Default H/C/I 5.7 CTS-V vs Cammed E85 FBO CJ Coyote

Both cars had 1 passenger. My cars running like **** pig rich with fouled br7ef plugs I'm changing today and bad exhaust leak.... well the rear end broke the same night on street tires on 1-2 shift on asphalt and its still broken lol.

i really wasn't happy with the race didn't really conclude anything for a 40-110 mph race lol, his 4th goes to 120 or so mine goes to 140, normally he pulls half a car to 120 and goes into 5th then i come back around and fender him out to 140. but we were limited for room due to shutdown room

Nice runs considering the problems, was you exhaust leak causing a false lean and dumping fuel which fouled the plugs maby? And sorry about the rear, it was prob on the to do list, running that power and flogging it, was bound to happen. Hope you get it back out soon.

One thing I really do not miss about my old V1, broken diffs and axles.

My G8 GXP's drivetrain is superior to the V1 drivetrain.

You guys are a good match for one another that's for sure. I just got recommended a br7ef plug to run in my 383 on E85. We will see how it works out this week. Tuning starts today.

I see you've done some weight reduction. How does she run?

Calm down dude, your car makes 500whp that's not exactly groundbreaking in the world of modern muscle.

It is when you're cam(s) only in a 5 liter. +50 over your typical H/C/I LS1 setup.


Of what exactly?


Nope, no time, but the motor will be in a track car very, very, soon. It should be a bit lighter and auto. Car will probably make passes at Lebanon Valley.


Spare, rear seats, mufflers and DS ain't gutted. When you start with a 3700lb Premium, there's your problem. This is a base that weighed 34xx-3500 stock.

Maybe with no gas in it. Lightest base gt I've seen is a tick over 3520 with 1/2 tank.That weight number with the mods you listed is more comical than "tune only" 5.0's going 117 lmfao.


? You mean the driveshaft vibration? Yea, that was taken care of a while ago. I think you're confusing me with my buddy's S/C 5.0 that had an issue after his 3.73 install.
For the amount of money you spent in cams and other supporting work someone could build an ls1 to compete. But I wasnt even talking about that really, 500whp isnt enough for anyone to talk **** nowadays. Your car makes about the same hp as a cammed ls3 but makes 50lbs less torque like I said 500/415 isnt special so calm down

Congrats on downplaying your weight reduction as well, dont worry everyone does it, but it is pretty comical.
