Im just bugging , nothing serious

 

i know

 

Don't know your mods but I'd say the Z06 beat you 3 times and let up 3 times.

 

musky runs a mid 12, im sure he beat the zo6 3 out of 6 times

 

Good kill then, any f-body running 12's get a bow from me.

 

Your talking about a done up lt1 vs a stock ls6. I would be pi$$ed if I had a modded lt1 that could only equal vette performance.

There isnt a whole lot of difference between the lt1 and 2000 and older Ls1s performance wise. Its going to come down to the driver.

I do think the Lt1 is underrated but to say the Ls1 is overrated is a joke. The modabilty of the Ls1 is reaching new heights every month. It seems like every day Im reading threads on NA 500rwhp that are steet cars/daily drivers.

 

home ported heads and a lt4 hot cam is hardly modded up. why should musky be pissed?? cause he beat a 80+ thousand dollar race bred c5 in his lt1???

obviously i was joking around when i say its overrated, but to me it just seems that way around here. anyone can type in HP numbers on the net. lets see someone local do a heads and cam on there ls1 and take it to the track, then if it performs good ill give it a

 

I'm with Roy I am yet to be beaten by any LS1 at Mission I just have minor bolt ons

 

Of course the sky is the limit when it comes to modding, but that isnt a two hour bolt on job either.

I didnt say musky should be pissed, I said I would be. I could care less that its an 80k vette, 360-370rwhp is f*ck all nowadays.

It wasnt obvious. My apologies for seeing it the wrong way.

Does that mean everyone is full of ****. Dynos are doctered? Vids are edited? Seriously, you would have to be a moron to think that. Im a little confused with that comment.

That will be done in the off season and if I dont hand a stock vette its a$$, Ill be pi$$ed.

Not trying to start a p!ssing match with you Roy. Just like your defending your motor, Im defending mine. The way I see it they are both awesome.

 

well we will have to wait till next year then to see the first local heads and cam ls1, lets see what it can do at the track and on the dyno. if you dont hand a viper its *** ill be surprised.

 

I just realized I screwed up my wording. We only raced 3 times but we were equal every time. He'd actually pull on me by a bumper at the start of each run but then I'd catch him and we'd stay even. It was kinda wierd it actually felt like I had more highend power and he had more low end???? I think it was the gearing. I believe the Z06 has higher gearing then my stock 3.42's. So he was pulling when I wasn't and Vise versa.

All this talk about LS1's versus LT1's?????? Come-on guys we're brothers!!! I obviously like the newer LS1 power plants over the LT1's but there is a price difference. With my limited budget I'm very pleased to have a car that can hang with a Z06. I'm pretty sure if we were equal drivers the Z06 would of taken me. They trap around 116mph whereas I'm trapping 113mph.
Technical BS aside it was awesome. There are a couple other things that happened I don't want to post, I'll tell you guys when I see you at the java hut

 

All I have to say is the name Joe Overton: Fastest 4th Gen F-Body n/a ANYWHERE....I think 9.6's with stock LT1 block, and 23 degree heads.

Also, the car that won the LS1Tech N Vs. S shootout was a high 8sec LT1 with stock (highly ported) LT4 Heads and Intake.

LS1 is the way I would go if I could start over but anyone who thinks the LT1 is too outdated can just look at the results on the track....and I don't mean just locally.

yeah the z06 has the same close ratio gearing as a 93 m29 t56.

 

Yep LT1s are awesome, as for superior ignition system? Umm... exclude me please, I have the same LS1 coils with 2" spark plug wires on my LT1, its called LTCC LOL, the only part of the opti I kept was the optical sensor which referenced the PCM for cam degrees relative to crank position, & the LS1 uses a magnetic pick up for the crank sensor, so mine is optical & LS1 is magnetic, the rest is the same, 8 coils LOL.

Anywho LS1s are a 10X better engine, being one to work on them & see the design of the heads/engine in every aspect its just that much better!

As for horsepower, they are the same when you are talking big POWER, sure an LT1 can get some 15* heads & eat LS1s all day, but mod for mod there is no comparison as from what I see on the board, & as for the design & enginuity I say LS1 Hands down & I'm proud that GM has the best engine in the world, she gets 30MPG on the highway & still makes over 400HP at the crank stock, well the LS6 but you konw what I mean, what other manufacturer can beat that in this WORLD naturaly aspirated? Noone, not N/A & still get this kind of gas milage. They are also very reliable & best of all, still use ONE cam & 16 pushrods LOL!

 

Well said.
