It's not stock, more like LT1 territory. I'd love to see a stock LT1 v SS/TC. Intake/exhaust/tune an SS/TC shouldn't have a problem with a stock LS1.

That'll do it, 14 less hp but plenty less weight ftw.

Unless that passenger was absolutely HUUUUUGE, you still have the weight advantage.

Nothing is LT1 territory! LT1 was a category in itself!

You're right, "stupid slow" is the proper category, especially those black ones.

True story. Finding a tuner is tough around here.

There is a certain individual on this board that I hung with a modded B4C Z28 till 135 mph on the freeway. It was fun and I was even suprised. Im just more upset that people want to say they hate that GM put an SS badge on the Cobalt and HHR. Until they get beat by one in their V8.

Great run man and digs on these cars will suck though but roll is great.
