13.7 is fastest 4th gen F body

slt200mph · 08-04-2009, 02:34 PM

I ran into a guy that said that the fastest time he ever heard of for a stock F body car was 13.7 and that it was impossible for a stock F body to run a ET in the 12s. When stock I ran a 12.96 back 6 or 7 years ago but I have moved since then and do not know where the time slip is. I know there are a bunch of you guys out there who can produce varification on stock F body ETs. Please post up.

PS We are talking about LS1 powered cars.

well there is a loose teminology with that statement, "stock" as in unmodded as delivered from the factory......or stock internals with all bolt ons....
stone stock no bolt ons will NOT run 12s.......
however there are a few bolt on Lt1s that run 12s and even fewer runnin 11s.
personally i have a mild bolt-on Lt1 6spd that runs lo 13s @3000' DA

depending on the DA

Over here in NJ you most certainly can...the DA sometimes dips below -1500.

This LS1tech.com I am referring to a LS1 powered f Body car stock meaning stock with stock tires no DRs no modifications showroom stock condition.

96lt1m6 · 08-04-2009, 06:13 PM

OK to be more specific, Ls1s
1999 formula,A4,lid,DRs,cutout.....13.36 @105 3000'DA
2000 SS,lid, A4,Ls1,3600 stall,DRs... 13.0@107 3000'DA
2002 SS,lid,m6,DRs....13.45@106 3000'DA
these were all the same evening i will bet any of these cars would have run mid12s at Atco,Hrp,Pamona etc.
all depends on the car and DA, we also have a 2.73 A4 unmodded 99z that runs 13.4s

magazine was not specific with"bad air" but they did have to admit who the boss was and still is! lol

ZTwentyAteU · 08-04-2009, 07:25 PM

theres tons of people with "stock" ls1s in the 12s. I had one with JUST a LM2 catback that ran 12.80s.

buddys 98 SS ran 12.96 @ memphis with just longtubes.

If the air is good they will run 12.90s with good traction.

I'm pretty sure I could just tune one and put it in the 12s. 6 speed cars need dr's to do it

benji's_z28 · 08-04-2009, 07:25 PM

i dont know if this technically counts as stock but, they claim stock down to the filter, with mickey thompson DR's. you make the call im just playing devils advocate

Since 1998, a number of folks have run 12's in stock as delivered F-Bodies.

Rob98LS1 · 08-04-2009, 07:55 PM

search through the drag results section i'm sure you'll find a few threads of bone stock 12 second passes. Great driver and a strong 60' is what your looking for.

benji's_z28 · 08-04-2009, 08:06 PM

wow i feel like an idiot lol. i forgot to post the vid. when i said my last statement but Rob already had it there lol.

Rob98LS1 · 08-04-2009, 08:18 PM

oh wow lol didn' t realize we were going after the same video.. i'll take mine down

The 12.69 is a great time but the drag radials disqualify it from the topic of this thread...it needs to be a stock car with no mods and stock tires no drag radials ...thanks for the video.

BAIN · 08-05-2009, 10:01 AM

My bone stock SS A4 ran 13.25

shtnfrds · 08-05-2009, 10:10 AM

I thought of that red SS immediatly once i read this thread.

12.69 with DR's can still be capable of 12's in PURE stock form. point is there are MANY factory stock f-cars that are definatly in the 12's, takes the right driver, day and starts to be inline with the universe.

Striker · 08-05-2009, 10:25 AM

Im going to the track tonight and would love to break 12's. Only mods I have are a SLP lid, P&P TB and a PRO 5.0 Shifter.

Pro Stock John · 08-05-2009, 10:56 AM

Best I ever witnessed was a 13.07 by a local guy with a low option 1999 MN6 SS. He was not beating on it like Evan Smith did, ie. my friend did not slip the clutch out at 4500. The 12.89 run by Evan is completely doable even without mineshaft air though it helps.
