I'm pretty sure I can put a car or 2 on an LS2, but most I've run across are older gentlemen who are scared to bring their cars over 3k rpm. Not bashing on vettes, use to own a C5. Want a C6, but probably will get a Camaro ( wife wants ones ). Call me out if you want, but don't bother if your sig says stock GTO, you'll need way more then that.
Personally, I'd probably get a Goat over a vette...have kids, need the tiny back seats. Plus they are nice rides.

I've heard more crap about this optispark system on here than I care to. So I'm curious, no idea why because I will never own a LT1 (no offense), but can you get past this optispark thing? I know on my old 3.1L V6 Camaro I did a TB bypass. LOL Is there a optispark bypass?

What to you mean mr gt by me needing to learn slot more about my car by what I post up here??? Sorry that i want to know what I'm getting into before I start.. I know there are alot more things I need to learn.. Never said I knew everything.. And with me having both cars, building both cars, and racing both cars.. I think gives a little more power when I'm not one sided.. Both cars are my babys.. But I push both of them to there max for what they have done...

Sorry, I'm the one watching Baseball and drinking beer. Sadly, I'm out of beer, and the wife took over the TV. Then again, this is more entertaining, but have to hit the hay soon. Earlier, my post to you 94Z28'MachThis' was in reference to 2V modular PI Stangs. IMO, they are a driver's race with an LT1. Sorry, but this has been my experience. If you have run into turd GT's, then chalk that up as the average Stang owner who buys the car for the looks and just likes the ride, not everyone mods their car and bangs gears. My opinion is also not one sided...owned both GMs and Fords.....also Chryslers.

A stock LT1 and a stock 2v GT are pretty much a driver's race. Any modification made either way will tip the scales. A LT1 with gears really wakes it up. Same with the 2v. I've raced 4-5 LT1s (they are EVERYWHERE around here) and didn't lose once in my 2v GT. Having said that, they were all mostly stock, and had drivers with less experience than I have.
Um, improving knowledge about Mustangs in here is ruining the forum?
No one here is acting like a 2v GT is a monster. But a stock LT1 and a stock 2v GT are both high 13 low 14s cars. Both, with gears, will run mid 13s to high 13s. I am not sure why people stating this is "ruining" the forum.
If someone was saying the same thing about Camaro's in a Mustang forum, the camaro members would correct them as well. And so should they.
