Saying it's slightly modified is like saying it has a 3/4 RV cam.. lol

I hope to drop down in the 12.50 range with some better air. The DA was nearly 2700 and the temp was 86. The guy in Cordova had 60 degrees weather and 800 ft da. I cant wait for cooler weather.

Exactly! 5th Gens are awesome cars. Stock they are putting the 4th gen Camaros to shame with their 1/4 times and in the look department! No more catfish look! lol

Stock by definiton means as it came from the factory. As soon as anyone mods anything on a car, it isnt stock. Its not a "well i consider heads bolt on" kind of argument, stock means nothin changed.

I havnt dogged the numbers at all, I love them and I love 5th gens. I just pointed out that it isnt stock.

Agreed its not stock

Good runs on a lightly modded car though. Any more mods in the near future?

Woohoo stock vs not stock times again, man reminds me of the late 90's early 00's when everyone was going for the SI records, totally stock records & all of the other stuff. Some good argument material there.

Great times, can't wait to get my car. Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

how is that? the fastest recorded stock times are basically the same between the two cars. i believe at this point the new ss is a touch faster but it's not nearly enough to say it's putting an 11 year old car to shame.

Default stock...or is it?

How bout I interject this....just for the sake of controvery
What if he only had the car tuned....Would that constitute stock? No tangible hard parts were installed, so aesthetically it was 100% intact from the factory.
Check out this thread and then decide....

You cant pick and choose which mods are ok and which arent, it becomes too blurry. Stock is exactly the way it came from the factory, down to the tires, air filter, and tune.

We call that "showroom stock".


I always think of three definitions when I hear "stock"


1) "Showroom Stock" = right off the showroom floor. (might allow a tire change)

2) "Stock" = common bolt bolt-ons only (cat back, tune, cold air induction, etc)

2) "Stock, with the addition of" =stock longblock (usually when talking forced induction)

I am not sure how anyone can argue stock vs. not stock. Stock is the way it came from the factory. If your only mod is a K&N filter, your car is no longer stock. Yes, that is a VERY VERY VERY minor mod, but a mod nonetheless.

As we have seen new Camaros and G8s for example, even just a small mod like a tune might help a lot.

Six-speed running 12.7's with a tune and mufflers? Great time, man. That's one of the best near-stock times that I've noticed.

I see mail-order tunes being more popular with this car than 4th gens; more like "chipping" the third gens.

The air was real bad the night we ran, real bad. The humidity was around 70 percent along with a near 2700 DA. That alone explains the low mph. The car made 390/393 to the wheels through the stock mufflers. I deleted the rear and put 1 single magnaflow muffler in place of the H-pipe.

Heading out to the track tomorrow night.

Just to set the record straight in the LSX world, here is how we have always defined mods since 1998. I should know, I used to break these records often and also maintained the old drag record listings.

Stock (also called showroom stock) = 100% as it came from the factory. ZERO mods.

Bolt-On (also called stock internal) = lightly modded. Tunes, exhaust, airbox, intake etc...

Cam-only = all bolt-on mods and a cam/springs swap. Unported heads, stock shortblock.

Highly modified = ported or aftermarket heads, built shortblocks, strokers etc..

Power Adder = turbos, nitrous, supercharger.

Your car is now in the "bolt-on" group, based on these definitions.
