who will win a 01 vs a ss

I don't think you mentioned if the SS is an LS1 or LT1.

LS1 puts out more power, and I think it is a aluminum block so its lighter.
Some people are calling it the most efficient engine ever, Gm pulled a lot of horses out of the engine. I kind of like to think of it as what the Ford 5.0 is to the 4.6 DOHC engine.

lt-1's are 93-97. 93-94 have 285 flywhp, 95 has 295, 96 295 (1st year of the ss 305 hp), 97 same as 96.
ls-1's started in 98 and came with an under rated 305 flywhp, the ss models had 320. Some like the firehawk and 02 ss have an optional 345 hp. They all weigh near 3400 lbs.
lt-1's tend to run 14.4-13.7 depending on driver.
ls-1's tend to be closer to 13.8-13.1 depending on model and driver.
Mine stock with lowest hp rating turned a 14.0 bone stock.
Cobra should beat aa lt-1 but not an ls-1. I have beaten 3 near stock 01 cobra's (cai, exhaust) with current mods.
