Why would I say 400 rwhp with stock trans, stall, gears and suspension?

That's what I'm saying.

I made about 410 hp and 393 torque, and took down a 2003 zo6 with headers and a tune, six speed. Not only this but I did it on the highway where the z06 really likes to get busy.
So I say yes it could happen.

I meant c5, and now that I see your talking c6, I say "not no, but hell no". I think you have a better chance from a dig. I seen a 402 trans am race a c6 from a dig and beat the z06 by 4-5 car lengths. They did a run on the highway and the c6 left him like he was standing still.

I was at the track last week its a 1/8th mile track. got up against this guy with an new c6 zo6 and beat him but thats only because he was spinning the whole way down the track. he just got the car like 3 weeks before that. next run he let his dad drive it (who races a 4.9xx pro mod) dad kicked my butt the whole way down the track it ran a mid 7. have to give it up to the vette that is one bad machine.

I've seen a f-body do a 10 sec 250hp shot n20 with a 305 block. Once again though, built for track. If we were to say a pure prepped track car, slicks suspension etc with only a measly 400rwhp, then yeah it'd win.
Unfortunately the thread didn't mention 10k invested in suspension so I'm thinking cam/heads, mild mods trying to go against a c6 z06 with 460rwhp on avg with a suspension that puts it in the top 3 of the WORLD on the nurburgring, let alone be able to pull 11's all day on a track on street tires...
My vote to the z06 and it's pointless to keep tossing mods on the f-body in this comparison... might as well be a ricer talking about throwing a blower on his 4 banger on how he COULD get fast...
oh a vid when the 305 was pulling 11's... I'll find the 10 run somewhere..

PS, i was at corvettes at carlisle yesterday and theres a guy there with track slips proving his stock z06 ran 11.38 and 11.2 on DR's... So, now find someone with 400rwhp that runs better than 11.38. btw, his 60's were 1.9 and 1.82 for those runs.

It was a good show, luckily the rain held off.

was it a red Z06?
#59
yes it was a red z06 with gunmetal wheels... he did the dyno there i think it was 460 something but if hes on here im sure he could tell you.. and yeah he was walking around with a ranger hat on.. The show was pretty good.. The mallett guys were cool, and i talked to the VP of fidanza for a while about his sts twin turbo c6, among other things, very nice guy..
