actually he said 346cid motor. it's an lsx engine using lsx technology. it's not like he has a 4v head or anything. give some credit where it's due, man. fact of the matter is, the ls1 is still the bar, even after damn near 15 years. i think the new 5.0s are making their way up, but they are still too expensive to own and mod for most guys to consider. especially when you can purchase/mod an lsx car to the same end result for prob 1/4 the money.

HAHA he actually brought up, "Also see some one says best case dyno with 50 degree day etc etc.". Like records aren't set in "perfect" conditions. LOL What a tool.
He actually wants me to waste my time trying to educate him, which is impossible to begin with. It is all at his finger tips why he expects special treatment by getting things handed to him is beyond me.

I think the next one is at 54XRwhp, might have been 55X however. Then you have 1-2 more in the 53X range... Chrs1313 I *think is number 4-5 at 52XRwhp. All large stalled A4s. Those are all using 100% true factory ls1 blocks, the one at 540Rwhp and the rest under it are all STOCK BOTTOM END and FACTORY LS1 blocks fwiw as well.

What had happened was...Ford gave the fan boys a little bigger Dick to work with and they got cocky...lol In reality they are still *** hurt from years of ls1 domination. Except for the ones with "extends" (aka supercharges).
But then on the other hand ls1 guys are still holding on to the past because the new Camaro just does not make the grade. Bottom line is ford got there **** together and deserve to dominate.
Where the hell is dodge?
And the imports? The gtr has to represent them all I guess....

yeah, i can see chrs1313 laying waste to tsps record. i remember seeing that car at the track before it even had a cam haha how it has progressed is awesome. a factory assembled and installed shortblock car with only 346cid making sub 10 second passes n/a is awesome. i mean, it's not a 5.0 or anything, but still an accomplishment. hell you can buy a complete ls1 rotating assy for what...a few hundred bucks. capable of 9s n/a haha.
I want to know what DM is going to end up running on motor and what skinny is going to push his stock 5.3 to, absolutely insane.

I know that you used to own a Cobra, doesn't mean that you are well informed.
Haven't heard too many people call Manley rods "junk".
No, it's like being surrounded by a bunch of *** kissing "Yes" men. Some people like that as it boosts their ego and makes them feel comfortable not being challenged.

What is funny is that he does what he does on here on the Mustang sites as well.
I sit back and laugh at how he gets so many people's panties in a wad. It's like he sets a trap and the same people keep walking into it time after time

LS1 was the clear winner here and he also had the passenger
Was it hard to tell who was faster? I watched the vid 3 times and the 1st time was already clear to me.
A really stupid comment here. Hey put a built motor and turbos on the Z28 and I bet he puts train lengths on him.
His shifts could be faster, but you have to be driving it
Really? I thought #'s are just well.... #'s! I've seen plenty of should've out comes.
LOL, it's not hard to tell who was faster and with equal passengers the GM would have a slight edge? It had the slight edge in this video.
New technology vs old technology... I see the funny. I'm not hating on the new 5.0's either because I think they're fast in stock form and with bolt-ons they're up there with pullied Cobra's
About damn time someone watched the same video as me!!!!!!

Good runs, your car runs strong for sure for the mods/miles.
I would definitely say that he needs a driver mod though (not hating just being real) and I'd like to see a vid from the inside of his car too lol. I mean you were pulling him up top too and your shifts still could have been faster so that makes me wonder how well he was driving, being he just got the car and all.
Nonetheless good kill. I really like the 2013 5.0's too.

^I should have elaborated a bit more but here goes. When someone barely gets pulled on then I don't get why they would call the other car a joke. Now if he put lengths on him in short order that would be a different story. A win is a win, but calling the mustang a joke would also imply the fbody being slightly less of a joke, no?
