Awesome.....glad you made the switch
These things are plenty fast stock....guys running 11.9-12.30 with auto trans
and 12.2-12.6 with the stick (row your own)
drag radials, ported intake and throttle body, and tune for E85 has a few guys in the high tens.....
...........still factory exhaust and torque converter
wont be long till someone runs a stall and long tubes and posts a 10.40 slip
after that some CNC head work will most likely put the race on for a high nine second pass with the factory GM cam...
...this new LT1 is simply amazing
Perhaps you're "THAT GUY"....

Hi HCI,I like the Camaro better than my 5.0. I feel bad saying that but the 1SS 1LE is like the smooth older brother to the rough riding Mustang. The car is just better to drive and with a few mods will be just as loud and aggressive as the mustang.Give it a try and you will see the difference.

I test drove a PP GT before buying my 2018 1LE SS. I gotta say it was a no brainer for me. While the Mustang was nice, the Camaro just felt like it did everything better. Literally my only gripe right now is the bizarre downward angle on the radio touch screen.
Js - I also bought the white one! My only regret is not looking harder for one with the PDR.
