Is this possible?
An LS1 with a 3200 stall and catback exhaust with slicks running a 12.70? Thats all that is done to it. Is this at all possible it sounds like 
to me. But I just figured i'd ask you LS1 guys before I said anything. Thanks.

Lid
Yank ST3500 TC
Free mods
And an SSRA
When I ran 12.15 @ 110.8
So a 12.70 is pretty weak.

Re: Is this possible?
what year car? that's gonna make some difference too. it will be easier to run those numbers on a 2001-2002 car with the ls6 intake and better exhaust, etc.
My heavy convertible ran 12.89 with the mods in my sig. And it's a 99 with the stock ls1 intake, etc. I don't think it's unreasonable at all to run a 12.70.
(BTW, I think Al's secretly running methanol in his gas tank)

My dad's full weight 2000 A4 convertible ran 13.1 with only a lid.
Put a converter, exhaust, and some slicks on that car, and it'll easily do 12.70
So yes, its entirely possible.

As said, it's easily possible...not saying that every LS1 F-body with those mods would run easy 12s...but plenty of them could.
A high stall and sticky tires will do wonders for autos.

It's a 98, so no LS6 intake or anything else ...completly stock besides stall converter and SLP quad exhaust, no weight reduction or anything. This is in IL too. Union Grove raceway.

Re: Is this possible?
a stalled auto LS1 is NO JOKE. even with everything else stock, they will run hard.
check sig....12.teens @ 110-111 all day on drag radials with litte more than a full exhaust, a lid, converter, and gears. and that was on the old converter. i'm hoping for an 11 second motor pass this fall before i crack open the blue bottle.
