5.0 vs LS1
Well I got what I wanted last night. I was out at a friend's house with my girlfriend and we had left to go to the waffle house to eat and meet some more friends there. I pull out onto the highway and see a catfish with foglights behind me. I knew then it was a LS1 more than likely and not a V6. I let him get along side of me and its a Z28, I was hoping for a SS.
He gets along side of me and has a damn loud exhaust! Much louder than my dinky Flowmasters and dumps. I reach in the back seat and open up the bottle because I want to pound this car into the ground! My 5.0 looks like a completely stock 1995 GT with 17" wheels. So I guess you could call it a sleeper? Anyways I drop it into 3rd gear and jump at him. I hear him downshift and he floors it. I didn't bite and I flashed my highbeams at him to slow down. He gets back next to me and I have the rpm's around 4,000rpms. I honk 3 times and let him get the jump alittle but it seems like we went at the same time. Through 3rd I put a carlength on him and about 1.5 or 2 more cars on him through 4th gear.

And you don't think 3-4 carlengths through 2 gears is impressive on a 100 shot @ 550psi bottle pressure against a modded LS1? hmmm ok

Either way, good run... a decently modded fox body can put a hurtin' on an unsuspecting fbody.

Right now all i have is headers, ory, hptuner, lid, dry 75shot, 3000stall.
I have 241 heads and a .571 .573 cam i literally just recieved like 20min ago from a guy in canada.
Yeah considering ABSOLUTLY NO ENGINE WORK. I hit 12.80 spinning with that setup last week @BMP here in FL. i always run into people like my buddy john who has a pretty bad 5.0, but he has a fi 5.0 ho crate with gt40 heads, and cam, with 100shot, with a 5 speed.
who cant run with what i have. Read my story. I couldnt even stall cause we were on the street. This guy john ran a 13.4 on the motor.

They do look like Catfishes, Other then that they look good. Nice kill I like the SS's to, thats because they have that duck tail spoiler and the hoodscoop

Now I have a 302cid motor with less technology against a 346cid motor with more technology. My car ran 100mph with bolt ons and with BASIC h/c/i should run 110mph off the bottle. Keep in mind I'm still at 302cid with stock pistons, rods, rings, crank, rod bolts, blah blah, and your 346cid motor with a 75 shot of nitrous runs 106mph...Wow...The 5.0 is a stout motor. 

a kill is a kill but if you had to spray a motor only LS1 with just a few bolt on's then I would have been pissed!
now spray for spray would have been a way better kill! I had a 90 coupe with just a cobra intake,shorty headers,H pipe,flow's,3.55 gears and a 100 dry shot and went only a 7.6 1/8 on the sauce and a 8.2 motor only but was faster on the street for some reason and I would get kill's against cars that I would normally lose to at the track?

(thats the motor I'm building but with a plate nitrous system to go with it) hehe
