It's all about what you see I guess.

As of now, no one in a 5th gen Camaro has really went fast with a bigger ci motor. Sure LMR went a 9.96 and ARD went a 10.26, one has a 427 and the other has a 468. You gotta see where I'm going with this.

I'd buy one if I knew it would run faster.

well if thats the case no one shouldve gone any kind of stroker motor's with the ls1's since some have gone 9's cam only right

owners seems to be pleased with the car, although for some reason he said it just gets sidewayz in 1st and 2nd and 3rd wonder what would cause that

Now I see where the power under the curve is. I was looking at peak power. My car makes 538 492 heads/cam. How much of a gain would I see going to a 416 ci motor using my same cam and heads?

Id expect at least 30 rwhp and 40-50 ft lbs of tq.

Given the same car/specs etc with the addition of cubes it's pretty much mathmatically impossible for the car to not be faster.

E.T. is typically more of an indication of how well the suspension is setup. More power usually results in a faster car, as in MPH.

Why are you so critical of other 5th gen owners who run faster than you?

OrangeChevyII

What did I say that was critical? I said they had bigger motor's, I didnt cry about it. Is this not ok to state the obvious?
With E.T come's mph, me personaly, thats what I'm worried about.

I am looking froward to racing David Brooks this spring, he's a super nice guy.

It's perfectly fine to state the obvious, but your statements all seem to have an underlying theme to them, critical of the larger displacement 5th Gens, and it was most obvious in the previous threads that got locked/deleted. It doesn't sound like you've let that go yet, either.

Not necessarily. Haven't you ever seen a Top Fuel car blow up mid track? If MPH comes with low E.T.'s, then why is it that they'll run a 9.xx at 80 MPH? Why did TSP's SBE car go slower in MPH, with their fastest E.T.?

Good luck to you, that should be a good event.

OrangeChevyII

The threads that have been locked are not because any of the statements I have made, other's who agree or disagree with them have caused them to be locked or deleted.

Were not talking about blowing engines up and rolling through the traps here, we're talking about bigger ci. I said that I could see where the bigger ci shortblock made power under the curve when he posted the graph. I used the 5th gen cars as an example, I was not bashing them. End of story.

U LUZ

man i really like the way both of your cars look .....

spray a 300 shot on your motor and then pick all the pieces up and try to build another one...its not cheaper.. and you cant compare stock rods pistons or crank to better built higher quality pieces they are going to weigh more ...making a little less horse power but will take a brutal beating. and if he ports these heads he will make 45-55 more rwhp.

i would love just for the Stock LS3 power in my fbody.

For my car (beeing as it weighs less) i would benefit more for me just to get a topend setup rather than a strocker kit. Only because i know i wouldnt get traction with the LS3's tq.... so more torque would do me no favors....

then again... I own an Fbody.... Not a badass vette

We do Ls3 swaps all the time.

Danny would not stand a chance from a dig, I don't care how much power he puts down. Very impressive numbers no doubt. The car looks sick!!

Come on over, I love to crack confident people's ***, lmao!!!

THE_302_KID

nastyc5 called me out on a wednesday night while i was at home watching tv. we did a 20 roll and a dig spray on spray tore dat ace up lol . had lots of spectators too. an on video. what it feel like to get beat by a kid 3 times in your life time with three diff cars ? maybe u should buy dannys ls3 vette to beat me lmao. yea i know ur gonna wanna run again , trust me my car comes out like a ****** on crack !
