To this I say if he built it himself, he didnt match parts up right, Or he just sucks at driving.
) car because it makes less power than stock. ergo, if any sensible person would only put a crate motor in thier ride that's more powerful than the stocker (esp if it's an upgrade), and his choice of crate motor is less powerful than a stock ls1 (these dyno at more than 330 on an engine dyno out of the box w/ and w/o accessories), it is a VERY weak choice.

a <350hp crate motor is weak because, while you can buy chevy crate motors making at or around 300hp, there isnt an lsx owner anywhere who would put on in his/her (now that's some politically correct **** ) car because it makes less power than stock. ergo, if any sensible person would only put a crate motor in thier ride that's more powerful than the stocker (esp if it's an upgrade), and his choice of crate motor is less powerful than a stock ls1 (these dyno at more than 330 on an engine dyno out of the box w/ and w/o accessories), it is a VERY weak choice.

I have a buddy who has the 347 but it's stroked with H/C and a few other little goodies and he runs 11.50's with it in his lighter fox but he had the same exact motor in a slightly heavier one and ran 12.16. Hope this might help you a little. Oh this one is full bolt-ons as well.
