I'm pretty sure 6th gen SS puts more gap on the 6th gen GT than the 5th gen GT did on the 5th gen SS.

This thread definitely took a turn. Racing is racing. Run what you brung to the track. If your car is stock then don't line up with a modded car. Each brand can be fast. I was going all in for the new Camaro until I could not get one for less than $44,000 so I got my GT for $33,000 and been using the leftover money to mod it. Your car is faster, I don't care. I like mine you like yours.
I say settle it all at the track not what you found from google or car magazines. Kevin

I will be changing to VMP soon. Will take the car down south a little for a true tune on the dyno.

Good call. I had them do work on one of mine. Nice folks, and the owners wife is not only super cute, and nice but races a 9 second car too...

You have to only look to the vette forums to see the lt1 potential. They had the motor two more years. Near 500 rwhp. Not using race fuel. With bolt ons. The Camaro still makes more power and a ton more torque when both FBO. Both on the same fuel. And a superior tranny. So how does the gap close? It's impossible. All the while ignoring that two people on this very thread a stock tune a8 runs with a header, tune, e85 and converter car. With 3+ mph trap advantage. Yes we have one example of an e85 car. Lmao. Different tracks than we are talking about two cars on the same strip. At the fastest track in the country Fact. If snowblind adds just e85 and converter gossip will have to go internal or go fi to beat him. And that's a direct comparison. Not mixing and matching results across the internet with unknown mods and variables thrown in |

lets wait and see what happens when/if Snowblind runs that combo before we claim the results. And for the record a bolt-on, converter, 93 coyote should be a sub 11.30 car with basic weight reducion (drag wheels, d/s, sway bar). If its not...its tune/driver related.

So how would the gap close all things equal? Edit nvm I seen you added bolt ons plus tune for 11.3. I agree. |

All of the data points to these two being neck and neck with FBO's. I'm not sure how you can't see it. The fact that the camaro starts off quicker stock doesn't mean squat when all of the bolt-ons are added. Most people agree that the LT is a bit more maximized out of the box than the Coyote. Until the G5 camaro starts laying down comparable bolt-on quick times, the coyote seems to have a slight FBO advantage. This is what the data supports. This is of course subject to change if ya'll start laying down quicker times. I would have fully expected it by now however, with the G6 being over a year in production there are plenty of go fast parts available. I'm not sure why we are seeing much more mid-low 11 times out of the camaro. To be quite honest, the lack of comparable times on your fast list surprises me. |

I did settle it last weekend. Beating a tune and tire car by .5 and 3-4 mph all night long. And I still have my warranty |

E85 just got sorted last month. Like I said keep mixing and matching results and ignoring what's right in front of you. What's left to see? You can't compare random cars at different tracks. The lt1 makes more power and torque both FBO e85 with a better tranny in lighter car. You speak of impossibility. The gap closes yes but not all the way. |

The 1/4 time fast lists point to them being very close, with the nod going to the Coyote. You can claim dyno numbers all you want, but until the camaro starts running quicker numbers, you're just not there yet. |
