i laughed when i saw the cammed c6z put down only 515. the motor i just bought (LS7) out of my buddy's c6z put down 550 with just the cam, a vararam, and arh 1 7/8" LTs...
although any cammed c6z is nasty, this one is on the lower end of the spectrum. so in all fairness, i totally expected that rape coming.

So it's pretty much common knowledge that it takes the old 03-04 cobras an extra 80-120whp to pull 4th gen's.
So is there a new comparison between GT500's & C6Z's? it takes an extra 200whp?
Whats up with these GT500's are they dyno queens? What's really happening, they aren't thaaaat heavy. I assume it's a combo of weight plus aero plus heat soak losses. Is the dyno creating inaccurate numbers by not accurately simulating a true load? This is a legit question, not trying to be an ***.
I just don't get impressed with cars that dyno huge numbers, put down slow times for their power level, and then defend themselves by saying how fast they are from a roll... Its pathetic.

im sure the aerodynamics of the 4th gens and Corvettes help them alot as well.

my brothers pullied,light bolton 03 cobra has pulled on cammed and even heads/cam 4th gens and it only puts 455hp to the wheels.i dont think they need 80-120 more rwhp to pull a 4th gen. But i agree they do need more power and i also find it weird that some of the rediculously high powered gt500's and 03 cobras just dont run like you would think they would. I would also add the 5th gen camaros in there as well. Some of them approaching 500rwhp or more are having trouble with 5.0's making 415rwhp. I know theyre heavier but not that much heavier.

So, your 530rwhp car is still running 12s.
I realize it isn't dialed in yet, but damn, my old bolt-on LT1 with less than half the power was knocking on 12's its first time to the 1/4 in 2700DA, humid summer night, with bald DRs on OEM 17x9" zr1 wheels with the stock 17x9 275/40/17 ws6 wheel and tire up front.
Those things must be hard to hook up with the factory suspension.
Damn, you got me. My jet ski does 0-30 in under 2 seconds?
Truck just serves as the toy hauler and winter beater. Love it in Iowa winters. Hasn't been in 4wd yet
Vids?
