I should have no problems messing with modded LS or LT-1's when my project is done. I mean heck I SOLD my sprayed LT-1 for a V6. I better not go slower then what I already have.

I agree with everyone else, The two extras cylinders make those cars pull harder on the top end.

There is no replacement for displacement............except for a turbo charger......

My car ia really quick 0-40, slow 41-65, fast 66-95, and it gets to 118 decently fast. It might be the low miles, but my car is acually pretty stong on the top end since I got shorter tires.

How many miles do you have on it. Mine want's to keep on going. It will probably do 130.

computer shuts off the fuel at ~110 no way to go above that without custom computer work.

mine would go abotu 120 maybe 118 like people have said but since I did 3.42s it shuts down around 110, maybe more like 108, not like the speedo is an accurate account but just what my car did.

My car is slow in third gear.... its acually not too bad in 4th acceleration up to speed limiter.

1st and 2nd are pretty nice in my car jsut 3rd gives me toruble.

ohh well we will see how the car runs with some EGR problems and some hesitati0on msot likely from the igniton wires do to exhaust gasses blowing on them...

btw low miles are not the only indicator of a strong running car...

I have almost 122,000 miles and mine runs great and have heard of some cars running horrible for the mods added with only 50k on the clock.

its more importatn how a car was taken care of.
