Raced an LS1 SS

well it was a 3 lane, kind of highway...I see in my mirror a newer LS1 SS, so he gets right next to me...goin bout 45-50, and hit....well lets just say the LS1s got too much high end for me...off the line it would be close due to my torque curve...but damn high end that thing was nuts!!!

like they say "LS1 3rd gear pull" because this is where the LS1 simply kills its competitors.

In a race between a Mustang GT and an LS1. The LS1 will slowly pull the GT through 1st and 2nd maybe put a carlength or two. But once it hits 3rd gear it just gets up and goes. LS1 3rd gear is magic....or something like that.

Ahh the 35th anv SS, very nice cars i love the race flag stripe they have.

he gives cars a head start and then pulls on them like crazy
Thats what my friend does to LS1's. They see it as a normal 2001 Mustang GT, not many would assume its packing a T67 turbocharger under the hood.

turbo v8's are bad *** its kinda unfair because smaller engines usually try to match displacement with FI but when you have both WATCH OUT

I have heard there are a few twin turbo LS1's in Houston. I can only imagine the 3rd gera pull on one of those.

the LT1 can handle more HP to the engine, if you get 900 hp from an LS1 I will shake your hand

I don't know about that. I'll have a good 90-100hp on a stock LS1. Mind you, I am putting down close to 420 at the wheels.

Although I was referring to running one from a roll. I have no clue how nasty those LS1's are from a dead dig.

stock they run mid 13 so that should give you an idea on how you would do against one.

lol from a roll i give it the ls1 if equally modded since your not stock if you run better than a 13.5 you will beat a stock ls1. good luck finding a stock ls1 to race.

Well stock i was running 13.5s and 13.6s consistently. From a roll, you'd be suprised how hard a sup pulls up to 160
