For Shaun ---- stock LS1 vs stock 2011 5.0

i get what you are saying but my car picked up a second N/A with almost the same head and a little bit bigger cam in my 347 compared to the 302.....now when i change the cam it will stretch that even further

touche....im partial to pushrod motors anyway....im just sayin

x2. Nothing like mid range torque.
 
I bet that video was done on purpose (sandbagging the 5.0) just to make the internet pissed off.

Considering he owns both cars, totally wouldn't doubt it. The older the LS1 F-Body gets, the faster it gets. By the time we have grandkids, it will be a stock 10 second car.
 
PaxNovi 5.0 has a nearly stock, auto, 98 LS1 car......my money it walk the almighty 5.0 ;)

I'll take that bet. That will be a fun one, but I'm pretty sure the Mustang will win.

It would need to be someone who knows how to shift driving the Mustang.

I'd like to see it myself, or even participate... Yet again :( No time... Fuck me!

I'll start by saying, I respect you, judging by your posts, and the cars you own and around on a regualr basis, you know your shit. That said I will say this...how fast do you think the new 5.0 is going to be? I mean really..it has be PROVEN over and over again that BONE stock from the factory never had a wrench turned on them, or a single keystroke to the computer have gone 12's. Now you guys are saying they sandbagged the mustang on purpose to let the camaro win. Let's say for the sake of argument that its a 13.20 car, for the mustang to "sandbag" and have a 13.20 camaro beat it, I think its safe to say it would have to be a mid 12 second car, no? Do you honestly think...being "not broke in, with 8 miles, with a new driver, with traction contol on, with a 250lb passenger" that the car would have to sandbag to let the camaro win? Do you really think those cars are going to be that fast? I mean I know like ford products but come on.


Is it REALLY that far fetched that a car that TYPICALLY runs low 13's and can break in the 12's stock, beat a new 5.0 mustang heads up, with no shenanigans? My personal opinion is no.
 
stock 5.0's run 12's on the stock tires all the time.

12.7-12.9 on MANY occasions.

This is why I want to do it ourselves. We eliminate all the bench racing, the "well this guy ran" or "its been proven"

Lets just do it.

I have the 5.0 and am ready to go, I need help finding a STOCK LS1 car. Then after the STOCK LS1 car I wanna try my luck with a bolt on LS1 car

Ok if Bill is up for it, it's my old Camaro ;) I know what it runs

I have to edit my previous statement, it's not 100% bone stock, it has a smooth bellow,lid and exhaust
