Exactly. There's a lot of that discussion going on over at camaro6 right now. Apparently the CTS-V (which is also alpha platform) weighed in at a little over 4,100 lbs even with a carbon fiber hood and aluminum doors, etc. It's kinda fun watching them argue amongst themselves.

Ever since an ATS Coupe weighed in at 34xx pounds, many of them seem convinced that the camaro won't be far from that figure. There are a few sensible ones over that try to insert some logic, but it doesn't seem to be sticking

Probably because the new ones don't come with a turbo that's turned up until it pops, at which point they waddle back over to the local salvage yard and haul out another one, mullet gracefully blowing in the wind. :wt: I digress... And yes, the butthurt over at camaro5 is quite...

I'm sure that's what they're saying on yellowbullet. :wt:

Good luck tomorrow. I'm probably not going to make it to the track much this year. I've been too busy with other things, and I have a few "small upgrades" planned before I start going to the track regularly again.

Found this article: http://www.musclemustangfastfords.com/features/mmfp_120202_2013_cobra_jet_mustang_drag_test/index.html I knew they were going to offer a naturally aspirated 5.0 to compete in some of the lower classes in NHRA Stock racing. However, what I find interesting is that they...

I'll take one of the Ford Racing banners.

What he said^^^^^ It won't be a de-stroked 6.2 (as cool as that would be). It's going to be a 5.4 with bores punched out the same size as the 5.0 coyote, or a coyote with a taller deck height and the same stroke as a 5.4 depending on how you look at it. They aren't going to waste resources...

Wow, man you did very well on that setup. I may need to hire you to find bargains next time I'm making a purchase like that. BTW, be very careful where you store your trailer if you have to store it away from your home. somebody stole mine off a lot with a fence, gate, security codes to get...

Can't wait to hear it person.

I run 12 psi in mine as well. weighed 3920 with me in it first trip out (car has gotten lighter since, but haven't re-weighed it). No issues with stability here, but I run bias on both ends.

Anybody on here ever order a 9" from Strange? They built the ones for the Cobra Jets, so I would think they should fit well.

Thanks guys. When the time comes, I'll definitely have to give them a serious look as their reputation seems top notch. I'm more than willing to pay a little extra if it gets me a better quality engine.

Eventually I'm going to do a built 5.4 4V for my GT500. In the meantime, I keep doing as much research as possible in preparation for the build. I know stkjock has had good luck with his L&M built engine, as have several others on svtperformance. I just wanted to see what others on this board...
