No contest for me. 4th Gen Camaro or Firebird with a LT1. Not because of the motor. It is because they have a huge rear hatch that is darn near like air conditioning when you open it in the lanes.

I'm weak.

396 bbc

My choice would depend on track prep. Hot and slick the 101'' WB car, good track the orange Camaro. Merry Christmas Mr. Jim.

In a hypothetical world, with ALL else being equal, what is the answer to this question?

In the heat of the summer? I'd go for the one with the most compression.

From my experience, which pales in comparison to Billy's, is the 396 BBC. They tend to fall-off less in the heat of the summer compared to the SBC EFI combo. But......... Give me good spring or fall air, and I'll take the LT1.

I see you didn't mention the 2015 LS "street car".
Probably because it just took a a big hp hit and it's a dead player now.

As the topic says "Keep Working on Your Stuff" would fall into the guy who is trying to run on a budget,or as we are doing trying to get back into the swing of things before dumping tons of $$$ into our combination. 4 and 3 years ago we could barely run the G/SA 12.00 index. We finally blew that engine at 6500 rpm's and decided to build my own engine. Last year we had a best of 11.292 at 115 mph on our own engine. CP Pistons,Total Seal Rings,Bullet Cam and several other pieces. This year we made a cpl subtle changes,can't change many without testing each change. Hopefully we can pickup at least 1 to 2 tenths by the end of the year which will get us to 11.10s. We will keep working on our stuff till there's no more that I can do myself but for now it nice to know I can build a 255hp 350 that will run 7 plus under the index for under 5 grand.
