Default 70 LT-1 how fast

Here's something some of you may find interesting. Especially you deuce owners. In the very early seventies a friend of mine bought a LT-1 out of a wrecked 1970 Z-28 and put it in his corvette. A few years ago he put the motor in a 1969 Camaro with a 4 speed, nine inch slicks, headers and 4.11's or 4.56's. Now this motor has never been opened up and retains the original, camshaft, intake manifold, and 780 Holley. Anyway the thing runs 12.30's but I forget the MPH. I think that's really impressive and says alot about the performance potential of these engines. Correct me if I'm wrong but I want to say that in the 70 Corvette the LT-1 was more expensive than the LS-5 454.
