Gonna guess they were all full weight street cars on the heavy *** stock wheels and tires that some guy just slapped a blower on and went to the strip for the first time. Look at the people who are diving these cars. Middle aged men trying to relive their youths who probably have heart burn flashes between shifts.

No look at the fastest times for these cars. They are not impressive at all. Your telling me this is impressive? Only one that could be is the TXSpeed car. But then again no one wants to count the shop cars for 5.0's why count them for SS's? I have said before compare bolt on times/supercharger times/internal time. The 5.0 is blowing the SS out of the water. They both have been out 2yr for SS an 1yr for 5.0.

Internally Stock Bolt-On List (CAI, headers, exhaust, pulleys, tune, gears, converters, tires, weight removal)

2. OrangeChevy - 11.83 @ 116 mph, (LT, Exhaust, CAI, Tune, 18'' wheels, Skinnies, Drag Radials), (LS3, M6)

10. NHSS - 12.53 @ 111.73 mph, (LT, Exhaust, CAI, Tune), (L99, A6)


Maybe the new SS should do LS1 swaps to get 9s with no spray or boost.

Wait a minute...I thought only the Ford guys made excuses

Its not an excuse its pretty obvious that the ford guys are pushing the 5.0 way harder then the new ss ive said it before and ill say it again

I personally see it as if it breaks it was met to be replaced with some thing stronger, better, more then usual lighter as well.

Well I never thought that id see the day but we agree on something

^^And with all that said, the Camaro has just regained the lead in sales for July. How do you explain that?

No wait, I can explain it. More people are buying Camaro's than Mustang's, despite the Mustang's obvious performance advantage.

It showed the regained sales cause of the Convertible. That is why. I know cause my wife tells me all the time since she works and sells them. They sell more V6 convertibles then they do anything cause of the huge price of the SS convertible. But have sold over 50 convertibles in the last 3 months compared to something like 15 others. They are doing dealer trades and all to get the convertibles.

What funny is we went looking for my wife a 5.0 and couldn't find a 5.0 anywhere. Finally found a few. But not what we wanted. They all said they sell out to fast.

Those rims were off a mustang

Well "aftermarket" isn't the General's problem, now is it?

...just what an engine SHOULD do


Lol, I'm just bored man and your posts are fun to reply to

* Also, they have not sold NEARLY enough verts to substantiate the overall sales advantage. It is not the only reason, it's because they are the Transformers car, and they always will be to many people . Although I personally really like how they look.

To bad bolt pattern is diff.

And just like an aftermarket tune making engines blow isn't Fords problem.
Yep they are sucking wind so bad looks like them new SS are in reverse.



So now explain the other issue with the LS3?

Bolt pattern? Bahahahaa! Oh gee whiz, you got me there . It was a joke dude, with a hint of sarcasm . Need a hug or something? Maybe you take yourself too seriously perhaps?

Looks like they are as fast as you.....care to explain that...lol And your full bolt-ons at high 11's. Danm.....maybe it ain't so easy to get a new 5.0 in the 10's as you say.

Irunelevens

(Devil's advocate) But not a single one of them traps as high as he does

Hmm Looks like its easier then you say. Man that crate engine isn't beating every bolt on 5.0 that runs in similar air huh. Oh man your trap is better. To bad that gives a **** when they cross the line first huh. SO lets see there fastest is 11.7 our is 10.9. Not counting teh one that is completely gutted that went 10.8. Oh wait the fastest N/A SS went 11.1. Hmm looks like they still suck. I mean **** you had to do a engine swap to get that low. Again you fail.
