Looking for a race
So if you ran a 13.6 spinning and possibly a 13.3ish time, we'd be close. Let me run drag radials, since I have 2.73's still vs your 3.90's and it would be fun. Oh well....hope you get a good race.
Also if you look up the times for stock LS1 cars, most are 13.4 second cars or around there. All you put into that car of yours is get to where the stock LS1 F-cars are. Not bad but I mean..not great. New Technology vs old push rod bigger inch motor. Sounds fun.

Sorry I copied and pasted and it didn't work out for me. I spaced the stuff we all care about.
that was a GTO 2005 vs an 05 GT slight difference's from their 06 variant. The GTO weights in at 200+ lbs more. The 4.6 is small in cubis inches but the motor is euro style with over head cam(s)it is also HUGE. The 5.4 is a DOG in pure form, I know my best friend has one and every mag hates on it with it's puny 300hp, but like any other motor in the FREE world. add a power adder and there you have it.


...nice car by the way.
