Meh, Meltdown, my WS6 is just a fun daily that has a bit of go to it. It took you all those mods to = what my WS6 will do on a tire with someone with a bit of talent driving.
Yes, 5.0s can run 12's with low hp. I saw a cam-only + electric fan 5.0 runnin 12.7@103. Trick was it was GUTTED and weighed 2400#, had a 4400stall with a tranny brake and a C4. Thing was a 60' machine!
Either way, if i went with a cam/LT's/tune, it would take FI or a stroker in a 5.0 to catch me. However I remain stock until I am out of college

And I bet you could do those mods and I could still make a stock bore/stroke nitrous 5.0 walk the dog on you.

Even if he was a cool guy, now he will go around talking about how he hung with an LS1 car, etc, etc. That race shoulda ended with you bus lengths ahead. In my experience either go all out or just dont do it at all. My .02

"Finding it hard to believe" is easily cured by a search on this mystical thing called the internet. Notchback 5.0s ran LOW fourteens stock (good driver), and weighed right around 3,000-3,100lbs, depending on year.

Sorry man, your trying to sell me that the 5.0 motor is so responsive to mods that it jumps from a 15-high 14sec car to a low 13sec high 12sec car with tires and one or two bolt ons, no way. Also, until someone can refute my current thinking with #'s i find it hard to believe that a 5.0 weighs comparibly to a vette so how can you try and compare how much relative HP itll take for the two to reach 12's?
