i think a stock GT will beat a stock LT1 camaro

 

Yes it will.....I've seen it done on several occasions

 

yes. and i kinda like racing cars that i would completely rape. its fun

 

i know about the 350, a stock mustang can definitely take a stock lt1. i've done it many times. one of my good friends has a corvette with an lt1 and i take him all the time by car lengths. granted my car isnt stock but he was the first person i raced back when i bought my car and it was stock (except for a catback) and i beat him back then too.

 

yep, so whoever said a stock LT1 fbody beats a stock 281 is a retard. i had to add some personal attacks, it gets these threads going.

 

6speeds make the car slower.... and stop going by crap numbers like that. and dont lt1 make less than 300 hp anyway. the PI motor'd GTs win, always... it happens sorry.

 

i thought he was taling about a camaro? i dont know i never seen a lt1 vette press the gas.

 

I have to agree with Greg on this one just because I use to be a camaro guy before I bought a stang and know what they can do

 

if i had video i'd post it. not much else i can say. you dont believe me, thats fine. im not going to get into a pissing contest with you over the internet.

 

it was a corvette, i dont know what year because i dont really know much about corvettes but i wanna say maybe a 2000.

 

I'll test this theory myself dammit. My mother in law has a 95 Camaro SS 6spd with only exhaust, and I'll race her (let her husband drive) and get back with the results.

 

like i said i dont know much about corvettes it's red and the same body style as the early 2000's. cant remember if it were stick or auto but i dont remember him saying anything about a 6 speed, i would have remembered that. did they come with a 5 speed? i do know for a fact that it was a lt1 because our other friend that was racing has the ls1 in his camaro and he would walk the corvette too. mostly up top.

Thats what I needed to see! The last guy I raced had an LT1 with a 150 shot. I asked him if he was on the stock block and he said " Yea they come from the factory forged." I didnt buy it at first but I dont know that much about chevy engines either.

Well Heres how that race went just FYI . I had 800psi in the tank. stock tires and stock tune. Me and the camaro lined up on the interstate at 40mph. I had the spray on. I honked twice then I hit it after the third. I pulled a good couple of cars on the camaro through that gear. I shifted faster than he did. When I got into the next gear he started pulling next to my door and when I got to about 5500 RPM I had to shift but he didnt have to because his car was still pulling. I lost to him by a few cars when that happened. After that we cut it off at about 125 id say.

The reason I say I can beat this car is because with the new changes (genx2 kit and fixed A/f ratio) I have consistent 1000 psi all the way through the powerband. Before when the bottle was cold the pressure would gradually drop as I sprayed it. Im sure it wont be a huge difference but this camaro has 25 less hp than the last one I raced.

 

race him its the easist way to find out for all of us

plus i wanna hear a story.

 

Let us know like I said my buddy has a 95 SS i believe green with a gear shifter exhaust y pipe all of that my 01 beat it the car wont run faster than a 14.0-14.2 he cant figure it out....Keep us posted a good kill story for us Ford guys is always good to read...remember ls1>lt1 i dont think you should worry about the LT1

 

A few pics of my ride are posted in the Pictures forum.

 

I just realized that the compression on the LT1 is 10.4:1 . I think the stock 03 has a compression ratio of 9.5:1. The LT1 also has powdered connecting rods and probably not forged pistons. Wouldnt a 150 shot be a bit much for a stock 10.4:1 LT1 engine to handle? Are they that strong?

 

My 95 Z28 was damn fast with just a few goodie's on it.There was no SS in 95.The best time in my 95 LT1 was 12.6 with a 6 speed.

Now my LS1 SS 01 was a beast.Never ran it at the track but it felt alot faster than my 95 Z28.The biggest problem with both was being able to hook up.If they can't do that you have a real good chance.

And yes I used to love Camaro's but I'm much better now
