Default RE: LS1

Yes, JD and I and a few other LS1 guys have said that many times. In fact, he stickied an LS1 vs Mach 1 thread that discussed that, but "SS = Z28 = Firehawk = WS6" isn't in the title of the thread, so we must still deal with people (most of whom own none of the above vehicles) who insist that certain models are faster/more powerful.
In the case of the Firehawk, it's possible that a coupla mods done by SLP do the intake and exhaust might make a wee bit of power, I saw a dyno sheet that supported that. I don't think that those differences should amount to 35 hp, though (345 rating vs the Z28's 310).
