Thumbs up Turbo LT1 > Viper *vid*
Camaro had some traction issues, and didn't stay in it long after getting out front. Most races were low rolls to ~110 I believe.

Camaro made 530rwhp/650rwtq.

Rematch to come soon, LT1 with moar bewsts and Viper on bottle.

Wow.... If LT1s are boat anchors, that one's hanging off of a top fuel hydro.

That's just a monster. A damn monster. If you ever throw an intercooler at it and double the boost, keep us in the know. I'd like to see what that thing can do after gaining a few lbs.


And man it sounds MEAN. Any more details on the engine? Heads, cam, intake, carb?

Probably not bad - I'm sure he's well aware that a bolt-on GTS isn't the fastest thing on the street.

He didn't care. We were out on a cruise for some racing so he wanted to get the LT1 to run someone, and it was just for fun, we knew the outcome.

Not mine car.

Not my car. I think he didn't throw an intercooler on since with the blow through carb and E85 it keeps somewhat cold.

He knows.

He's got some stuff on the way and it'll be turned up 6lbs or so soon he says.

All I know is it's an Eagle rotating assembly, cam is real small, forget the exact specs but like 21x/21x and LOW .5xx" lift.

I didn't make this video, but I loan some footage out to the guy who did. It was made by the Viper's owner and he put the LT1 races from inside his as well.
