I think we should be worried. I've heard of many 392's going well into the 12's stock.

No worries... dodge claims low 12's, but I've seen a few on our track and the fastest i've seen so far is 12.9... so they're not as fast as what dodge says.

It may have 470 hp/470 trq but it also weighs 4260. Motortrend ran a 13.0 @ 111.3 & Inside Line ran a 12.6 @ 112.1.

Nice car, overpriced and too heavy. Really a driver's race, launching a whale is not easy.

Yes the 392 will edge the SS. Don't bet against it vs your stock SS.

I got beat by one at the track, very unexpected and surprised me! Im cammed on stock tires and ran a 12.87 at 113 he beat me off the line (auto) he ran a 12.92 @ ??? (Can't remember) I pulled him hard on the big end and crossed first but he got a hole shot win. He came over later and asked if I was spraying ,lol. Nope. He was like "damn! you scared me!" They are no slouch at 4100 lbs. It was an exciting race

Saw one run a LS3 SS last night, edged it out by 2 tenths in the 1/4. I honestly think its because the SS owner couldnt shift well. The 392 ran a 12.85 and the SS ran a 13.05, MPH was roughly the same with the SS slightly ahead.
The 392 is no slouch, I'd say its a fair race between a LS3 SS and a 392. |
