Ok, I my '95 LT1 is stock and I have rebuilt 4L60E using the Pro-Built Road Racing kit and a new 2000 stall converter. How will this affect my 1/4 mile time? I have 3.23 gears and I've never taken it to the track, btw.

It is... the FAQ is wrong.

100 SS's w/ LT4's, and about 14 or so Firehawks. All coupes, all 6-speed I believe. The plan was for more, but they never pumped them out with the insane mark-up on MSRP.

It won't. If you've never been to the track you have no baseline to compare it to... and there is no way you'll get within a second of the cars best ET without a a few nights of racing.

As for a 2000 stall, that's not much more than stock but's fairly common... do a search here and you'll probably find guys with the same set-up who have ET's posted.

115 what, mph?
some cars were speed limited due to optioning of that car, the majority of f-bodies (4th gen) are capable 155mph+

I believe it was 29 Firehawks, but i could be wrong. The speed limiter of the car depended on the tire option I believe. Some Z's came with 115 mph speedos like the V6's and the crappy tires and 99% came with the Z rated rubber and do the full 160mph these cars are capable of.

325 ft-lb @ 2400 rpm.
