I think you missed point. Just slapping a blower on it like I did you are not going to run low 11's. It is going to need more supporting mods. I didn't. Convertor will easily put me in the 10's. With suspension and everythingv else helping me more and more. And I am an auto.
As far as full weight 5.0's it all depends on what trim level. My manual base was a hair over 3400. Now my loaded auto is almost 3800. Buddies base auto is about 3580.

What supporting mods would I need? D1sc @ 10#s... Sticky tires... Tune... That would be very close to 550Rwhp and weigh in lighter than your car by a tad. I see no reason you don't think it could run deep into the 11s.
A stock car with a 200 hit would put down roughly 500Rwhp and run deep deep into the 11s.
I don't see your reason for it not... Other than "because".

Lemons, buy me your old TA. Ohio, buy me the D1SC supercharger for it.
We'll test it out

Go buy an auto and try it. The guy this weekend with a 150 shot on his Fbody and headers, cam, sticky tires upgarded clutch upgrade and some suspension work(all right from him when he lined up next to me). He then told me good luck that he ran 11's and that I might have a hard time with a stock 5.0 beating him. Temp tags are great..LOL. Anhyway he ran 11.8-12.2 all night with -500 da. So even then isn't as simple as you say.
Not to mention as supporting mods in a manual you will end up needing some suspension work as well. Do to handling the harder launches. Betting will need headers as well to reach the 550whp mark with just the blower. 10lbs isn't going to add 250whp by its self. As said you will least need exhuast, inje4ctors, bap or fuel pump.

I ran faster than that with a budget setup full weight on motor in 2000+ DA... My buddies 98 full weight TA with a 228R/lid/full exhaust (otherwise BONE stock) ran 11.7-11.8s in 85 degree weather. Don't pull that crap on me.
Just because it isn't simple for him, doesn't mean it isn't for me.
Dudes setup sucks. Period.
What suspension work would you have to have for 1.6s besides a nice tire? I have personally seen M6s pull 1.6 times with nothing more than bolt ons and a slick.
8#s through a D1sc is a 190-205Rwhp pick up. 10#s would net you extremely close to 550Rwhp.
I have personally drove (almost bought) a bone stock ls1 (less exhaust) with a D1 at 7#s.. The car made 475Rwhp.
Stick to talking about modding the 5.0, don't talk to me what an Ls1 needs to reach XXXRwhp.

Give me just a tad bit longer and he won't have to buy the D1 for my car.... Unless he wants me to have an extra kit. ![Devil](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_devil.gif)

Its a 6 speed and I have the basic bolt on suspension parts and run on a stock size drag radial cutting 1.5x 60fts. I don't have a weight but its not stripped down and I drive it regularly its no race car. Actually has koni shocks and strano springs which is not made for drag racing. And most people can't drive or mod a car properly thats why they don't do it easily. If you look around this site most cars are missing at least one key thing to completing a combo... ex; tires, driver mod, etc...

I am running low 11s with stock heads,full weight,stock wheels and all sway bars on Ohio. A blower with even 6 psi and bigger injectors SHOULD put me high 10s easy. And my car is no stronger than any other Ls that knows what they are doing. I got enough supercharged cars so I am doing weight reduction mods and heads and then done with it. Your car runs well but I think you are trying to get under Lemon's skin a bit don't you???

With little suspension mods I was able to cut 1.5 60fts in my manual. Advatage of being able to launch at 5k+. Which was also why I stated in an auto. Since I have an auto. If my car now was a manual I most likely could have run a little faster cause I could launch harder.

This is what I mean supporting mods. He acts as it will automatically do it. Which is not true. Granted they are not drag shocks/springs but are still better then stock.
