May '98 issue of GM High Tech got 13.11 @ 107.4 out of their bone stock 6-speed '98 Z-28; 13.07 @ 106.4 with Mickey Thompson DOT Sportsmans. Of course, the car was driven by Evan Smith who is known around the GMHTP and some Ford magazine to be able to drive the hell out of stock rides. He got high 11's out of a stock Viper GTS.

ls1 fbodies are not very consistant on the track or dyno(from car to car not, run to run). I was lucky with my overacheiver. Im sure all cars are like that to a certain degree.

Hey man, use the power of the internet and look it up yourself if you don't believe me.

I think it was R&T that got 13.5 out of the 930 back in the 80s and that was with tiny little 245 mm tires on the rear.

Evan is known to be the man. I think he broke the 14 second barrier with a stock 190 hp V6 Mustang. The man has some serious skills.

Man, I'm an idiot. I knew I was needing a nap when I posted this. This was intended to be a reply to GorkyParky's 98 Z or 98 GT thread.
