VVT and DOHC does allow for a wider range of tuning possibilities, but that does not mean that a conventional pushrod engine has no tuning potential.

It's pretty obvious that was supposed to say superior.
No reason to be a prick

Honestly, it looked exactly like you were using some new urban-dictionary sort of slang.

When you're in your mid-60's, you'll find yourself in similar situations from time to time. Have fun.

In his defense I had no idea what you were trying to say either!

I can! no offence man. I cant stand the 4th gen Camaros, Ugly. I love me some WS6 though. I know they are the exact same car, but Pontiac added the few quirks that it needed to look good

This. I love the WS.6, but I can't stand the 4th gen Camaro's aesthetics. I would've bought a Firebird but I got a hell of a deal on my Terminator. I was very sad to see my favorite GM brand go extinct. But I guess they did it to themselves.

If its so easy to rub low 12s with just a tune, by all means go do it and prove me wrong. See I actually race, and see what cars run at the track and with what work done. I don't base my points on some jack a$$ you tube videos!
I will run low 12s factory stock ... Well maybe not me because I have never been drag racing before but there are Boss's that have run low 12s factory stock before.

I went Friday and it was just too cold. Got 3 run and my best run 13.1 at 110 was my first run which spun really bad on the 1-2 and through second gear. The next two the car just spun off the line so I called it a night. I will try again on a weekend during the day where it is not in the high 40s.

You make it sound like you're driving a 600whp monster.

Did the 1LE vs 5.0 race ever happen? Hard to figure out with all the offtopic back and forth bickering.
