Default Camaro LT5



For what it is worth we chassis dyno-ed my car on Friday. 812 HP to the tires. On winter blend 93 octane fuel.

I have put 200 miles on the car so far and did get a chance to stand on it yesterday. First off it is sketchy fast on 32 degree tires. With less torque than the 427 engines it is a bit easier to pedal to keep straight.

The high boost 6.2 liter sounds different from the lower boost 7.0 liter. It revs quickly and hits hard. My un-scientific test of a sprint to 150 mph this car is on pair with my past projects. (Of course closed course it a professional driver). [emoji57]

On the prototype mufflers that we had made. They are LOUD. Like squirrel dropping out of tree loud. Like setting of my neighbors car alarms LOUD. You know LOUD. On a positive note it has a very deep note at idle.

I will get Hooker to redesign the mufflers and add resonators. We are doing a little R&D for Hooker Black heart.
