Again, back to the original question....
the slowest I've seen a magazine clock an LT1 f-body was when they first came out in '93. Motor Trend got the Z somewhere in the mid to low 6s (0-60), and in the 1/4 mile, 14.6. That was with a 6 speed too. We would think they had a lemon, but they also had a '93 T/A...was similar 0-60, but the 1/4 mile was 14.8!! I don't know what on earth they drove, but either the driver was absolutely terrible, or they had 2 pre-produciton lemons.
Actually, I recall Road and Track (which I do not consider reliable) clocking a ragtop A4 T/A, back in '95, at a 15.1 in the quarter mile, rougly high 6s in the 0-60 sprint. Top speed was ~145. Now that is ridiculous.
That's why I had to clock my own car with the G-tech...and at the strip. You can't trust the mags all the time. So back to the original question, buy or borrow a g-tech to test and see your own car.
