Good thing everyone around here thought they were turds and traded them in on 5.0s or termi's, or I might run into one and be f'd in the A.

I'd give your car a whirl and we could see what happened.

You bragged about beating an LT1 last week. LT1 is a cakewalk, an LS1 will have you on your knees cupping his *****. Back off while you're still ahead kid.

I wonder if we did end up racing what people would say when you lost? That you're a bad driver or that I'm spraying?

Mach 1 needs a driver mod that's for sure. I can tell by watching the video he started off in a higher gear and was going to pull back up and he let off. Eaton swap Mach would eat a stock Gto alive that's for sure.

ls1tech, where 298whp machs trap "a hair under 112" @ "full weight." Right. I guess I was doing it wrong in my 3360lb 3v that made 330whp and trapped 110.

Oh how I wish I still had my "turd".... There are machs that race in the orlando area often and they post the videos on svtp, I'm sure they'd be honored to shut that big mouth.

The GTO's are pigs stock weight. If you can manage to take weight off them though, they get quick. They have an awesome drivetrain though, and it doesn't take much to put down 400 RWHP. Will hopefully make it to the strip in the next week or two and I'll report results.

LS2 GTO's trap that bone stock. With similiar mods to you, I'd think they'd trap 114 or so.

I've mentioned it a bunch of times now, but they raced 4 times and the GTO was out front every time. The mach did start in 3rd this run, but afterwards, they went from 2nd gear and the GTO took the win by a bit. We met up with all the stang guys yesterday and they told us they are still clueless as to what happened. LOL, guess we made them think. I agree that the mach needs a driver though.

And I don't think a stock eaton swapped mach 1 would "eat a GTO alive" personally. Edge it out...yea with a good driver I can see.
