WS6 and WS7 are not engines. WS6 is a factory option package for Firebird/Trans Am. WS7 is an aftermarket term.

LS1 is a 346ci GenIII V8. LS7 is a 427ci GenIV V8.

You need to learn how to use search ASAP if you don't know the difference between a LS1 and LS7. Ones a 5.7L, the others a 7.0L, if you want to know more search.

Aren't you the guy who made the post in the Street Racing section about Mustangs being slow and your Trans Am being sooooo fast and you know nothing about your car? Wow.

I've lost to every Mustang I've raced so far, granted it's been only 3, and all were at the drag strip and were obviously not stock (course I'm not either). But still, Mustangs are not slow. One was a Termi cobra, one was an older Cobra, and the other was a 60something-70s Mustang.

Yeah, sometimes a little humbling is good, especially when you have a Trans Am that's faster than any Mustang that's ever hit the highways of the USA.
