5.0 vs LT1

I was crusing to the hair salon w/ the Wife to get her hair done. Real relaxing ride there. All backroads you can go 65+mph on and just cruise. There were 3 roads equaling 10 miles a piece to get where we were going. 80% of the trip backroad and peaceful.
Well we're about to merge onto some highway, and I see a Camaro hightailing on my ***. He gets there, and just cruises with me. Eventually, we merge, he behind I, onto the highway. He's on my buttocks the whole trip down the merging ramp, and as soon as it leads to the 2 or 3 lane highway, I see no cars coming, swerve to the far lane drop it into second and punch it. He does the same, only going to the lane directly to my right. We're neck and neck in second, I hit third and pull like a freight-train on an overloaded donkey. He's toast. I hit about 110 or 120 and shut it down, him buslengths behind me. I slowed down to a crusing speed, and eventually he caught up. We both gave a little wave, and we seperated.
Real nice LT1. Dont know what was done or what tranny, but real clean. It was white with a red stripe down the middle

Wrong. I think I'd know the difference between a v8 Camaro and a v6. ESPECIALLY since I've owned one.
What do you mean I dont have a lot done? Well no **** I dont.. this isn't a honda where a intake, tune and exhaust nets 5hp. Doesn't take a lot to make a 20 year old American v8 move. Buddy.

Army, chill, I think he was being sarcastic, lol.

Good kill! What do you have done? Sounds like a real nice setup.

No, he's a tool. He's posted in another thread of mine bragging about ****ing hondas.
But I'd rather not retype everything that's done.
Basically, a ford explorer intake, heads, a nice beefy cam and a loud healthy exhaust

Well there's no way a 12 second mustang can beat an LT1. Lt1s didn't run 13.7-14.3 stock. So I don't know where he got his info from. <---sarcasm.

Problem is i don't think he runs 12's
If he really does have a 12 second 5.0, then more power to ya pal and congrats

sorry i just don't like Mustangs.......and i have a hard time beliving their owners........

And Army can i ask why as a Mustang owner you have to post a bunch of kills about Camaro/Firebirds on a Camaro site

Eh.. doesn't matter what ya think.. fact and oppinion are two very different things
I post kills on here because I've been posting kills since I've owned GP's, my f250, Boneville ssei, SunBird, new Malibu etc. I've been doing this for years now, and I figured I would just keep going :P

Alright bro , my bad, sorry for talkin mad **** but you seemed like a noob with a 5.Slow.....you didnt have many posts (neither do I) but i figued u just joined to talk **** about Camaro's , didnt realize you have been a member for awhile

but anyway i belive ur car runs 12's cause its not that hard to do with one of those cars, and truth is ive seen many 5.0's beat Lt1's
**** i got beat by a built 5.0 once when i had my 99 Z28
i was pissed.........only 5.0 that ever got me

but i got to ask, out of all those GM's why not a F-body?
