Question 60' times with stock FD suspension???

What is considered a decent 60' time on our stock FD suspension? Basically no mods to the suspension whatsoever other than tires.

Has anyone achieved <1.5 on the stock suspension?

Reason I ask is that I will going LS1 in the next few months and just need an idea on what kind of 60' I should strive for.

Id suggest upgrading the LSD unit ( KAAZ or Cusco ) , a diff brace, and looking into some upgraded rear axles if you plan on doing alot of drag launches. The stock FD rear is very strong, but with that power and torque, hooking up at the strip will most likely break something quickly. As long as everything else is in order, with a good launch on some decent drag radials, I have seen 1.6 60's out of an FD.

How were you launching fox? I would think a 5000 dump will get it done.

I don't live too far from kaaz usa so i will be getting mine there as i wouldn't want to worry about a broken rear.

My plans on my LS1 will be to run 9's with a trex cam, jtr longtubes, n1 duals, asp pulley, ported tb and a 150 shot.

Did you spray on your time on your sig, fox?
