What information are you looking for. They are lighter than the original vette, come with 405hp, have a different block, heads, and cam than an LS1. The mufflers are made of titanium to cut weight. They have closer gears in the tranny, which equate to having around 3.90's in the rear. Stock they are an easy 12.4@ around 116 and some crazy good drivers have gotten 11's with them bone stock. Any other questions?

dont get do happy about your Ls1 i dug up an old MMFF article entitled "331 ways to waste an LS1" but from the factory with a head and cam swap 500hp, no small block ford can ever do that

Ya know, it's weird. I've had several of my buddies go to a 331, and only one them outruns my car, this is all motor for motor of course. His car is also gutted to hell and back and pulls 1.5 short times. He still traps about what I trap on motor. I think I'm gonna go search for that article and see what they did to a 331 to make it run so well, unless they were running a stock LS1...?

That article involved a LOT! of boost. Stop acting like it was an article about motor/motor. I read it. IIRC they O-ringed the dang block.
Yeah, a lot of ppl I know with 5.0's and 331/347 are not able to beat a stock 6-speed LS1 and retain driveability and good street manners/use pump gas. I finally am giving in to Ellis Juan.
