So if someone bought a Boss crate engine and put it in their new Mustang; you wouldn't think it would be a big deal?
Right.....

I know a guy that got a Boss engine brand new from ford for 6500. A month later they raised the price to 11k. He got it on an error for that price.

WHo has been here longer. NOT YOU NOOBIE!
IS it just a LS1 with cam and heads. I mean if that was case it would not have been easier to buy a used LS1 and put a better cam and heads in it.
I think the point is that he try's to hype his car as it is a stock LS1 with some bolt ons when he has a LS6 to run 11s. His LS1 ran 12's by his sig.

My Formula went a best of 11.86 stock internals. Barely off the mark for the 'S.I. Fastest List' here. And that was 2006. lol

You act as if LS1's have never been quicker than high 11's w/ bolt-ons...sorry to rain on your parade, they have. Doesn't take 'tons' of weight reduction either.

If you look at dates on list all them are winter months for best times. Which tells you they had great DA's. Why cause cars run faster in the winter then mid summers like TX. Also I have looked and racing weight of every one of them that went below mid 11s is under 3300lbs. Some them weigh 2800lbs. That is a lot of weight removed.

LOL..My car will go faster then high 11's. Some of us don't only run our car when it is winter time. We even run in 90* weather. Which is last time I was able to run. Look at what my time is corrected for good air. My next passes will be in great weather. We will see what it does then.

Just face it, the 4th gen is a tough platform.

You can't call somebody a "noobie" when they have been here longer than you, and have more posts
