full exhaust, gears (an i think a 4 speed tranny), al ds, electric fan, shifter, and a rebuilt 302 i kept right up with a vert LS1 auto without a problem at all. that was only till like 65 though. all it seemed like he had was an exhaust. we didnt really hit till like 10 miles an hour, wasnt sure if he was gonna go. i never see them around my place, a guy my club with HCI WS6 T/A puts down well over 400 to the rear wheels. the handling just isnt confidence inspiring to me...which cuts out half the fun.

I usually never had a problem with LS1's. Now I i'm shootin for around 450rwhp with the new combo so we'll see what happens. This assumes they are not packing a 393 stroker, HCI. Than i'm dead meat.

If you work hard and train even harder you too will possess 5.0 power some day and be one with the Stang Gods young grasshopper.








Ok, that did it, I'm losing my mind. I'm going to bed before I hurt myself...
