I Finally Did it!!! Hit the 12's tonight!!!
Sorry if I may come off dorky!! But I am pretty excited. Last week I posted my new bests since the Hot Cam install!! Well they are getting better!! Tonight at Route 66 I ran a 12.96 @ 106.55 mph!! I was pumped!! It seems this car is still getting faster since the project! It was in the 90's today & very humid. I definately think this fall the car will hit the 12.8's with more MPH when the air is thinner & cooler!!

Congrats. Feels good don't it? When the temp drops in to the 60's you can expect at least 12.7's and three more MPH. At least that is what my car would do going from 90 deg to 60 deg.

Get a Converter, you will see AT LEAST 12.5, but I would expect low/mid 12's with traction.

Thanks Guys! I am saving as I type for a 3200 to 3600 stall. I don't think I wan't to go lower than 3200. Will the stall also help my trap speeds ? I think it would getting the car up there.

The stall will mainly help your ET's. Your Mph will stay about the same.

Thanks '94irocz for the heads up. I am aware of issues bit it seems to be hit & miss. I think that is why no solution yet. Also I heard if you manually shift it it won't happen. I know that PI converters give you a free stall change once I believe. We'll see when the time comes.

My 60's are in the 1.82 - 1.9 range. With me in it it weighs 3695# It feels strong & I have tuning from PCMforless. Someday I may get a dyno tune. The humidity was 89%. We'll see.

I will not agree that a Cammed LT1 car should be over 110, I am just turning 109 at best, but I think I know what the issue is and am working on it.
Get a stall!! Vig 2800 or a ST3500 from Yank, as long as you dont break stall it at the line you will be fine. Just leave off idle, yes, those TCs are expensive but you will not believe the improvements. I had a crappy TC at first and hated it.

Congrats!! The feeling of getting into the 12's is the best I have had. It even beats getting into the 11's as getting into the 12's takes a lot less money!!
12's signify that you have a genuinely fast street car!!

Congrats on the new times!!! I agree with the others, you wouldn't believe how good a stall feels. I have a Vig 2800, LOVE IT. I'm with you on the dyno tune, I need one too.
