I guess what i am saying is that unless you build a RACE car that you are gonna drag with slicks and suspension that rides like ***, the ls1 SEEMS to be a better choice.
Constant 1.64 60fts on 100% bone stock suspension running 17" ET Streets.. Very comfortable ride too I might add.. Mine isn't a race car it's an everyday street driven car that runs strong, launches hard, and makes good power... Your not going to get any low 12 sec slips by having low hp so what is your deffinition of low hp.. I'm putting down right at 310rwhp and 330rwtq.. Just Exhaust only and K&N filter not bad if you ask me.. For a small V8 motor..

LS1's are NOT high 12 second cars stock. They are mid to low 13 second cars in stock trim. There are a few high 12's out there, but not very many.
Where I race in Atco NJ over 95% of the stock LS1 go high 12s. Maybe you guys just can"t drive! I would not call that 1 out of ever 100 Know it all.

You're an idiot. I've been to Atco, E-town, and Island Drag and it's stupidly insane to say 95% of the stock LS1s go high 12s. You're pretty grammatically challenged, so it's not really a surprise that you'd lie this stupidly on the most respected LS1 forum on the entire internet.

This is off topic but since it is going no-where, LS1 guys will love this. My bud just sold his 93TA and the buyers brother has a Mach 1. My SS was just sitting there and he started asking all these questions and wanted to hear it run. I agreed to take him and his brother for a spin. Pull out and let it warm up and he is asking 1000 questions, and telling me his car has longtubes, it has 4:10's it has nittos....He was pretty cool..I told him to hold on and I nail it ! The guy Flips out, his brother is screaming to him sell your mustang, sell it...I took these guys for a wild ride! Getting sideways through all 2nd gear revving to 6800, he's yelling look how high it goes!! Dude it was so funny! " How can I get my car to pull like this??". I told him this is with little traction and 3 people in the car. He was cool though. He said he will let me know who wins between the Mach 1 and the LT1....I honestly have not heard from him. You mustang guys arent too bad after all! It was fun. I scared the **** out of them. Halarious!!

Be careful and have fun!

Same here. E-town has the highest number of 12 second stock LS1's I have seen; not atco.

I would say it is more like 10% as well.

Horse power TV just had a 4.6 with long tubes and a Vortec and it put out ........286 to the rear. You gotta love Ford. M O R O N S

holy crap. how old are you? that was one of the dumbest replies ive ever read. way to keep on topic

again, to my arguement, if ford is so dumb compared to you, why don't you go there and try to show them the correct and non-moronic way to build an engine, which in my opinion will be kind of difficult for you when you can't even build a coherent reply.

Hey ah.....VIN I really don't understand your comment but I can tell you actually drive a Mustang just by you ignorence. Get a Geo and we all will be safer with people like you off the road racing. Also, pot head, I did'nt say I was smarter than Ford, that's GM you are confusing me with. Seriously, you gotta take your meds!!

Yeah I LOVE it! Gotta love just mashing the throttle and setting sideways with warm Drag Radials! Nice lope, good idle, more hp/tq at every rpm...its great!
I started a thread for 226 guys in the dyno section if ya wanna chime in and give your opinion.....

Now I just need a built 12 bolt/T56 & slicks so I can launch at 5000 all day! just kidding....gonna have to wait on that....next is N20 baby! Gonna drive'er till the rear breaks then worry about it.... unless I find a good deal lol...

Oh, sometimes people misread my SN lol.... my last name is "Stone"

Yeah this one is so driveable, on my first drive I was thinking I coulda went 228/228 lol.

Im gonna see what it does at the track as is, then on the spray, and go from there...then I might upgrade to something bigger, but Im gonna wait and see what these sponsors come up with...it seems they are coming out with more and more smaller cams that perform as well as the bigger ones...PERFORM, not dyno lol...

Have you had yours at the track? If so, what et/mph you running with what 60'?

No times yet, actually we are going to go this weekend if I get chance. My brother and I have just taken over ownership of a repair shop in Ft. Lauderdale and I am working like a mad man! I have had a ton of 5.0's and the quickest was 11:80 and this is noticably stronger than that with a little traction! This pulls all the way to my rev at 6800, then bam! I'm sure it could go higher. Bigger cam 230"ish and 7200RPM AND WHOA! I love it though!! I just need another 500hp to be happy! Amen

I am beside myself right now.

You don't understand my comment? And based on what I posted, you think I drive a mustang?

Hows that paper your writing on nuclear physics going? Harvard should be sending you your acceptance letter any day now...

FYI, i drive a 93 firehawk, and a 96 TA. and even I (a GM guy) think you are a complete moron. What grade did you get up to in middle school?

Too much talky talky, shut the pie hole and check on your optispark. That janitor thing must have really gotten to you. Smell of bleach and pinesol a little depressing huh. Good day ....

Bro, you have like a disorder and you need to calm yourself. This is a post, get a life and go pick on some imports or something to bring joy back in your life. O K ??? You missed a spot.
