Default Re: LT1 compared to L79

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: ORIGLS6</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Pure Stock Drags last month.

Thomas Payne's '66 Chevy II, L-79 4 speed, 4.56 gears. 13.145 @ 107.50
</div></div>
Just for comparison's sake, Owen Simpson did a 12.909 @ 107+ this year at Stanton...and has been in the 12.80s @ 108+...all of this while running an insanely stock [and tired!] LT-1. My gut tells me a full-boogie LT-1 Nova will be coming down the pipe soon...

Payne's '66 = 3,066 pounds
Simpson's '70 = 3,466 pounds
