Can I beat an ls1 ss???
Can I beat an ls1 ss???
With the addition of my new gears and tuning. I was just wanting to get a few opinions on how I would fair against an ls1 SS auto and 6-speed. U can get a good idea of what my car was doing before the gears and tune by looking at my 1/8th mile times, remember those are with 2.73 gears and untuned. Thanks for looking, Dustin.
Re: Can I beat an ls1 ss???
Dont really remember my et, but I have a 99z with boltons and run 85mph all day long with a 2.1xxx 60' and street tires.
I have auto with 323's
not to toot my own horn but you have your work cut out for ya but it is possible.
These cars get it on, even in auto form.

Depending on how far you race id say, when the speeds rise its tough to keep up w/ a good running ls1 w/ basically bolt ons...6spd wil run ya hard uptop...auto should edge you out
Re: Can I beat an ls1 ss???
Its hard to find a car that pulls away like an LS1 after 60... Its depressing, because you think you're doin okay with the little ol' LT1 until that point... and then it just gets ugly...
Re: Can I beat an ls1 ss???
Thats the truth, my ls1 honestly doesnt fell the fast under daily driving, not until I bring up the RPMs to about 3K. Then I get moving especially at hight speeds above 60. Good luck. Dammit I need to get mods $.

I think with traction, gears, and stall you'll jump ahead at first but I dont think you have the HP to hold him off for long. Just brake once you hit 50
Racing from a roll I think the LS1 SS would edge you out especially if its a M6.

I raced a GTO twice. Brand new with 30 day tags. From a stop he killed me, I had no traction on the moist road up to about 2.5-3rd gear, he had traction control. From a 35mph roll I killed him by about 4-6 car lengths. It was an Auto and the driver was obviously new to the car. No way you can screw it up from a roll though.
