I'm thinking a 5.0 with an intake and a good tune should be even with me from a roll assuming everyone is starting out in the right gear?

'11 GT, bolton Termie, Boss 302 ('69 I believe), 331stroked Fox..... He likes to run a little! Nothing like seeing that white head of hair shaking while he's banging gears!
Nice runs Stone! A new 5-oh would need another bolton or 2 and a tire (maybe) to stay in front of that SS!

Thanks, Crash. Been meaning to ask you since you're from the Bay Area. I watch a lot of street race vids on youtube by "bayarearacing". Looks like they are down by a port running or something. You know anything about it?
Gotcha, I understand completely. Maybe we can put together another track day and get him out there then.
Yep, I'd say that guy is a slight gear head. I think I saw a pic of that Boss on FB when you guys all hit the track. He just needs an LS1 in that collection to make it complete! Don't tell him I said that, lol.
I'd love to run a few 5.0s with different mods just to see. Just going off what I've read, etc, looks like a tune should put one pretty close to me up top. I'm thinking if you threw an X-pipe, intake, and a tune on one, it should be in the 115-117 range, which is out of my range for sure. Nothing a small cam wouldn't take care of..
