Maybe I used reverse psychology. The LS2 is the one that's kinda by itself but more probable ;)

Yah i see where you are comming from... but i seriously doubt that its more than what i said.... I mean he has a strong car but it doesnt pull like a 408 unless its on tha bottle...

Lets just put it this way. Thacker told me he wanted to run me slick for slick AFTER my pulley. Then he said the Camaro is faster than a pullied Cobra. I was going to run him for $50 until he said that, but if he wants to run for free slick for slick after my pulley, we can do it.

He might be spraying, but he might be spraying an extremely small shot with a big motor just to make you think it's a small motor with a big shot. Would you put it past him?

He might be telling me a fib but i doubt that he would lie about it... and besides i know what a 408 feels like and its pulls way harder than thackers SS......

It's sad when a cammed "LS1" is in a whole different class than a pullied terminator... unless...



hmmm.

One time, I raced at 75% throttle, it was pretty cool. Then another time I pulled some timing but ran 100%. Oddly enough, both times were enough to make people think I was slower than I was, untill I ran at full potential

It is a stock motor... Meaning, it's the same motor that was in the car from the factory... Just with a few go fast goodies. I went for a ride in it, and he let me know what was in it... What the people are saying it is, is true... :goodjob: It pulls very nicely on the highway.
