What is it going to take to beat a bolt-on 5.0 with 3.73 gears and 6 speed? My old DD LS1 (110K+ miles) is due for a replacement - wondering if a mild cammed 408 with ported LS3 heads can handle the task. (408 still will be driven 60 miles per day)

Looking for feedback from guys that have got the task done withour blower or N20 - tired of hearing how great the 5.0 is at the office.

For what it is worth, I have ridden in the car, would smoke my stock 99 Z28.

so you're asking if a head/cammed 408 will be enough to beat a bolt-on 5.0....?

lol...

Since when did 5.0s turn into ******* GTRs?

There are a bunch of Cam only LS1's on here that would beat it even.

Nice kill?

Don't make your 408 too mild.

That being said, if a 408 with ported ls3/l92 heads and cam loses to a stock 3.73 5.0 Coyote, you should burn your car to the ground, and then proceed to bunch yourself in the dick a few times just to get the message across

If you're building a 408, you should be looking at much bigger game than a 5.0, even if the 5.0 is modded.

Need at least 800 wheel HP and a 9 sec car to hang with one of them new fangled 5.0's.

You need a 300whp Civic.

Either mach1 or 300whp civic will do.

A ls2 gto with h/c 4000 stall, bigs/little's, full suspension, weight reduction, 175 with nano kit beat me today at our event by a car. I spun a little and that was all it took. Gto runs deep 10's as well.

Y'all are wrong. You need a stock Mach1 everyone knows that.
