Default Camaro SS 1LE vs 5.0 vs 5.0

Got together with a 5.0 guy and did some friendly runs. Also, ran into another 5.0 guy, we got to run as well. We compromised and tried to make the runs as fair as possible, everything was discussed previous to the runs.

Camaro SS / 1LE: cai, ported throttle body, LTs and tune.

Grey 5.0: JLT cai, X-pipe, axle-back and Bama v2 tune. We got 2 good clean runs, 50ish roll / 3 honks.

Red 5.0: Steeda cai, LTs, X-pipe, corsa extreme axle-back and Lund tune. Got one clean run, 40ish roll / 3 honks.

**** dude.....hell of a run. The 1st one i gave you the edge. The second one is a tough call. He had a edge but it looked to me you was gonna come back around him. They are basically geared a little better for the mph they run too. Gear that fif gen to top out at 125-130 in 4th like them and watch them cry some more.

Good runs!

Edit.....told you guys it woukd take a tune for a 5br0 just to keep up

No shame here. I just hope to show that 5th gens arent as bad/slow as some people make them out to be.

I have looked into UDP but have seen mixed reviews and not sure what brand to go with yet. Have been thinking of getting Rick C. To port the mani later on. Also, just saw that they released the OTR intake for my car, will look into it.

I think the next mod, might just be a cam. Maybe a night fury or even a tick polluter. We shall see.

I wouldnt mind getting this car to trap 120+

Ive been running the SLP UD for 2yrs now with 0 issues, Yes get a Rick Crawford modded intake if he has a long wait go with GPI thats who did mine. NewEra has a OTR but requires an SLP tray for the scoop. As far as a cam go Tick and stay away from the night fury cam, I just to pull NF cammed 5th gens with just bolt-ons back in the day.

There were definite diferences in our power bands and gearing.

The gray 5.0, was definitely a drivers race.

The red one was more tricky. I was starting a little lower on the power band that I wanted but due to gearing differences, we compromissed. On one of our runs (before i set up camera), I crept on top a bit, but of course I didnt get that on video.. Lol... Seems like cars were extremely close....

And if 62, feels like sharing some tips and secrets, im all ears.... Wouldnt mind pulling mid 120 traps NA.

Both cars are on drag radials I did the work on the white car lol
Game over? Black 5.0 runs 7.20s N/A and 6s on spray so what other driver mod can they do? Its on 15s out back. SMH its easy for ME to hurt feelings on my H/C 5th gen

You can get to your 120+ with bolt-ons.

A 5.0 and 5th gen are about as close as it gets. Can go either way
