I raced a 6spd/full exhaust/intake/ and tuned vette one day and put the smack down on him twice
that was funSome of the people as always are idiots. There was this old guy busting like 100mph+ through town one day and I guess he expected me to race him. The funny part is his car was stock, like BONE stock. He blew past me like he was doing something and I was just like idiot. I do want to catch his *** out on the highway though. I'm going to bust his ***

haha alright well a few of you guys got it all mixed up here, I guess you didn't read carefully enough. sorry if i missed anything on page 3 and 4, I didn't want to read anything. Some smart moderator here moved my thread and I had no clue (since im still new) until I just searched for it like a week later. But anyway a few of you misread my post, such as TAToad and LS1W66. My post regarded the different between a T/A and a T/A WS6..not a formula. And as previously stated in my OP, I knew the LS1 is an LS1 thing, but I didn't know all the other differences, such as poeple said; sway bar, options, etc. That's what I was curious of. Thanks to those who helped though I appreciate it!!

This should cover it
Now I'm quoting myself.
Anyway sorry for the thread jack but it happens when people are as passionate about their rides as we all seem to be.
The WS6 option adds Ram Air hood, raised airbox, powersteering cooler, 32mm front swaybar, 1LE Springs (`96-early 2000 only), different valved Decarbon shocks, 17x9" wheels 275/40/17 tires, and a low restriction exhaust (different muffler only).
Auto equipped WS6's required the GU5 3.23 gear set. but at an extra cost.
BTW the WS6 option was available on Formula's and Trans Am's from `96-00 and Trans Am's exclusively in `01-02.
There is no noticeable power difference between a Std. Car and a WS6 Car.
Quarter mile and Skidpad numbers show desrepencies towards both cars.
LIke said before in the end stock to stock it's a Drivers race.

You forgot to add aluminum drive shaft. And a ram air will feed more air I don't think a T/A gets air at all not having a hood.

Must be a Camaro Only thing or a line shortage at the Assembly plant.
LS1 equipped Formula's and Trans Am's were never available with anything less then a Z rated tire (even the std 245/50 16 RSA all seasons were Z rated)
My Father and I had identical cars except I ordered the no cost option of GSC's over the RSA's.

It is really dependant on what Tires were available as Std equipment.
Previous F-cars had a 235/55/16 Eagle GA as the base tire for V6 and V8's
I'm not familiar enough with the Z28's Std equipment to know whether these were still the base model tire after 1997. Meaning if you orderd the Z rated tires you would get the 155 speedo and the accompanying speed govenor.
