10.82 @ 124.25...silly LT1. ;)
It finally happened.
Up until now my best run has been an 11.04 @ 122 with 60's in the 1.55 range. 2 months ago I blew a head gasket, so I tore it all apart, replaced the gaskets with custom Cometics, installed a UMI k-member, a-arms, upper arms, QA1s, and 275# springs, and replaced the 15x8 Welds and ET Streets with 295/55/15 MT drag radials on 15x10s.
Weather was nice and cold, but the track prep wasn't the best. My expectations were fairly low, so here goes the first run.
60' 1.43
330' 4.35
1/8 6.85 @ 98.08
1000' 9.02
1/4 10.84 @ 123.61
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjgdU28z_HI
Then...
60' 1.45
330' 4.37
1/8 6.86 @ 97.94
1000' 9.04
1/4 10.87 @ 123.4
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SuhQkj2DCis
And the last and best run of the day...(pardon the braking mishap in the beginning...line lock didn't hold the front wheels at first, hah)
60' 1.43
330' 4.35
1/8 6.84 @ 98.54
1000' 9.002
1/4 10.82 @ 125.25
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qaqQ8B1WbzA
I was absolutely floored with these results. I would have been happy with a high 10.9x, but to almost break into the 10.70s completely caught me off guard. It's amazing what smart planning, good parts, and good air can do for you. For those that aren't familiar with the mods of the car -
Forged 383, AI 200cc ported stock castings, 237/242 custom grind AI stroker cam, ported stock intake manifold, 42# injectors, 1.6s, Cloyes 2x roller, EWP, Canton pan, Melling pump, LPP headers, Hooker cat-back with e-cutout, Ford 9", 3.90 gears, Performabuilt Level 2 transmission, 4000 Performabuilt stall, Weld Pro-Stars, and all the other miscellaneous crap. This is a street-driven, hydraulic roller car. No fancy aftermarket head castings, no single plane intake, transbrake, etc. No nitrous, all motor.
HUGE thanks to Ron and Phil at www.advancedinduction.com, UMI, Bryan Herter at www.pcmforless.com, Tom Snyder ( www.snyder-fab.com), and Gil Davis Racing Engines.
YEEEEEE HAAAAAAW MOTHER F**KER!

So you swapped in an LS1? LT1's dont run faster then 12's, 383 or not.
In all seriousness, congrats on the run man!!

No such thing as a fast LT1 anymore.  There were a few LS1 guys at the track with some pretty serious setups and they had a hard time believing what was happening.
