The front of T/A's is bad ***, I just don't like the side/interior/back/rims/etc.

But I agree T/A's have ***** to go with 'em.

You can take a stock LT1, even a lightly modded LT1 is a drivers race... but if he has exhaust/heads/cam... mild cam or not, then he prolly is pushin 320 horses, and will prolly leave you in the dust.

But atleast your car dont look like ****

I dunno who will win but at least your car looks better
Common misconception...although it's strictly opinion. My buddies '95 Maro is Mystic Chrome and sitting on Torque Thrust II's....it's a thing of beauty. There's not a Mustang on the planet that I've seen that looks better. TA's are a whole nother story. They simply look...amazing.

I think this guy means LT4....
I personally think the T/A's are ugly compared to the camaro's, and mustangs look better then camaro's... granted its all opinion.
Ive only seen a couple nice T/A's here with nice paint/wheels, but they were newer with those badass nostril hoods.

He must be talking about an LT4. If I remember correctly, you can get kits to turn an LT1 into an LT4 and I think it was heads and a throttle body or intake manifold. If it is it should be pusing about 330hp crank.
The LT4 from the factory was proven to be every bit as potent as the LS1... 330crank? Try a little bit higher

A CC306 cammed LT1 with stock heads and shortys puts down 340~350rwhp *head flow limited sadly*.. Adding heads into the mix on an LT1 you are looking at 350rwhp + unless we are talking a hotcam (and Ive seen Hotcam cars past the 350rwhp mark with ported heads.. so I guess it depends)

I know I dropped a 360 Modena from 40mph to 120mph with a CC306, Stock heads, BBK shortys and 3.42 rear in my A4 LT1 car. I was up around 300rwhp with bolt ons on the first engine.. we don't hit the wall as quick as the 2V.

WS6 TA's are the best looking muscle/pony car since the 70's. SS Camaro's come right after that. Mustangs, maybe it's the motor/performance idk, seem too clean cut and teenagerish to make them mean looking.

I love the way the Terminators look though, but hate the new Shelby's.
