LS3 crank is used in crate engines up to the CT525. LS3 cam, while clearly superior to L99 cam, is not used in more advanced engines. This is one spot where LS3 offers tremendous opportunity. Cam + CAI + exhaust could easily net 100hp. L99 does NOT use the same cam, crank or head as the LS3. Modding it WILL make it better, but until you yank the heads/cam, it won't have the same output, and even then, the crank's strength is still a question. |

This is clearly going to turn into a thread of people arguing over saying my standard is better than your auto. Some people dont want to drive around and shift all the time. Some people do. In drag racing an automatic is actually the better unit to have for consistency i mean cmon i dont think we have any pro career drag racers so racing straight up is kind of out really unless just for fun. A good consistent automatic is going to be the best bet in bracket racing. However in the standards defense you can leave at whatever rpm you want to leave at. You would need a stall for the auto. But a driver being able to shift the same everytime uh no. The main reason the standard cars put out more horsepower theres no secret sauce about the engines better. Its plain facts the standard takes less horsepower to turn it than the auto does. So just buy what you like and want both are great cars. Just buy what ya like.

The standard turns the faster times, because it has BOTH a better motor AND more efficient transmission. |
