Thanks guys. I was worried about the trap being low. I mean the L98 TPI cars are trapping around that time.
I know about the 1:2 rule, but I didn't want to say it. And I'll get to the plugs and wires, plugs for sure this week. Which ones do you guys recomend? I did good with the AC Delcos 41-919s on my GTP.

It was at Firebird raceway. It has dual cats, maybe both need to be swapped out? No egg smell or anything though.
My bro used his LS1m scanner on my car but it wouldn't read KR. I did a WOT run and the a/f was at .895 towards the end of the run. Why wouldn't it read KR?

I don't know what tire pressure was at. I assume 40 or so. A dude in a Viper let me borrow his gauge to check, but I've never used the type. Has a hose, KPA/PSI, 2 needles, a button. Retarded. I never had a problem with the pen style gauge. I figured he was rich and wanted to get the most expensive elaborate gauge imaginable.
Mine went 14.97 @ 93 when I discovered I had a failing fuel pump. When I fixed that it went about like Z-RATED's car - 14.30's at 95. It took a little work to crack into the 13's.
I ran a 16.3, 15.5, then a 14.9.
Is there any symptoms of a fuel pump thats going bad?
I'm lucky if I get 200 to a tank...
I remember it was hard to start when it was hot. Also, if I did get it running, it would hesitate when I gave it gas and occasionally, it would pop or backfire through the intake. The high fuel consumption is probably caused by a bad O2 sensor. To me, your car seems to be doing pretty well. Like you said in your original post, your 60's could be improved. Put some drag radials on it. I'll bet on a cool day, with a 45 minute cool down, you'll be in the 14.40's to 50's at 95+. Don't let some of the ridiculous posts and numbers get you down. You are about right where you should be.
94 LT1, 3.23s, a4....
60' - 2.04
1/8th - 8.90 @ 83.5
1/4 - 13.760 @101.2
Your not that far off of what a stock LT1 should run. Yes, weather play a big part but it's your 60ft. times that are really lacking. As a quick example, my Z completely stock would run 14.40s at 94mph with a 2.00 60 ft. in the dead of summer. Knock .30 off your 60 ft. and you'll be at the finish line .45 quicker.
Unless you live in the mountains something is wrong.
My LT1's in the order I owned/ran them
1994 auto 2:73 14.2@97
1995 m6 stock 13.9@99
1994 Z28 a4 stock 3:23 13.9@98
1997 TA 2:73 a4 13.7@102 cai
The difference in elevation is so minimal between Firebird and Speedworld that I would not worry about it. Your times are way off. I was able to go 14.3@98 bone stock with a 2.5 60' here. Put some new plugs and wires at the least. See how it goes from there. I recommend MSD wires and NGK TR55 plugs. The plugs are available at Carquest, AZ Power and Sound, or BAP. And yes, the exhaust hitting would cause false knock.
But Lloyd, Joe O, my friend Eddie, some of you guys and vendors, plus Speed Inc. solved the problem.
