Yea, but it is in a milktoast car that it usualy tears all to pieces unless you make dramatic changes.

When you start getting to 700rwhp you start to find the weak leaks.

Hell you could put slicks on the stock 4th gen and grenade that weak ass 10 bolt.

They break with a lot less power than that. Not sure how weak the camaro stuff is, people are going pretty fast with corvettes and camaros with independent suspension.

the ford GT motor is probably the strongest factory motor in decades. over 1000rwhp. im sure an ls-9 can approach that. the block has handled 1500rwhp.

A horribly tuned 03 Cobra will break at stock power levels.

The motors are damn near bullet proof, to a reasonable degree, when they are tuned right.
