With full exhaust and intake the LS1 car is going to see a large gain in power and putting the LS1 on top everytime.

Mod for mod.. now that would be interesting (I would put my money on the LS3 though).

ericsnow25 - FWIW my car (2001 Z28 T-Top M6) was 3440lbs full weight (full tank of gas) just a couple of months ago.

Wow, my dads 2002 35th CamaroSS (mn6) convertible with a air lid, and Magnaflow catback & 275-40-17 nitto drag radials ran 12.90's all day long. LS1's are stout and very under rated. 2010's are quick but LS1's are no joke.

Very true.

Remember, as strong as the LS3 motors are (they are awesome, no doubt), the 5th gen is not a light car like the Vette.

So with a 4th gen, you have a 350HP LS1 in a 3450lb car, as opposed to a 5th gen, which has 426HP in a 3850lb car. So the 4th gen has approximately 9.85lbs per HP, while the 5th gen has 9.03lbs per HP.

My bolt on LS1, for example, has approximately 400HP at the crank. With a weight of around 3500lbs, that puts me at 8.75lbs per HP. So my bolt on LS1 should be a good race for a 5th gen.
