Default 02 ls1 cam\gear bolt-on vs 14 5.0 bolt-on tune

Well was on the way to work this A.M. an ran into a white with blue strip 5.0! I got behind him an we played around at one light then finally got next to him an tried beeping 3 times an going but i don't think he new what to do lol but the 2nd time we got next with each other I was in 3rd right around 50 I would say an he dumped the clutch an we went.. next light we chatted for a second and he told me he had some kinda cold air, long tube with full exhaust and tuned and he put 440 down to the grown! I was surprised that i pulled from him and he was dum founded when I told him it was just a cammed bolt-on geared ls1 that made 396 to the wheels.. the video was kinda goofy but u get the point.. all an all was fun an he was realy cool dude..

You've got a good running car man thats a rarity for an ls fbomb these days. Most people here will tell you a 5.0 with Cai/tune/cat deletes should bet you....

Camaro was pulling slow but steady. Good kill!

Should have started in 2nd maybe. Would have been a lot worse for the Yote.

Can barely make out the video on my phone, but it's very impressive that you won.

You can make the video out just fine if you turn your head and look for the white Mustang.

Gears are probably one of the best, if not the best mods on a cammed car. With stock 3.42's he probably would have walked you hard, so nice job lol, I cringe when I see people having 3.42's in a cammed car because they suck enough with bolt ons let alone a cam.

What's your exhaust setup besides headers? Add a FAST, UDP, and lighter clutch and it would get real ugly, real fast....

Yea I love the 411's with the 6 speed.. drive 50\50 city an high way to work an still getting 22 mpg an I'm not easy on the car lol. The exhaust is a 3 inch Y pipe that i built and goes to a slp2 an dump before the axel... I did have a 125 wet shot on the car for a lil bit witch was realy fun but I sold it

I agree. I have 4.10's as well on my 6-speed and it compliments the HCI really nice IMO. If you are really good at snapping off quick shifts it makes it even better

A video from when I pulled it out over the winter to let it run for a bit. It was cold as hell out.. my cut outs were open and are about a foot past the headers

Good kill. A 440hp 5.0 should run hard.

Yep these cars are pretty much dead even with similar mods.
