ls1 Trans Am Automatic 1/4 mile time?

[violator6090]

Anyone know what the 1/4 mile time for a auto ls1 trans am would be and 0- 60 mph time?

[Ilovefirebirds]

Well i know that the 0-60 time for a 6-speed ls1 is around 5.3 so i am gussing the auto time would be no more than 5.7 or so. On 1/4 mile times.....well i know that 6-speed LS1 runs anywhere near from 13 to 13.5 but i am sure auto isn't much more. Hope this helps

It all depends on how you drive your car, depends on the transmission type and mods.

[z06transam]

actually the automatic is quicker than the standard shift. so the 0- 60 time is quicker than 6 speed and it will be quicker in the the quarter mile too

[violator6090]

are you sure that is true z06tansam? cause you cant get the same kind of launch with an automatic as u can with stick

Im going with Z06 on this one. The automatic while having higher gears (3.23 compared to the 6 speeds 3.42), the automatic has a WAY better 1st gear ratio, and just going to 60 you only really need 1st gear, sometimes second depending on how hard you wanna run your car(for automatics anyway). I have the 4 speed automatic in my car and my 1/4 time was 13.6 at around 105 mph(dunno exact number) BUT that was in Mississippi in 95 degree weather with 97% humidity which are very undesireable track conditions. As far as I have seen, there is a wide range of 0-60 times, but the ones I see most often have the
A4 0-60 at 5.3 and the M6 0-60 at 5.5. Hope this helps

sweet....now that i just got 3.73 put in from the 2.73 and the hypertech power prog III i am flying

Hell ya. Changing the gear is one of the most cost effective ways to make your car VERY noticeably faster. With the programmer ontop of that a low 13 maybe even a high 12 on a good day will be obtainable. Im guessin that your TA isnt a WS6 if it came with 273 gears (my comment above about A4s having 3.23 and M6 having 3.42 was assumin it was a Ws6) What year is your car? With the programmer i would expect around a 15 HP and Ft/lb of torque gain, and with the lower gear, I think your gonna be able to get in a low 13 all day long.

its 98 first of the ls1 in the fboides and no its not the ws6 but i opened up my air intake to perform like one. I think the 98 was the only year to come stock with the 2.73 in the automatic. I feel a tremendous difference now with the 3.73 its awesome. However, my mechanic told me that i have a broken trans mount...which isnt too big of a deal but does anyone know if that is the reason why my car is jumpin when it changes gears? and when i put it into drive

Dude..calm down and back off. Sheeesh. Chill out. So your LT4 has 458hp....

1/4 mile times for stock LS1s A4s. 13.5-13.9@102-105 depending on many things. Final Drive ratio, track conditions, launch, weather, etc. I have seen 2 bone stock(paper air filter and all) with 3.23 gears run 13.5@104/105. Both at San Antonio Raceway off of I-10 east of San An.

0-60 I think was in the 5.3-5.5 ranges....about the same if not a little quicker then a 6 speed(depending on drivers of both cars and their launches).
