WTF is wrong with 302's???
#42
me knowing what I'm doing has nothing to do with 302 < LT1, as the 302 is 225 horses at 4200 stock, and I got 194 rwhp with just synthetics and 12 degrees initial advance, and the stock 302 wants the 1-2 upshift no higher than 5400, while the LT1 is 275 horses at 5000 stock, and is perfectly happy turning 6200 with the Hypertech reprogramming. 302 is iron heads and a relatively heavy 2-piece intake manifold, while the LT1 is aliminum heads and the intake is less than half the weight of the 302's long-runner intake. Sure, a well-built 302 is > stock LT1, but that's not a fair comparison, thus I wasn't making it. It seems you were.

I haven't seen too many 500rwhp N/A LT1's. Even if they are out there they are going to be 383+. You could easily make a 347 500rwhp N/A while staying below 7,500rpms. I will keep the debate to the stock block because a Dart block 363 would be a nasty nasty nasty fast motor.

I'm sorry but anyone who feels the need to post in ghetto trash speak like "da" doesn't even need to post here, he/she needs to devote all energy to making his/her pants hang 3 inches low exposing boxer shorts or picking the perfect flat billed ball cap and finding a way to make sure the gold sticker doesn't flake off
gotta look great for that drive by or 7-11 hold up and all

302>LT1. my shitbox notch 2.73/auto car with nothing more than an ORX and flows took an auto LT1 a few months back. although im surpised that the weight difference hasnt come up yet. my notch weighed a touch over 3000lbs with me in it, while an LT1 f-body weighs around 3400-3500lbs.

I'm waiting on the day I get my hands on a notchback Mustang. I'm going to get a fresh 5.0 and see how fast I can get it with bolt ons. Then how fast with stock E7's. Then how fast with the stock cam. Etc...etc... Should be real fun and shouldn't cost that much.

I've been thinking about getting a notchback. I want to put a LS6 in it though. Just to have fun with the F-Body guys. I know I'm an F-Body guy but damn that would be fun.
