Question 99+mustang gt vs ls1 camaro's

I own a 01 mustang gt and I have won some and lost some to a couple of camaro's, but stock for stock it seems to me it all depends on the driver, I've ran a best of 14.02 1/4 with a bassini x-pipe with cats, flowmaster's, and 3.73 gears, a buddy of mine has a 02 camaro ss and all he has done to his car is flowmaster dual exhaust, short throw shifter with 3.73 gears and ran a 13.33, I must admit he is a good driver.

Overall, stock for stock with equal drivers. The LS1's are faster than the Mustang GT's.

The Mach1's are about a match for the LS1's with thier DOHC 4.6s. The Cobras are damn quick, and with ideal conditions can dip into the 12s.

Re: 99+mustang gt vs ls1 camaro's

I believe the 03 cobra even with a rookie driver will be able to defeat any camaro out there stock of stock because they can run anywhere from a 12.6 -13.4 compared to a ss camaro's 13.4-13.7

No the driver always matters, one bad shift or launch and you can turn a 12 second car into a 14 second car.
Plus I've taken an '04 cobra from 0-85, and my car's best run was a 13.59

Re: 99+mustang gt vs ls1 camaro's

I love mustang's but I wish the 260 hp got to the rear wheels I fell as tough I have to put in a least $1,500 into my engine just to break into the 13's.

And what is wrong with a 13 second car?

And yes stock for stock ls1 > GT. See StangGt's signature.

Re: 99+mustang gt vs ls1 camaro's

Stock for Stock there's not much of a race to it (provided both vehicles have good drivers, or equally bad drivers).

4.6L Mustangs have the best chance at beating an LS1 from a heads up race, but usually by 60 mph an LS1 is pulling pretty hard. From a roll, there is not much of a race to it (excluding the 03-up SVT Cobra)

Like Redkneck said, the Mach 1 is a good match for an LS1 Camaro.

If your GT is an auto you need to get a chip or Baumanator TCS cause your shifts points are way off 3.73's should put you into 13's no problem.

If it's a stick you need to work on your driving cause 99+ GT 5-speed +3.73's= mid 13's driven modestly well.

But as a whole LS1> 99+GT stock.

" i own a stick and i can drive, every time i see a stock gt it always runs a hight 14 and gears alone will not bring it down to the 13's, i know it isn't my driving cause flows and x pipe do not add much horse power maybe 15 at the most, so i go by my stats and what i seen, not by what some car mag. says

You'd be suprised at just what gears alone will do.
