 421 CID stroker setup would easily run low 12s...but why not just do it with bolt-ons?

the easiest way is to just copy my mods;) ;)

Well, it doesn't look very hard to make them run low 12's. I guess I will just go with the basic bolt-ons and then maybe do head and cam after that. Thanks guys.

I went high 11's/low 12's with mac headers (ory), lid/filter, 4.10's, pro 5.0 BFG drag radials,back seats out and jack spare out.

The easiest and cheepest way is Nitrous. ;)

Thats the damn truth right there......

Sorry everyone.............I've got the obvious solution that all of you missed.

Just buy a proven 12 sec Z28!! LOL ;) :p

the fastest and easiest way would be nitous no doubt. BUT i would suggest an auto w/ a nice stall, gear, long tubes and bolt ons.

I thought about an auto but I have had one for so long that I want an M6. Just more fun to drive than an auto. Plus I found an 99 SS with 32k miles loaded for 14k, M6...soo. The only thing I am worried about with the manual is the rear end.
