I was coming home from work today and noticed a mineral gray gt trying to catch up to me in traffic. I slowed down so we would get stopped at the light together and waited for him. We talked alittle and he told me he had a C&L Mass air, Bassani Mid-lengths with x-pipe, flowmaster catback and 3.73s. He also said he had Comp 270 cams, which I'm sure he did cause it had a rough idle and idled almost like mine did when I had those cams.
Anyways, he wanted to race from a dig and from a 30 roll so we decided to go right there. When the light went green I came off real easy to avoid too much spin and he probably moved out by about a car length, but man did I make up that in a hurry once I got in it. By the time I shifted into second I was next to him and then I started pulling hard. Hit third and kept pulling ahead. I let off after about 6 or 7 car lengths and waited for him to catch up. He told me he knew I would kill him from a roll but wanted to try anyways. We went alittle farther before we could get open enough for another run. We went to about 30 mph and I dropped it to second, which put me right in my powerband. He honked three times and hit it, I nailed it, my 315s hooked with no spin and I pulled ahead, grabbed third quick and walked easily away. When I went to get on thew freeway the guy waved and sped off. I love it when you beat someone and they still have the ability to be decent and wave. :rockon:

Nice Kill, what are your mods? Im interested becuase I have those comp cams also, and if you killed it that bad you must have some serious shit. Again, good kill.

I agree its awesome when people understand its all in fun, no reason to get hurt becuase you lost.

What kind of power can be expected from a GT with those cams? Just curious.

thanks,

I'm not stock by any means. I have a build short block, longtubes with full exhaust, an Accufab single bladed TB, a LMAF, 4.10 gears, Vt blower cams, and a Novi 2000 with air to air intercooler. My last dyno I did 447 rwhp and 418 rwtq at 10lbs of boost with massive belt slippage.

They did a cam install on Horsepower TV last weekend on an '02 GT and picked up 11RWHP. :lol:


yea, I saw that...but given that the car was virtually BONE stock and had NO tuning, 11rwhp from a camswap on the 2V is not all that bad :beer:
