??? I'm sorry, but mee too...there is no way in my books that I see a "bone stock" SS running 110 mph. That would mean that they would have to be pushin about 371 hp at the crank, and GM didn't overrate them that much. They might run 110 with a full exhaust, cam, TB, and all of the minor bolt on's. SS's are rated at 320 bhp, they dyno around 290-300 stock, so that would mean that your bud's car is the "one of a kind" SS that dynoed around 315-320 rwhp stock
. Come on, that is almost the ZO6's numbers.

And as far as the C5's running 112 traps...that is bogus in my books too. In the first place, I have NEVER seen a C5 dyno more than a LS1 Fbody, usually about the same, and the SS's and WS-6's are usually 5-10 hp more. C5's aren't that fast, I beat a 99 Hardtop that had 3.73's exhaust, filters, and I had the disadvantage of a 200 lb passenger. At that time I ran 13.20-13.30's.
Not meaning ti light a flame here, but before you come here praising LS-1's, be ready, because this is the mustang's house...


BTW, 12.90's at sea level for a edelbrock headded, Intaked, and cammes 5.0 is slow if LS-1's are really running 110-112 traps
