I think he means that everyone, including me and 2 others in this thread, buy used parts off him constantly getting us into the 13's, 12's, and 11's cheaper and quicker than most. Personally, I am very thankful for the Akron guys who always help me out, wether it be installs, parts, or just a good time racing and chillin'. Hats off to all of you 
That and being beat by a 12 second truck will motivate you into the 12's, ask Darkhorse.

Re: What does it take to get an LT1 into the 12's?
12.9s were hit by two cars at my local track. Their mods were identical, both running A4s.
4.10 gears
Mail-order Tune (both from madz28 iirc)
Catback exhaust (no cat either) (one was a bullet muffler the other was the SLP LM)
Drag Radials (One had M/Ts and the other Nittos iirc)
I believe one hit 12.91@104 the other 12.97@104. Both had serious 60 foots.
These cars are VERY capable of going 12s. All they need to run mid-low thirteens is a cutout and tires. If you aren't hitting these times, you're DOING SOMETHING WRONG!
With all those mods listed up there, the car SHOULD go mid 12s without a hitch.
Also note that all of the above is meant for sea level corrected times. Those cars ran at a track 30 feet above sea level
