those other 2 ponies u mentioned cost a grip! my best friend had a 99 roush i think it was he was paying out the ying yang for that thing, and i liked my gt better his car.(yes i use to own a mustang thats why i hate them so much) and the saleen i only knew a few guys back in va who owned them, they were fast but i think one guy told me he payed like 50grand for that damn thing. thats nuts...50 grand im in a damn hummer or a accura, bmw, benz,tahoe,caddy, go big escalade xlt. thats alot for a damn car!

Hey Will69camaro....I agree with the M3....if and only if they were getting their top times....im tired of debating

ill tell u what it was....the guys where im sposored at all kept ragging me about selling it and getting a ls1. they all said putting money into a 6 was a waist, ill tell u this.... when u are sitting at a light and some dude pulls up next to u the y look at u check out the car and the last thing they do is take a peek of your badges, then they wanna rev when they see rs. i got sick of that so i built something that would make them wanna catch up 2 me and ask whats in that... and im telling u the truth out of 20 cars...mustangs and imports when im at the light they wanna race, i purge the system then they look like oh sh*t, race over. 6 people may have ran me after that. most of my races are against guys in my club just to see how i compair to them. keep in mind they all drive big boy stuff 400hp up to 900. vets, camaros,trans ams, 2 vipers, and some rich guy with a damn lamorghini (i know i spelled that all wrong. i just wanted to get a v6 some respect, its bad when a 4 banger gets more props than a 6...i didnt get that at all so i made her fast

Whats your 1/4 mile?

philly rs · 06-03-2005, 02:56 PM

it hasnt been done for more than a month we got her up and running in time for the f-body gathering, the weekend before we left was battle of the car clubs in bradington i was supposed to go but none of us went because nobody wanted to risk breaking something before the trip, so she hasnt been timed on the track. dyno times mean next to crap so i never posted them, before spray she did a bit over 250. never sprayed because now i want a ls1 and i wont risking breaking anything(it was built to handle at least a 400 shot) but stuff happens and its worth more working than broke lol.i do wanna see what my money payed for so i may be risking it real soon. guys like xeno and rs i know dont wanna hear that because im giving them first crack at the engine when i swap

Sweet

Wow, sounds like you've done a crapload to your car philly. I get what you're trying to do and it's be different because not many people stay with their six.

philly rs · 06-03-2005, 03:06 PM

yeah i did what i wanted to do now im gonna do something abit harder and people will put it down, but many will see and understand what im gonna do. its ls1 time.

will69camaro · 06-03-2005, 03:10 PM

There is a local guy with a 6 banger firebird with lots of engine wor in i think he hit 13s all motor but not positive.

there is a guy here in tampa who built 2 of the fastest v6 camaros in the nation back in the 90's. the guys at the shop told me he was doing the same thing around 97,98. i was floored that i knew this guy, he helped with my car. he was the only one at first that thought it was a good idea for me to build her, never once told me what he had done before, others had to let me in on that. back then im sure that was a big deal to get a 6 running like that, hell now and days its still nice as hell, and all engine is even better

bag91 · 06-03-2005, 03:52 PM

Are you sure the Ls1 will be faster than your 6

philly rs · 06-03-2005, 03:57 PM
