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.

 

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

 

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

 

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.
