Welcome to AF.
Hell of a way to start it off here.

460 RWHP outta an LS1 with stock heads?? Yeah, it is do-able. Not all that friendly to drive though. Compression probably needs bumped up and the cam has to be huge. Possible flycutting of stock pistons may be in order.

Is your LS1 car an auto or a 6-speed?

I actually have been browsing thrue the threads for a few years. Its just that when I first got into the seen the misconseptions that people posted when I asked question took me to routes I didnt need to go thrue learning from mistakes made thrue bad advice.

Wasnt trying to be a jerk its just that people would probably prefer reality rather then assumptions.

Texas Speed built my motor, and I have one of their nastiest cams.
How is your 10 bolt still in one piece running low 11's?? You shouldn't be able to 60 foot well enough with that rear to get that ET.
Those cars are complete shop cars. They are made to perform perfectly. Your average garage builder isn't going to see those ET's or those dyno numbers as they don't have the resources the shop has.
