5.0 (5spd) vs. trans-am (auto) - Page 2

Coupe50h · 04-01-2006, 02:50 PM

I know those ss's are pretty fast too, I saw one last night at the track, It sounded cammed, running 12.1's on dr's, trap around 113! not bad.
I did however run an ss one sort of, on the highway recently, the guy was behind me on an entrance ramp just riding my arse trying to get around me, I floor it in 2nd and 3rd, get a little sideway, by the top of 4th I had pulled a car or two on em, but of course with my gearing i had to let him fly by at those top highway speeds

Im all about that 1320 for now.

hey Coupe50h, how do you like those 3.90 gears compared to 3.55 or 3.73's?
