I'm gonna catch hell for this one. There are several companies out there that make conversion kits to put in an LT1 from a camaro or corvette. A stock LT1 with about 280-300hp will put you at 13.0 at the track.

dcs4,

You should be hung from your ********* for asking such scornfully mundane question!

fstrnyou,

You should also be hung from a hook in your bung for answering to such blasphemy!

BTW, what does the LT1 kit run?

I'm only curious... Really I am.

A stock LT1 puts out more like 250...A stock LS1 puts out 300.

The lowest rated LT1 was the 265 horsepower iron head version from the '94-'96 Caprice Classic, Impala SS, Buick Roadmaster, etc.

The '93-'95 Camaro Z-28 and Firebird Formula LT1s were rated at 275 horsepower, which was bumped up to 285 in '96-'97. The '96-'97 Camaro SS and Firebird WS6 Firehawk were rated at 305 horsepower with a limited edition 335 horsepower LT4 available in '97 only.

The '92-'96 Corvette LT1 was rated at 300 horsepower, with a limited edition 330 horsepower LT4 available only in the 1996 Grand Sport model.
