What information are you looking for. They are lighter than the original vette, come with 405hp, have a different block, heads, and cam than an LS1. The mufflers are made of titanium to cut weight. They have closer gears in the tranny, which equate to having around 3.90's in the rear. Stock they are an easy 12.4@ around 116 and some crazy good drivers have gotten 11's with them bone stock. Any other questions?


Whats an Ellis Juan????

Ya know, it's weird. I've had several of my buddies go to a 331, and only one them outruns my car, this is all motor for motor of course. His car is also gutted to hell and back and pulls 1.5 short times. He still traps about what I trap on motor. I think I'm gonna go search for that article and see what they did to a 331 to make it run so well, unless they were running a stock LS1...?

Oh yea, his has trickflow heads/intake, some sort of custom grind cam, and of course, full exhaust.

That article involved a LOT! of boost. Stop acting like it was an article about motor/motor. I read it. IIRC they O-ringed the dang block.

Yeah, a lot of ppl I know with 5.0's and 331/347 are not able to beat a stock 6-speed LS1 and retain driveability and good street manners/use pump gas. I finally am giving in to Ellis Juan.

A C5 with a 6-speed would pull a Vert' Trans Am with a A4 and 2.73's BUT, within reason, you are pretty right on.

A C5 coupe 6-speed will pull on any other LS1 vehicle...........stock for stock with equal drivers.....

im no expert on the LS1. . .

but i did watch a Horsepower TV show where they discribed the power differences in the Z28 and SS, and the transam and WS6,

what it said was that SLP added a different air intake and the exhaust was slightly different. . .

is this correct? is this the reason for more PAWR?? I have personally thought the SS's were faster than the Z28's for as long as i can remember.

Ever since I saw this show, this has been my conseption.

The intake and exhaust really did not add much HP, at least not enough that I would call an SS faster than Z/28. I put these cars on dynos all the time, this is coming from my first hand experiance as well as what I have seen at the track.

He traps slower than all the LS1s I have seen at our track that were stock (most were 105, one was a high 104 but it was a 'vert). But his ET is pretty good. It would take a decent driver in a strong car to pull his ET. His trap isnt very special though.

yes what you have would beat a stock LS1 and prolly stock goat...
do you hand them thier " " at the track or in the street...prolly better chance on the road. as far as I know, the LS1 rode in, has not much top-end.
