Default GT vs Z28

I was looking at how much each car weighed and it said that a 2001 mustang gt weighs about 3417 pounds. And that 1993-2002 z28 weighd 3,306. Is this rite.?? I thought the only reason 1999-04 gts could be the same as lt1s is that the gts weighd a little less.???

The reason the 99-04 gts run with the lt1s is because of the PI heads, not the weight.

I just thought that gts weighed less since theyare a drivers race with anlt1. Dont they dyno at like 250rwhp stock. thats like 25rwhp more than a gt and they weiugh 100lbs lighter to.

The lt1 has 25 more hp and weights 100 pounds less, that is a drivers race. 25 hp and 100 pound weight difference would put the lt1 running about a tenth faster than the gt. If this is right it would be up to the reaction time to decide who would win.

Its a drivers race with the LT1s, definitely not an 'easy' kill, but doable. LS1s will rape 2v GTs, especially non-PI.
