could i keep with an LS1??
With my mods listed and if i was to get Mac headers and maybe a cut-out and adj. fuel pressure reg., could I be in the same league as an LS1? I seem to think so, but i could be wrong.

Maybe for the 1/8 mile but I doubt it in the 1/4. Of course a lot depends on the driver and the individual car. I would recommend some drag radials too. Of course you have added heavier suspension components and heavier rims and tires which will slow you down too.

My buddy has a 98 z28 m6 I can walk him out the hole but top end he walk by me. My other friend has a 01 ss automatic and last night i beat him by a fender. But like they say It all depends on the driver.

so far you have lots of suspension upgrades but little power upgrades. Headers, AFPR, DR's ( don't launch hard though or you'll be buying a new rear), RR's and maybe a cam and you should be able to keep up with most stock and lightly modded LS1's.
