That's amazing how 5.0s can get soo much power by just doing bolts on and even a tune.

4 cams 4 valves independent cam timing ...makes a huge diff. Im not really amazed though, the Germans have been doing it for awhile. Ive seen 515+ rwhp from the n/a Aluminator with a tune and LT's 5.0

How many times do I need to tell people this. It's not because of the engine differences. The LS3 makes more power and torque than a Coyote. I hate the displacement argument as well. That's like saying its impressive that the LS3 is making more power than a 5.0 with only 1 cam, no VVT, half the valves, a restrictive airbox(5.0 has a true CAI), cast exhaust manifolds (5.0 has a true tubular header). Also, 1 or 2 tenths and 1 or 2 mph in the 1/4 mile is not a ass waxing. A ass waxing is what the 4th gen F-body was doing to the Mustang GT from 93-04. A full second difference and nearly 10mph by the time the 4th gen went out of production. Ford didn't even build a GT that was faster than GM's entry level 1998 V8 Camaro until 2011. So yes bravo to Ford for building a car that was slightly faster than the Camaro from the 2011-2015 MY's but a ass waxing? That's ridicules.

For L99 tune is a must. Your AFM is still on and TQM as well.

The tune will give you better shift points.

But I just put on my LT Headers (no tune yet) and Cold Air Intake.

Raced a friend's stock 2011 5.0

I drive an L99, and he has the MT 82 (manual transmission) and otherwise stock 5.0

I got him from a dig without problem, around 70-80 he started pulling on me and we stopped around 110 where he had a full car length on me.

A tune is in order! But jeez, is it the weight difference?
Don't feel bad about it. Get your tune and it should make a difference. A cam is your best bet. 5.0s are no joke. I love mine.

Yes, maybe not heavily modded. That was an overstatement. You are right. But you do not want to meet a heavily modded L99 with a heavily modded ZL1.

Check out the fast lists. It is not too hard to get an L99 in to the 11s with boltons and 10s with internal mods with no FI. The Bolton L99s are neck and neck with Stock ZL1s. Same story with stock displacement Heads/cam/bolton L99s and bolton ZL1s. And have a look at the L99 power adder list. More L99s than ZL1s in the 9s. The three fastest ZL1s are shop cars. Same with L99s. Of course there are many more L99s.

Just sayin L99s are faster for the $$ spent.

Im sure the question being asked to you for this was based on your prior comment not stating heavily modded L99's going up against ZL1's. The way you put that before makes it seem as if any L99 can smoke a ZL1.

Annnnddd I'll be the one to disagree with bolt on L99's being neck and neck with stock ZL1's. They really arent. Stock ZL1's are capable of high 11's with most in the very low 12's on street tires. Most bolt on L99's are mid 12's with DR's. Cammed L99's with bolt ons are averaging the high 11 mark on DR's but its kind of a stretch to beat up on the ZL1's without at least being cammed and on DR's

Now you start talking $$$ into them and what they have been made to do and thats a different story for the money spent. Thats true when you factor in cost of the car up front. If you are talking cost of mods alone then....maybe a little different story. Just my .02.

Yea, I'm no L99 expert. I go to Atco all the time and I have never seen a fast L99 or ZL1 there in the T&T nights I have been there over the last couple of years. Very few 5th gens in the street lanes at all. Plenty of 5.0s. I was just going by the fast list and a number of threads in the drag racing section. I was talking total cost.

I did race a LT/pulley ZL1 one night a couple of times. He was running 12.0s like me, but on stock tires. That was the fastest ZL1 I have seen this summer. Sorry OP for going off topic so far.

Honestly i have a built 3v car 07 4.6 that runs really good for what it is and a few factors ..Modulars are expensive to build compared to push rod gm and for me to get my 5.0 coyote to run like my shelby it needed a vortech and then we go back down the same road again like i did with my 07 i had to build EVERYTHING …and even with all bolt ons i at the end of the day my 12 was really nice but it was slow compared to my 07 ..also truth is the getrag MT82 6spd in that car is made in CHINA .wtf it a really weak piece and i didn't want to build around it ..I do like the 1LE is different it looks insane handles better than 90% of cars on the road it has a tremec and is just a cool car also its something different for me..here is a clip of my 4.6 build ...

8000 rpm screamer .7xxhp this car fools a lot of people they think they ran a 5.4 cause it says shelby but they when were done i tell them its a 281ci and they don't believe me …so i open the hood …this car on the roll give my 14 zx10r a bit of a surprise..I recently changed the trans to a t56 magnum xl conversion with a carbon fiber d/s and put 3lbs more boost in it light weight clutch assembly so its a bit faster now this video was 11.5 psi and the 5 speed steel
d/s….I hope i can get my camaro to be as fast in the near future ..i want to have a serious 1LE when I'm done

Sorry to get off topic guys ..in all reality the 5.0s out of the box are a good bang for the buck..the truth is they are 10% lighter and geared aggressively once you start modding the field changes at that point it becomes like football any given sunday..we with camaros have a simpler engine to mod with a lot of support and more CI to work with ..so pick your weapon and Have Fun cause thats what its all about ..I love all muscle cars some more than others but appreciate them all none the less
