Indeed, I would like to see a comparison of a tuned/pulley GT500 against the Henessey Camaro, just to make it more interesting on that front and the to see if the respond well wtill to those mods.

Well really, we as Camaro lovers still gotta hand it to the King of the stock factory production rides--------the GT500. Chevy needs a factory response in the same price range to be apples to apples

We already know the GT500 responds to a Pulley and Street tune, moving the GT500 to >550Rwhp, which makes medium to high 11's at 120-124mph (Still under $50k total).

Yeah that's to buy the complete car from them. You can get the 550 package for $14k installed from Hennessey, so $35k+14k=$49k. Still would be a better deal to get the GT500, I think.

Does that come with a warranty? Or should I say can you trust them?

Yeah, 3 year warranty. Or apparently you can buy the parts for $10k and install them yourself (I don't know if you still get the warranty).

Not really a fair race. However, it's all for fun so no one should get offended.

Agree, that is why GM needs to build the Z28, and forge the motor in the Z28. For $50K you get the Hennessey-mobile pretty much maxed out at 600HP, or you get the stock GT500 at 540HP, which is easily modded up to 800Rwhp.

I'm not exactly sure how it's fair, especially for the Challenger. And if you consider that fair let's put the Roush P51 up against it. Or maybe one of the Saleen's.
