Just being honest, i find that hard to believe. If its a equal match...MAYBE a LT1. But no way a LS1. You dont have anything that makes power except the off road pipe and maybe the headers. A new 99+ GT would walk a 5.0 like yours by the end of 2nd gear...a trans am wouldnt be close. I know because it happends to me. I had a buddy with a 03 GT 5-speed. We both just had exhaust...pullies...short throw. The very basics. I would have the edge off the line...the front of his car would be at my door. Bang to 2nd gear...its dead even....get ready to go to 3rd...and im starting to see tail lights. Im not the BEST driver. But i can hold my own. The power just isnt there on the top end.
You say thats where the 5-speed comes in....LS1's come with 6-speeds. Whats your point? Unless u are talking about a auto ls1. And then, i still cant see it happening but u've got a better chance.
And nothing is impossible...i just think that the LS1 has to have a lot of crap holding it back for it to be possible. Terrible driver. A TON of extra weight. A automatic tranny.
Dont take my post as a flame, its just when u compare your car to theirs....its a 300rwhp LS1 vs. a 220-230rwhp stang?And i think thats being very generous with your power. Thats like saying a h/c/i 5.0 wont be able to beat u to 100. Lol...if thats true then everyone is wasting their money.
Do u know details of this trans am?
