Who said that? I said I know a LOT that have, but not ALL (mine didn’t :doh: ).

BTW, my very FIRST post said “that’s about the same as 4th Gens.” I didn’t say exactly the same. I don’t think any of the first batch of '98 LS1s delivered to magazines went 12s at all. As I said before, in the hands of a real drag-strip hero, with a well prepped track, and with a few thousand miles to break in I think we’ll see a bit better than that 12.9.

The point of the post was to counter all the comments about 5th Gens only going mid-13s.
