It is a modular ...so our 3.8L is basically the same as the 5.7L, right? They are both pushrod engines! They designed the new 5.0L fresh, not as a derivative.Quote:

did you just say faster/cooler about the camaro? oh my...
No, your missing the point. It isn't really refreshed...its the same "concept" as the Cobra motor that wasn't blown. Just more displacement, VVT, and a different IM.Quote:

I can't wait to rape one of these with my Trans Am...funny thing is that I won' even have to use the spray :D

I'm betting low 10's on the 150 and a new tune though
Nitrous FTW
Screw the baby bottle. You women :p
i know plenty of 400hp camaro's/trans ams that go 11's with some decent tires. then with a 150 shot most are mid 10's. if you can drive mid 10's should not be an issuie. for 9's............ well thats gonna take great suspension, great driving, great tires, blah blah blah. might need some forged pistons to take the amount of spray that its gonna need to go 9's also.
but mid 10's is deff doable if thats the power it puts down. i see it all the time.
