Lol relax I post a video of a bolt on lt1 giving one Hell. My point was anything can happen on the street just because op had a good race with one doesn't mean it can't happen because of what the internet says they should run Or whoevers boyfriend runs so in so time. Not everyone going to run 12s in that car Or not "All" are going to beat every ls1 on the block. So be open minded a little bit more.. yes the 392 is fast but one little mistake like a mis shift Or a short shift can cost it a race to a ls1..

Ohio they pretty have no choice but to be stock. They cant be tuned with the exception of a handful of guys running a b&g "tuned" ecm. Those r still up in the air if they offer and real gains.
The most someone can do is mild bolton. Even if they put long tubes on the car it wont be able to get the most out of them without a real tune.
Its 100% legit that there are several of these things running low low 12's bone stock. With that being said they have more running 13's with mediocre drivers in high da.
Basically whatever u say a stock 5.0 is capable of consider the same for the 392. They are pretty damn close in performance with the 392 having a slight edge. I know u will wanna debate that being that you own a 5.0 but im just being honest here.

"Our test car did the 0-to-60-mph dash in 4.2 seconds, 0-to-100 in 9.8, and the quarter-mile in 12.6 at 115 mph. Those numbers are a significant improvement over those of the last Charger SRT8 we tested; that car hit those same marks in 4.6 and 11.0, respectively, covering the quarter in 13.1 at 110.

I believe It was Inside Line that wen't 12.5 at 114 in a Challenger 392. I have several MOPAR buddies that have gone quicker than that in their 392's.

That's the one I included in my post. As I said if they all ran record passes I wouldn't have said what I did. The list tells me as long as you don't run into that one 392 it will be a close race (please notice I never said the ls1 was winning). All I have is the data provided by CT, if you have data showing a ton of M6 392s trapping 113+ I'll change my mind.

i think the tires that come on todays musclecars are very impressive and offer a lot of performance. that is why many cannot fathom mid/low 12s on a stock tire. the tires they come with are three times the price of the BF GOODRICH tire on my WS6. these new tires have the performance close to a nitto 555r of ten years ago. much better than what these cars had stock 15 years ago lol. then you factor in the catbacks on the new cars lose basically no power compared to a 10+ hp loss on a fbody.
the tires on the cayman are close to $3000 lol i think the boss uses similar ones too.

I guess 392 driver was bad. I would give the edge to the Challenger. Why plp are in denial that the SRT8 will run 114-116 stock? Its funny, when plp see their Ford or Chevy runs xx@xxxmph in any mags like Car n Driver, they say:''Come on, those guys suck at driving, a real driver would do better'' But when every mags runs from 114-116, they dont believe it..silly

As for Magazines...
- They use GPS timing to get their results
- They correct their results to 'ideal conditions'
Simply can't compare their results to actual track results.

LXmodguy over on the forums has taken his 392 to an 11.9x.....and there is no tuning for them yet...lol.
A stock F-body and newer model year RT is more comparable. New RT models have been cranking out low 13's stock.

Sometimes to head to the track BTW, not defending em. Youre just reinforcing what I'm saying; if the results please you, you take em as a fact, but if not, you say their numbers are bullshit. Altough 116 might be stretch..lol I thought I saw that somewhere but I cant find it anymore ![Icon Smokin](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies2/icon_smokin.gif)

I'm not exactly clueless, I just talked to red Barron about 20mins ago as he was putting a something special on a 6.1L srt8.

I honestly doubt a near stock fbody could pull one from a roll. As I said I think it would be a close race. Maybe I'm wrong but the data out there is what I'm using to base this on.
The night Red Barron was here racing I was a tenth slower and half a mph slower. That was with me driving both cars (his 392 IE and my z28).

Yep, I've seen a 5.0l run 13s@106...They all run this way till I see one faster. Your logic is different when its not a 5.0l heh? Youre all over the place to say that all stock 5.0l will run 12@117 with tires only.
