Chris was pretty close on stock 1/4 times. My '99 T/A went 13.5 @ 102 all day long with just a catback. Weighed 3550lbs, and runnin on 245/50/16 GSC's (crappy short times). The 2002's had a bit more balls, so I'd expect 13.2-13.4 @ 103-105mph most likely thru an automatic.

Yep. The bald guy had it right.
Mine is a 98 the weakest year for the Ls1 in an Fbody bone stock ran a best of 13.6 with free mods and a lid 13.3.

you are talking of 7k using the stock tach then it is almost always WAY off.
Plus a few shots at 7k and I would love to see your valvesprings!

Do you own a Torch Red FRC and tremble every time you drive under I75 on Hwy 60 and look in your rearview mirror? If so you are suffering from what is known as Cobraphobia.

well i dont know how to explain it ... but i have witnesses and ive done it at least 4 or 5 times when i first got the car .. havnt missed a gear in quite some time now though. but the real point of the story is my 5.0 keeping up with a badass car, good death by me, considering it's a $3,000 car with about $700 in performance parts.
