    This is why I went on a mustang dyno...except it has me wanting to go on a dynojet now just for bragging rights

    2002 SOM Z28 Camaro - 12.9 @ 104 mph
    1996 3800 Camaro - 13.43 @ 100.77 mph

            you do realize a basic bolt on v8 these days means over 400rwhp and 12s at minimum right? christ even bolt on ls1s are mid 350rwhp. **** for that matter with the way v6s have evolved in the last 5 years a basic bolt on v6 5th gen camaro is good enough to embarass mildly modified mustangs. anyone you run into a fbody, lt1 or ls1 wise,is either going to be some stock one owned by someone who has no interest in racing it or its going to be bolt ons and cammed by someone who does race. thats just the way it is.

            quit worrying about other peoples cars and build something you'll enjoy. stop trying to d1ck measure it against everyone elses cars, you'll just wind up with a money pit that you throw money at constantly.
