The thing is it's now dipped into the 9 you say and that's right there with the fastest bolt-on ls7 although the 5.0 is lacking 3 mph. Now I really don't think anyone will argue the ls7 is a much more powerful engine.....and they are quite a bit faster than any other 5.0. Specialty fuel to get there??? I don't know, but something is up. I do think using something like that is out of the realm for a good comparisons.


Don't forget Sheetz pump gas too
Its on shell urt from what I seen. They will not say what gears it has so something tells me it has really steep gears. It does have aftermatket kmember, a arms etc, no AC, no heat, no stereo, kirkey seat. It still the dash and door panels bit I'm guessing its empty behind them. Oh and manual rack and pinion. They said its race weight is about 2850

I had densos on my old LT1 for over a year without a problem. Was actually recommended to them by SpeedInc. I'm sure they are hit and miss. Kind of like GM's 317 heads
