If the camaro is running DR on a stock 10 bolt he's running a huge chance of blowing his rear. My buddy went though 3 rear ends in a matter of 1.5 years and that was in a 3rd gen with a 305 making like a little over 200 hp.
V8Killer do u know all the mods the camaro has done to it? |

ok, i'm guessing it's an SS? I'm not sure... so here's the specs in case no one knows about them...
Engine Type aluminum alloy pushrod overhead valve 16-valve V8 Engine Size 5.7 liters / 346 cu. in. Horsepower 320 @ 5200 rpm Torque (lb-ft) 345 @ 4400 rpm Transmission 6-speed manual Wheelbase / Length 101.1 in. / 193.5 in. Curb Weight 3439 lbs. Pounds Per Horsepower 10.7 Fuel Capacity 16.8 gal. Fuel Requirement unleaded premium, 91 octane Tires P275/40 ZR17 Goodyear Eagle F1 Brakes, front/rear vented disc / vented disc Suspension, front/rear independent short-and-long-arm with coil springs /solid axle with coil springs Drivetrain front engine, rear-wheel drive PERFORMANCE EPA Fuel Economy - miles per gallon city / highway / observed 18 / 27 / 20 0 to 60 mph 5.3 sec 1/4 mile (E.T.) 13.7 sec Chevrolet Camaro SS (2000) 320 hp and only a "baby cam" and an exhaust makes me think there is more work done to this car than just that because 373 whp from those 2 mods seems VERY high as i've stated before... I don't know for sure no, it's just IMO. |

Wow man that's a great write up. All cars are different in a way as we all know and respond to add ons differently for instance his old 2000 SS had full bot ons and ran a 13.4-13.5. That is with him driving, my other buddy drove it who weighs about 170 did it in 12.98. So I believe the weight factor is going to play in my favor. That 320is is at the crank I would assume correct? When you swap stock internals out on ls1's it can really liven them up. They got cam's for that car with bolt ons that can get it into the 9s. I can't remeber the name of the cam buts its the biggest one they can put in the car. Thanks for all the info man you didn't need to do all that lol.

I think it will be a close race, and will come down to driver more than anything... based on hp to weight ratio here is what you are looking at. If you figure that from what Red Zed told me that it was 373 whp that he got that with JUST the cars stated weight of 3439 lbs that is 9.21 lbs for each hp. Adding his 400 lbs to that and it raises it up to 10.29 lbs per hp. I am going to just assume you are making 320 hp. I don't know the exact weight of the car, but i've read the touring is a little over 3400 lbs... then i've read it's under that. At 3400 lbs you're looking at 10.625 plus your weight which will put it up a little higher because of you weighing a lot less than your friend. I also don't know exactly what kind of weight reduction you or he will do and how much each of you can lose, though it's not going to change things a whole lot. Someone with your mods should be able to run a 12.6 or 12.7 with a good run... most of the guys running under that have gears and have a lot of 1/4 time. Win on lose look at it like this... your still driving a nicer car that isn't a chevy |

Stock 285. I won't know till after the tune and all parts added. Did somebody actually weigh that for the windshield fluid I remember seeing that in the weight reduction thread but no actual weight? I am just going to do tools and spare tire.

I believe I read it is 42 lbs for the spare, tools, etc and if you have the sub, that's another 8. |

If the Camaro hooks up you're toast because the Camaro has the potential to launch very very hard. The thing is street worthy Camaros have a tough time getting the power down at launch. The F body with the LS1 (I had a 99 SS MT6) is capable of unbelievable burn-outs, but burn-outs don't get it done at the track. You have to be perfect to win. If you both have perfect runs he wins. Your 60' time needs to be superior for you to win.

V8killer. If you could get specs on the cam that would be awesome lift, duration @ 0.05", and the LSA stock specs are 0.467" / 0.479" int/exh Lift 197/207 Duration 116 LSA If its a baby cam itll be around .520-.530 lift, 220-230 duration and prob 114 LSA Prob good for like 40-50ish whp depending on a bunch of stuff. Itll also show me if hes making top end or bottom end power. you can put around .600" of lift in the motor stock. wouldnt be an advantage bc you prob wouldnt be able to flow that much on stock heads |

Well guys there seems to be a lot of misconception about the old ls1 in this thread. I'm the guy who put all the mods on Ryans (the op) car and also done work to the 00 SS he mentioned hes racing. The camaro only has headers a small cam and intake, stock gearing and all and yes it made 373HP which is on the low side of the spectrum for that car.
Anyhow I think it'll be a good run if the 370 gets from the hole well, but when the Camaro gets around 2nd gear watch out I can tell you it pulls like a freight train up high. My old 02 SS with the same mods and a fast intake made 417HP and 385 FTLB tq, the OP can attest to how that car ran from experience... That car had a 231/237 600 lift cam it worked pretty damn good Last edited by scarface364; 09-12-2011 at 02:57 PM. |

Nice site here guys. I can't wait to run Friday night against Ryan (the OP). I'll be on 275 street tires so your 315 Mickey Thompsons should get you out of the hole a little better, but it's your death on the deep end.
