This website(especially Hio and big ******) hate reality and general level headed ness. In their minds a 325hp LS would make the car faster than a 550hp 5.4.


I On the other hand think ur vette is sick as wellas the GT. I want to see a 3.4 whipple on it!!!!

I visit this site form time to time as I like all american Cars for the most part and respect any fast cars... But i have got to say your flat our crazy if you think a FGT would run better with an ls Swap.... how many stock longblock ls1 have made over 1600 hp?? im sure none .. Now this does not make the ls1 a bad motor i just think its crazy to think its on the same level....And as far as not being impressed with the FGT look at standing mile records most are held by FGT and im not sure currently but i know for the last couple years atleast a FGT was holding the record.. Give credit where credit is due i respect the ls cars very much to many with blind folders on...

Slow shifting? That's intentional. I like to keep the stock rear diff (easy launch) and trans (slow shifting) in one piece. Especially with a 3hr drive home. Car runs well enough to not feel like I need to try and be a hero out there every pass. It runs what it runs, no need to break it to try and prove something.

Don't be logical if you're going to hang around here. You must be biased, unreasonable and quick to get butthurt.

So you bought a C5 Z06 to granny shift? Don't be the stereotypical Vette owner

More power to you if you can slaughter people in granny shift mode.

Very few people can shift as well as Evan (just the example I picked because the guy can drive) and they usually end up breaking ****. Can't blame him for taking it easy knowing he is making more power than the stock **** can handle. Seems.... Smart?

Now I am not denying The Ford GT is a beast. But you are saying that if I bought a C6 Z06 61,900 Then put the left over money I had from not buying a Ford GT you know 260 grand. Cus everyone has that money to throw out into the Z06 hell even half. I couldn't best a GT? Now keep in mind I took the most expensive 2008 zo6 on Autotrader.ca and the cheapest FORD GT I mean sure the ford GT moves out and if I was a millionaire maybe you know I would buy one But I can boost a ls7 vette for less than half the price and buy myself a dam house. I would still buy the vette if I had the money haha.

and edit I would buy a zo6 and a Gt500 if I had that kind of money and swap the engines to **** with everyone on every Ford and Chevy forum on the internet.

I don't give a **** what someone else's cars runs... If anyone is nuttswinging... It's the pussies who live through OTHERS cars.. Mod motors aren't anything special, that's the fact. Gutless ******* turds that need boost or 76valves to make a tire screech on cement. Its the god damn truth. The GT is a cool car, I like them. ANYTHING can run good with boost , that's just the fact.. 4.8l shitbox truck motors are making over 1K at the wheels. Think about that for a minute, then tell me how special a 5.4l mod motor is... If it doesn't hit you like a battle axe between your eyes, that they aren't special, you've got a fucked up brain.

How many mod motors do you see in GM cars? Now reverse that **** and see how many Ferds have a GM engine under the hood.

Most people don't want to go backwards when they choose a chassis so they don't put them in a GM car......Hence why you see a lot of LSx swapped Fox bodies the chassis is a proven platform.

Quit kidding yourself.
You know that people rarely bother putting mod motors in anything because the overweight, overpriced boat anchors wont fit. They are the size of a damn big block engine...

Law, you know that's not the only reason. The court of public opinion picks GM motors hands down over ford motors. Look at hots rods across the country. Looks at drag strips across the country. It's a much higher percentage of GM v Ford motors everywhere. Small block v small block, or LS v Mod. LS packaging is better out of the box, LS power is better out of the create, LS ECU compatibility is better, and finally and most importantly, LS parts availability is better with a much larger aftermarket.
