We did three digs. This is all the info I know about both cars. Driver in the 5.0 didn't miss any gears. He didn't spin. He launched from 3,000, then 3,500. The last race he tapped the limiter and gave up. I tried flashing the stock converter on the last race and spun. The other launches were from 1,000.
Camaro - ARH 1 7/8, ARH ORY, SLP PowerFlo, Lid, Nitto DR's, 4L60e, stock converter, stock gears. Best E/T 12.7 @ 110 8.21 @ 88 1.98 60' ~1,000ft DA. 360rwhp 370rwtq on a Dynojet
5.0 - Airaid Intake, Flowmaster Exhaust, Nitto DR's, six speed. Best E/T before mods 12.8 @ 113 Negative DA. 388rwhp on a Mustang Dyno.

Yes my car is a freak. Yes I know a tuned 5.0 will be much faster. No, I don't care. It's all in fun

LOL @ the V6 comments. Did you bother reading the first post? I know the guy. We all laugh at his misfortune.

Same 5.0 vs a bolt on LS1 T/A:

I also ran a bone stock auto 5.0 on 28" MT's (former f-body owner) from two digs and beat him both times as well albeit door to door. That car just went 12.2 consistently but he stepped down to 26" radials.

Looks like op explained it for ya. Looks like it was enough to still be pulling on a car that trapped 113. Can you comment that? I think you've missed plenty of threads lately where bolt-on car were trapping 112-114. I believe Mike Morris trapped 114 when he was bolt-on.
He get's butt hurt easily because he needs a 6k clutch dump to get to 108. Ignore him.
