Another Guess MY HP and 1/4 mile time!
Hello everyone,
Long story short, I love cars, not matter what they are. I recently was given a 2001 corvette as bonus from my boss, he moved into a C6 that has blower, and was built nice atomic orange, to match his 69 he has. So he gave me his 2001 with only 21k miles. It’s a Vert, with z51 package, and 3:15 gear options. It’s an auto. I truly love this car, I am into racing and have a 10 hope this year with the chnages I am making to be 9 second Mustang. So I don’t need this thing to be a drag car, I drive it a lot, anytime it’s not raining or snowing. I enjoy it so much, Its light years ahead of my mustang in all around enjoyment. Now that you know my life story I have some questions :eek: My current Mods are
I know many people will be like man, why did you spend all the money and not get a bigger cam, and get a stall, and switch gears. #1. I am a weird. #2 I have a stalled fast race car, one is enough, and I want this thing to drive exactly like it does now, just have more power, when I lay into her. I might only ever race her at the track a few times just to see what it does, that’s it. #3- Money, I don’t have enough to the stall and gears, I wanted it done for this summer. This was the only way. If I hate it and want more, then I’ll have to get new cam, and then go from there. So now FINALLY my questions, and I don’t expect exact just very curious, it’s my first LS1, If you had a mustang told me all your mods, I could rattle off about how much HP, and ¼ you would run.
Thanks for reading my long post, I know I talk a lot, I just love this car. I wish I had it before the stang, Hell I might sell the stang next year and go to town on this car :D |

I wish I had it before the stang, Hell I might sell the stang next year and go to town on this car :D i´d say +400rwhp and should go 12´s whith that stall and gear even low 12´s , all depends on how that setup work on the lower rpms.. and what you can get it fast (out of the hole) trap speed wil be 116-118 maby more :thumbs: good luck baezi |
The stock converter stalls at 1300....maybe.
so it's going to be lazy until about 3000rpm. That will be the limiting factor..... I think it could go high 11's though. Ron |

Look at my car and my mods -- very similar to yours--I have apprx 400 RWHP and i estimate yours to be similar---I do have 3.42 gears--from a Z06 take-off and a 3000 stall
My guess is that you will have plenty of HP and traction will become your weak point My cars best N/A is in the low 12's and that's with MT drag radials and a 3000 stall !! Hot calif day with average air density With a stock 1300 stall and street tires don't expect to match that--and sorry 11's aren't realistic--- GOOD NEWS don'tbe afraid of Mustangs---Although on paper they make some higher HP numbers but at the track they just don't have enough TQ to be quick---I can't tell you how many "super 500 HP Mustangs " I've put on the trailer with my 400 RWHP C5 !!! |
