He who is without sin cast the first stone, my fellow man crush warning brethren.
quick95, the only reason I ask is because usually dyno racing consists of those who start squawking about whose car is better and only have dyno sheets for information. None of that is going on here. Seems like you either don't know what dyno racing means or you are doing a little trololol'ing yourself.

basically what I was saying b4 u got butt hurt and wanted attention again was to the OP.........don't get bent on dyno numbers......a big number doesn't make a car fast......area under the curve has a lot to do with it........I think even we can agree on that one........basically stopping people from making mistakes I did when I first stared this doing this stuff when I was very young

Now now there's no reason to get bent. It was merely a question. Easy there, jersey shore. No one is going to call you a troll or an attention *****. Your internets tech bro cred is good here. No one is questioning the plethora of unimaginable information you've supplied. Not sure what you mean by very young because you still are very young. You could have simply explained yourself instead of posting up some random vague statement that had no meaning. I do appreciate the clarification. You are the number one bro in my book!

Well hay thar, mervin! I see you're still in the mid 11's in a 408 lsx? How does it feel to know any LT1 (let alone stock block/bolt-on f-body lsx) with the same mods could crack that Dale mobile ***?

I dont know why but it seems like the LT section on this forum has the most heated discussions. lol Its all because of the Malice Optis. Blame it on the Opti.

Anyways in all seriousness I appreciate all the info. Its obvious dyno numbers are just numbers for bragging rights, but you guys are making me more interested in drag racing with your arguments. Guess ill be planning to build a mid 11 street warrior. Because personally here in the bay area ive seen 400rwhp cars kill aftermarket boosted bmw M series, AMG's, Aston Martins, 5th Gen Camaros, ect at the track. Hell went to this street track a few nights ago and this TA with a mild h/c/i LSx build (not sure if hes on this forum), mild ported heads with MS3 cam M6 annihilated this rich trash talking douche-bag’s new AMG SL65. TA ran 11.9 and the SL65 ran 12.5. 450fwhp > 600+fwhp. Not to mention those new AMG engines put down more TQ then HP. All about the gearing.

Twin turbo AMG V12 got beat by a N/A LSx.

Sounding like a little kid I cant wait till the day my street LTx 396 or 383 kills an $140k+ Elite performance German car. Still probably getting around the same amount of gas mileage and comfort with A/C, Radio, Power steering..

Well, I can tell you it's aggravating connecting an engine capable of 11's to a chassis and tire setup that's capable of 15's. A Tercel can embarrass my '69 from a dig. But, it's set up for things other than proving how big or little my dick is.

She walked a Cammed/Header 2012 SS 5th Gen a few weeks ago, with the old tranny which was slippin' something awful 2-3 and 3-4 FORGETABOUDIT! … and that dude said he dyno'd out at 520 to the wheels.
I have no illusions that I'm pushin 500 RWHP, but I expect she's churning up something north of 500 at the crank and enjoy the force multiplication of the 5.13s down low and THAT is what I built the car for… light to light, street fights. But SOMEDAY, I will find SOMEONE that can tune the 96 OBD2 PCM who has a dyno and we'll find out what she's doing and HOPEFULLY, push what ever she's doing, up, considerably. THEN we can reconnect the SQUEEZIN's… for those stubborn harder to roll over stains.
But, there it is, and I absolutely LOVE IT! I drive down the road watching everything that passes by, thinking… "I can beat that, and that… that, that, that…".
She's not a DD… but she is a blast.

I'm running a 396 with eagle forged internals, H-beam rods, Comp XFI 280 cam, a set of well ported, previously loved set of AFR 195s, Comp ultra-pro 1.6 rockers, 7/16 studs, comp beehive springs… Ported Lt-4 Intake, el cheapo 58mm TB, BMR tubular suspension up front, Hotchkis out back and a Strange D60, spooled 5.13s turned by a Perfomabuilt Lvl 3 and the old trusty Yan SS3600, along with all the obligatory bolt ons.
396 + spooled 5.13s, yummy
