I agree, anything that is 120+mph in the 1/4th gets my respect on the street.

Compared to the 5.0 yes the LT1 does have good heads. Compared to a DOHC 4.6L Ford motor the LT1 has dog **** heads. Are we done here?

Well there is a good reason you have a higher mph than me. You have a bigger motor, a bigger cam, and a big dog six speed. Just you wait untill I spray this bitch of mine and see what kind of MPH I can pull.

Umm I don't believe FI is a bolt-on. I'm not stupid, but I haven't run into any bolt-on stangs that can hang in my area, only ones with real potential are completely dragged out.

Plus 88blackgt N2O is a power adder, you said bolt-on's and then threw a power adder in the mix - that's not what we're talking about.

this is my first post in this thread. OP has a bolt on car w/ a 100 shot, and several who have posted think that 302s dont run well w/o a lot of work. thought thought a stock longblock 302 w/ a 100 shot would be a good comparison.

Good kill OP, what does your car run - the bottle?

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! This the joke of the day? I spanked tons of 5.slo's with my bolt on LT1 back in the day. It actully got boring after a while....

That is true, the 5.0 is a hell of a lot cheaper to mod than an LT1. Oh and was that 11.9 run with a 5 speed or an auto? I think the record for a bolt on stalled LT1 is 11.8.
