I built an LS6 powered monster and it ran 11.28 @ 132mph in the 1/4. It ran 7.4 @ 100mph in the 1/8th. BTW, I had a 930 gearbox and hit the quarter still in 3rd gear! All these figures are on street tires and would most likely be in the high 10's on drag rubber.

Well, mine's not exactly a monster, but it's definitely not stock. Major mods include the 2.7RS six that's currently under construction. Lowered, flared, 18x8's up front and 18x10's out back. Rebuilt the gearbox last year. Carrera front suspension with S calipers. Eric Shea trailing arms with Elephant Racing bushings. Itty bitty Momo steering wheel. It's a start, anyway....

Here's my build thread:

http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...=89636&st=0

The things I would have done different would be to make the downpipe fit a little bit better off of that turbo, and not wasted my money on the intake plenum that didn't fit.

Go to bare metal and do a full ground up restoration instead of cutting corners.

Basically, just throw more money at it, i guess ...

I put 500,000 miles on this monster: a 3.2 six installed into an all wheel drive VW. It doesn't drag race or road race, but goes thru sand, mud and streams like a bad habit (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
