LT1 Z28 vs. S197 GT 3v
#321
Well....dynos will be dynos. But I've seen bone stock ls1s put down near 320 bone stock. I only dynod my ls1 once. It was on a mustang dyno and did 305whp with shitty mac headers, stock catbac, lid, maf and free mods....still on the ls1 intake to no tune. My guess atound 340 on a dj. Now notch's ls1 did 340 whp with no headers, ory, ls6 ported intake, udp and magnaflow catback.
Seems you may be a bit generous to the 3v and stingy with the ls1.

3v's are capable of 12's with a tire/tune/cai/exhaust, but the majority of them run mid-high 13's. The weight again playing a factor.
Part of me would like to drop a 3V into my T-bird, but they are just too expensive for what you get.

Only viable option for a 3V is boost. Still not scaring a serious street effort, but a fun ride nonetheless.
And still surprises the unsuspecting foe here and there, since nobody expects much out of those.

While 330rwhp is far from impressive from a V8 with a bolt-on/cam setup, that would be a fun dig car with some gear and good rubber.

I agree with this. The 3V gets wildly different times, but the average owner clicks off high 13's. Mid 13's stock is possible with a good driver. Most LT1 cars run In the 14.0 range. The 2V cars are also in the 14.0 range.

Lol @ 2v being 14.0.....more like 14.3
I've seen 2 100+k lt cars go in the 13s stock.
For the 3v vs the lt o may give the 3v a edge in et due to the m5 gearing. The roll will go to the lt. So many of furds n/a modulars just had no potential n/a with bolt ons.

2V GT trapped 98-101mph. LT1 trapped 98-102. Drivers race, pure and simple.

You keep telling yourself that cupcake. Yea.....lt's had no problem hitting 13s stock. You're want to bring up record times for the 2v. Idk what s record time for a lt is but it would have to be in the mid 13s i would think.
2vs were **** with virtually no hope of na performance. Same can really be said for the 3v.
