Good video comparison.

I'll race that guy with my GTP. That would be a closer race. Your SS will kill it.

Here is a dyno you should see. 2000SS and a Stock Bullit mustang (rated at 5hp more than GT, mainly suspension mods) as well as a 99Cobra with the fix done.

I am changing my vote to the mustang GT because the power the two cars have is close and even though the LS1 has more under the curve, the GT has 4.10's to help it get to the right part of its power curve and once it gets there, it will be easier to keep there b/c its a 5-speed. The GT is prolly in the 270-290 rwhp range. It is probably withing 20rwhp of the ls1 and weighs about 1-200# less. That means hp/weight they should be identical with the GT having better gears/tires. I think the GT will win this one. Not by much, but im changing my opinion and having to say the GT has better odds if the guy can drive. If not, i give it to the A4 ls1

hmm, wanna play the price game eh? The z28/formula had the same base price as a GT from 98-02, give or take a few hundred. The SS is obviously the same car with visual mods....the few suspention tweaks may actually make them slower in the 1/4.

Since when did your car sprout 3.73's? You said you had a K&N, exhaust, and hypertec chip.

If your SS is stock it came with 3.23's, you ca check this by looking at the codes stickered in your glove box or on your driver's door. If you se a GU5 code, it has 3.23's if you have a GU2 code you have 2.73's, GU6 is 3.42 (normally in a M6 car)

You have 17" rims, dont you, or were those 16" still??? I think 17" so 1" rim difference wont make up for the 3.23 vs 4.10 and he has better tires.

"guess you will go 4.10's too" ?? I suppose you will re-program your ECU as well then.

Gear swap will run you around $700 because you must swap out the carrier in a GM car to go from 3.23 to 4.10 if i am not mistaken, also you must purchase gears, have them installed, and get your ECU re-calibrated. I am not sure about teh carrier issue though, can someone enlighten me?
