That right there is quicker than any 0 to 60 times I have seen in any magazine for the automatic. Furthermore, there have been no published times of the automatic equaling the 13.0 times of the manual, the automatics usually running about 13.2, which is about 1 to 2 car lengths.

8 out 10 of the quickest 1/4 mi times are LS3's. Read the threads. And as for tuning out your AFM, it's not realistic. Less than 1/10 of 1 percent of Camaro owners will get a tune. So at the end of the day, the L99 is slower 0 to 60 mph as well as the 1/4 mi.

i dont kno that you are right about this one.. i cant remember where off the top of my head but everything i have read on the 2 they have the L99 stock faster than the LS3 stock..
