Went to the track with new setup (is this right)?
I just got doing a rebuild to my LT1. In the 1/8 mile when it was stock it ran 9.4. I put an eagle 355 rotating assy. in it. Pocket ported the heads a very little bit myself, Milled the heads, comp pro mag 1.6 rockers, 918 springs (ls1 valve spring setup), xe230/236 .544/.555 112 cam, stock tranny (slipping and hitting the rev limiter on 1-2 and 2-3 shifts) , Slp 2800 converter, 3.43 gears. 30lb SVO injectors.
I was running stock bald street tires at 32 psi and not spinning one bit. Here are my new times:
2.027 60 ft
8.569 1/8mi
83.37 mph
It was 95 degrees out, 70% humidity, 400ft above sea level.
The main thing I am worried about is its not shifting right even after the dyno tune. However I put new gears in since then. 3.43 from 2.73
I think with the shifting fixed and at night it would run a 8.2
Are my times on par with what they should be.

Im running that exact 1/8 mile time and MPH and a 2.0 60' with the mods in my sig. Weird!
Ends up for me coming out to a 13.2 @106 for me. My track is 3100' above sea level though.

Seems slow to me, My best 1/8th is 8.356@84.45mph with a 1.917 60'. Mods in sig. My best 1/8th trap is 85.6mph, so your times are definatly off. I would get your tranny fixed then run it again.
