Bolt on SS M6 vs. Police Interceptor

Just wondering what you guys think the outcome would be. I'm talking the crown Vic as well as the impala and the charger. I looked up some stats online and it looks like the crown Vic doesn't break 250hp and the charger doesnt break 380. Idk about the impalas. However, they also have all that extra stuff like reinforced chassis, backseat cage, etc. and with all that electronic equipment they have to run.
Basically, I think I can take them :P. Just want some feedback. I don't plan on running from the police. However, I do my fair share of eluding haha. Whenever I pass a cop and I'm speeding more than 5 or 10 mph over, I duck down the next side street .
Anyways, let me know what you guys think please.

I give the good ole hood tap everytime I go by one of the Police Chargers. They have one or two sleepers at every department they will radio for assistance when get in high speed chases.

The salesman who I bought mine through was ex highway patrol and he told me some pretty cool stories. Even took me to a few places I can run her without being bothered during the test drive.

We have Impala's and Crown's in my department and both are not even close to the V6 Camaro stats to say nothing about the V8. There are several Charger R/T's in the nearby departments and I am sure one of the guys may want to conduct a "test run" with me sometime.....on a closed track or airstrip of course.

Another department just got a twin turbo Taraus (AWD) for testing and they really like it. That may be an interesting matchup.....I am just going to have to get to know my Camaro better

Then 3.5L V6 EcoBoost is pretty amazing, and really detuned from the factory....

Crown vics and impalas suck. Now the caprice is a 400hp beast. The new Ford SHO is a v6 turbo AWD so nothing to shake a stick at either.

I believe the Caprice is actually 355hp, the AWD Turbo interceptor is 365, and the Hemi CHargers 370ish

What do you mean an airstrip? Is that legal? You go to an airport and run on their strips? I wanna do that!

Legal? Yes and no. I wouldnt try to just drive onto an active runway at a major airport but up here, we have a lot of smaller airstrips that can be used (with permission). With permission, like when we used the airstrip on the army base for EVOC training and it was a blast. Several years ago a car club got to use the same facility (guess the base commander loved sports cars). Anyway most of the smaller strips are great for 1/8 or 1/4 miles....
