Ya but thats not really being fair bc when SLP cars say they were stock which they do have exaust susp. and air lid over us regular guys. So i say to make it even lets do the same mods as them and it should still be considered stock. But once headers are added its no longer stock. LS6 intake for 98-00 cars i think that that is just fair to really say that it is still stock.

Weight reduction is a modification just like a performance mod.. It is done to make the car faster.

I still say stock is stock if my vote counts. Buying a souped up special order is not stock. Buying a better model than the next guy is just another model if it's from GM. Factory mods are still mods, one of a kind cars can't be stock, if it's not on the standard order sheet, it's not a standard feature. COPO, Shelby, Motion, Yenko, lingenfelter ect are not stock. Pulling a bunch of weight is also doing a mod.
What's the big deal anyway, people always lie about their set up.
There's too many so called records anyways. In my opinion.

stock is slow, modded is fast...how about that for a straight answer? if i've seen a stock ls1 run faster than you, you may as well be stock so it really doesnt matter to me is what i'm trying to say...
