Whats up here?

Okay just asking for some incite guys.

But I have an LT-1 which I got from a second owner.

I don't know what is done to it.

I got it in December and its been to cold to rip apart.

But anyway main question.

I raced a 2000 LS1 camaro M6
and keep in mind i have a LT1 Auto.

I smoked him by like 6 cars.
Just wondering what you think could be done to my car.

I also raced one of those 08' SS silverado trucks
and beat him by 3 cars

Do you have a pic of under the hood? Do you know what gears you are running? There is so many possibilities of mods I could go on and on. Fpr starters Chip, exhaust, headers, rods and rockers, air intake aftermarket... Take some pics lol

Alright I can do that.

and the cold air intake is stock and has a hole in it.

It would take more than that.
Why did you buy a car without knowing the mods anyway.

what...

but yeah some pics might help, but the best thing to do would be to talk to the previous owner, pics are not going to show what has been done inside the motor

Races against other cars isn't the best way to judge performance either. As mentioned, get some pictures and maybe we can identify some stuff for you. Also, maybe if you are by a speed shop and they are doing a cheap dyno day it wouldn't hurt to see what kind of numbers it is making on the rollers.

2008 Silverado SS.... do they even make one? The earlier Silverado SS trucks were overweight, underpowered, 4-wheel drive 15.5-second/88mph trucks.

in 2005 they made a 2 wheel drive that "boasted" 345 hp with a 1/4 mile time of 15.1 @ 90.5 - the thing came standard with an extended cab

it must have been modified then, because scientificly it was 3 cars faster than a SS.

I'm getting that feeling too. And the thread is starting to get to the point where it is just street racing and not LT1 engine related.

they did - from wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dodge_Ram

SRT-10 - This is a regular or quad-cab body with the Dodge Viper's V10 engine, 22" wheels and Pirelli tires, lowered suspension, bucket seats, body modifications, and a spoiler[citation needed]. The 2004 version was available only in a single cab with a 6 speed manual transmission with a Hurst shifter[citation needed]. For 2005, Dodge released a Quad Cab version of the Viper V10 powered truck with the 48RE four speed automatic transmission from the 3500 Ram with the Cummins turbodiesel engine[citation needed]. In 2004, the truck won the Guinness record of "World's Fastest Production Pickup Truck" of 154.587 mph (247.3 km/h)[1] This record stood until bettered by the Australian Holden Special Vehicles Maloo R8 in May 2006.[2] SRT-10 production ended on June 30, 2006
