Tpi iroc vs 5.0 lx ..

Looks like it depended on what side of the fence you stood on.

I had the same mods as him and mine made 236rwhp 318 tq. Ran 13.0 on drag radials. Sprayed it and made 341 503. Ran 11.6 topped out at 113. Needed some 355s

Your car is always in mind When I think of what I want to do with mine.

What gears did you have?

That's what my low compression LT1 ran the one pass I made on motor, 11.6 at 115 actually. I think it was 368 rwhp, torque didn't mean anything with the converter I had though. HP didn't really either since it wasn't a lockup. Picked up 19 mph with a 150 shot.

My first car, 90 lx hatch with an offroad h, and a k&n ran 14.8 at 5500' of air at a crappy track in west Texas so maybe a 14.3 here.. Pretty good running car I thought at 16. It was a toss up any time I ran bolt on lt1 cars.

373. It doesn't top out until 125 but it was well out of it's power range.

What does an lt1 have to do with anything

Your average stock lt1 doesn't run 11.6 on motor.

You're inexperienced and dont understand physics. There is a difference in reducing drag and creating power. There is also drag through your drivetrain. You can attempt to reduce the drag but you can bot eliminate it.

who said anything about eliminating.... i think hes talking about reducing ^^ which you just stated

You havent created any new horsepower above factory yet. Youve only reduced some drag

the horsepower that was being used to turn those accessories and the stock driveshaft has been freed up. now it isnt much but the main thing that happens is it will wrap up through the power band faster....with minimal accessories, aluminum driveshaft and gears..

You sound like you are under 18 years old. Do what you want, talking to you is like arguing with a wall. Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.

from what ive read from you, its like arguing with a wall as well... and it does not matter how old you are... ive seen plenty older members be wrong on here and rude to Mike.


You win, your autozone fans added 35 rear wheel horsepower

while it may not be 35 horses, reducing all that can make the car run a hell of alot better... its power under the curve and you have to realize that many of these cars put down more power than what is factory rated at the factory... 1993 cobras were rated at 235 fwhp...ive seen stock ones dyno 235 to the wheels....

Mine actually had less mods. I still had a clutch fan.

my 5.0 made 387 to the tire with a cold air kit.

The new 5.0s are just awesome. I want.

Lol you are crazy but sure I will take them! What are you doing with your IRS when you go solid axle?

i want my new 5.0 to weigh as much as an old 5.0
