I ran an Evo 8 in my Trans Am a while back. From a dig they refused to go, lol. Wanted it from a ROLL!

I put busses on that car.

Dunno how they compare to the X's though.

I drove a 370Z and it felt a little slower than my WS6 did. maybe it was just due to having no torque. Either way, it felt good, but a HAIR slower I thought. I am pretty sure the Z06 is going to kill you.

Launching an AWD car isn't as easy as it sounds. I think you will take the Evo. The Z's have no torque and wide-tires. As long as you let the clutch out properly I would think it is pretty spin-proof so after you get rolling, ur G2G.

The 5.0 will need forced induction or larger displacement or weight reduction or a stalled auto to get into the 12's by much.

The most powerful NA 302 I have seen on the street is around 320whp. Keith Craft and I discussed it at length back when I had my '88GT.
