the quickest lt1 n/a time i know of and/or believe is 10.80ish, I believe Jordan Musser. Then there is Travis Lindelle, he has gone 10.83.

lt1dave already knows my thoughts on the matter, lol!

Jordon's best time was a 10.80@130... And aeven sprayed it once and ran a 6.4@112. But that was 1.5 cars ago for him.

He's now switched to the dark side.. ACK! LS1's..

Taner sprays his car, he is the fastest M6 car period (NA or PA) as far as i know anyway

once i get the tune done and the suspension dialed in, i shouldnt be too far away from 10's on the stock bottom

couple folks have told me i should be turning over 120mph in the 1/4, car weighs just shy of 3400lbs with me in it and i have alot of stuff left to remove still

speculation sucks tho and i probably just jynxed myself

i imagine there will be a few others this year with M6 cars that will be low low 11's also on the stock bottom end

wow i didn't know Jordan bought an LS1 ... very cool!

then i guess in my eyes Travis has the current fastest LT1 all motor m6 but then again i could be wrong.

quickest PA car yes, n/a in my dreams, lol!!!!

Tanner..everyone got a loooong way to catch you. I believe your safe for a long time. So travis is the fastest right now with a 10.83 or is lt1 dave the fastest? What do you mean that lt1 dave knows your thoughts on that..hmmmm...please do tell..

Either way I plan on blowing both numbers out of the water . Well..at least I'm gonna try. That MPH is gonna be harder for my little 355 though.

96LT14u2Nv - right now I'mworked LT1 heads/ unported lt1 intake on a 355. I'm keeping the 355 and staying gm heads but switching to some lt4 heads/worked lt4 intake. We will see how it does.

all i "heard" was that his car ran solid low low elevens, very respectable! then he ripped off a 10.71 and somehow picked up 5 mph hour. just what i heard. I don't know if the source has any reason to doubt him, but like i said, just what i heard, maybe he and i could line up at an event some day, would be kinda cool! spray vs. spray or motor to motor. i think it would be a great race to watch

He never ran a 10.71...his best was a 10.765. Timeslip:

1/4 ET: 10.765
1/4 MPH: 131.75
60': 1.600

There were rumors that he sprayed, but his nitrous setup wasn't working and hadn't been since he dynoed mid-summer last year. He had added one of those BMR drag bars and it was a cold, cold day, so that's probably where the gains came from.

And you're right, you guys would be a hell of a match up.
