Default Sibling rivalry!!

I had the opportunity to snap a few pics of our cars together (mine and my brother's) after we took his car to the dyno to check the gains on his recent intake swap. Went from a stock LS1 intake to a stock LS6 intake and picked up an honest 11rwhp, not too shabby.

Here they are together:










Like he's gonna get the garage at my house................dont think so, lol:


His car just turned over 30,000 miles on the trip to the dyno. His car is very, very nice, his interior is practically mint (by the way, it's a '00 model).


Just wanted to share,

Joe.

Nice, it would have been nice if my brothers and I had the same car. Each can help work on another's and everyone knows what a good x-mas present is.

Wow, you and your bro have awesomely clean rides. Real nice pics also! Behind SOM, those colors would be my next choices for a T/A. Don't know if you saw it or not, but there is another brother-brother T/A photoshoot on the multimedia section with two almost identical red birds.
My Camaro when I sold it had 34,000 on the clock and could still smell the new car smell. I ended up selling to a local guy around here whose brother (go figure) has a red 02 T/A with a small cam, intake, gears and exhaust. Let the speed wars begin!!

Thanks guys! These two cars are very well matched, motor to motor that is. His best is a 12.25@109 (1.7x) and mine is a 12.30 @109 (1.80, spinning). Both cars are boltons and small cams. He has the advantage of 3.73's, while I have a larger stall, Yank SS4000 versus his Vig 3200. I think I could take him in the quarter given a nicely prepped track. I'm working to get that race lined up
