A full bolt-on/geared/tuned GT is definitely *capable* of 12s, depending on the driver and conditions.

I don't doubt they are capable of 12's and lower with cams but it would take more than an average driver for a bolton/geared gt to run 12's.

I was just joking with you. I realize (reading it again) you couldn't have known that..so, my fault. I'd hope your setup would be good for alot better than 12.7s.

I said the CAR was capable of 12s, not the drivers

Nothing against mustangs! I had three mustangs before! Both camaro and mustang have a lot of potential with modding!

Those 4.10's is probably what made the difference. You probably should still get him at 120+ but what's the point??

Actually...cams don't do much without an upper intake and/or head work.

and I agree with Dynotune....not the norm, but possible.

Wait for it...wait...wait...But you have to have FI to beat them let the LS1 get FI and it would be different. I just figured I'd post that before someone else did.
