I don't know exactly how many cars but I'd say the Mustang will stomp the LT1 with those mods.

hm. those lt1s were pretty quick. i'm gonna say the lt1 took the stang from a roll.

from a stop the stang probably shot out real fast but i think the lt1 wouldnt have lost by more than .5 seconds.

i just noticed it said vert. so from a stand still the stang probably smoked it.

Well guys, I got the 7 posts... The driver is sitting here with me as we speak. From a stop
Camaro by a car and a half. THey were even till they caught traction, then the camaro pulled hard with the longer first gear.
From a 30 roll, it was closer, camaro by about a car, half car maybe. My buddy was shifting at 5300'ish. Not powershifting or anyting like that. I'm super disapointed, so is he..

Could be pretty close. I hope you have some suspension to go with that motor. All that power isn't worth jack if you can't hook up.
