They are known to pull 300+ to the rear wheels........ What thread????
Well dollar for dollar I bought GM,reasons Being
1. I get GM Discount
2.Performance
3.After owning my Vette I came to love the LS1 engine.
If you guys want to know why I love it so much look at the design of it, 6 bolt mains,15 deg heads, Heads that are built just like a FORD!!!And they make excellent power,
Mine only made 290hp at the back wheels stock,but then again mine is an auto. SO I would guess around 360 at the crank these engines have always been underrated.
And most importantly I bought my Z28 off the lot for 18,000.00 brand new,How could I ask for a better car new for the dollar?

No one ever mentioned RWHP on this thread until the last two posts. We were simply stating the "rated" numbers for the SS. No flames were thrown from what I could see....:shrug:
Man you guys are sensitive was I flaming? I wasnt trying to.
just stated my reasons why I went to an Fbody .

unch:Actually there is no "Offical" Team Camaro at Chevy as of right now.....Which means by the time a team is developed and the car goes through R&D would mean a '06 or so release of a new Camaro....If and when a new car is released it should be at about 400 Crank HP...This is all depending on what the new 'Vette will be......Chevy wants the 'Vette to be Viper territory with the C6 so you have to figure close to 500HP which would mean a 400HP Camaro wouldn't be so far out of the picture.....
The '01 and up Camaro's and Trans Am's have been pushing close to 320 (way underated HP closer to 350-360) for the last 2 years which means that a 350HP Camaro would actually be the same exact car......
Just letting you SVT guys know what you might have to be dealing with in a few years.......;-)

Tony -- I thought you were dumping that Camaro and jumping on the SVT bandwagon??? ;-)
Well I think I may have found a way to keep the Camaro and go to school at the sametime, just need to see how it works.....Don't worry by the time I'm ready to buy new cars, I will have both a F-Body and a SVT in the garage...Hopefully...
In garage door one-----'06 SVT Ford Lightning
In garage door two-----'06 SVT Ford Mustang w/ new 5.0
In garage door three---'06 Chevy Camaro w/ LS6
In garage door four-----'06 GMC Denali w/ 4X4
Ahhhhh a guy can dream can't he...:shrug:

I have that dream too....just different cars filling the slots in the garage! I like door #1 & #2....I think there will be an M5 behind door #3, and a Range behind door #4. You never know what will be residing on the SECOND FLOOR of the garage though ;-)
