You have a nice car man dont get disappointed. Everything you have on there I wish I had on my car. I think if you had drag radials on there maybe it would hook better and get you better times. I'm just glad you are trying new things and posting new videos
Alonso Arellano thanks man. I appreciate that. And yea now that i got the red car up, i can start playing with the 1LE. I was bummed because I thought it could do better 🤷♂️
I really enjoy your channel. Keep posting and sharing. I also have a 2017 Camaro SS 1LE. You and I have the same goal which is to make the car a great road course car. I'm taking a different path to gaining more power then you did but hey...to each their own in that if you meet your personal goals then that's all that matters. My plan is to keep the car naturally aspirated. With just a cold air intake, Kooks headers and Borla exhaust I'm dyno'd at 437 rwhp 438 rwtq. My goal is 530 rwhp. I have all the parts just waiting for the speed shop to finish up a few other cars. Just to share, I bought the MSD Atomic Air Force intake, ported Jet throttle body, Brian Tooley Racing Stage 2 cam and GPI ported heads. From all the research I have done and talking to multiple performance shops, we all feel that those additional parts should get me another 100 rwhp. So again 530 or so rwhp. Like you, I took my car to the strip how it currently is and I know you don't care what anyone else is running but again, I'll just share. Here's what I did. 60' 1.968, 1/8th 8.041, 1/4 mile 12.313 @ 115.67. I'm here in Jersey so winter has set in so I won't be able to get my car to the road course until late April but I'm anxious to see how the new parts and power add up on the course. Looking forward as always to your next 1LE video. Merry Christmas!
What people don’t grasp it’s one thing to make a pass and run 12’s in a car capable of 10’s. It’s takes skill to make a car run a proper number for its power and weight. (Manual always requires driver skill. Auto set up right a monkey can make decent hits) Edit: I’d auto swap my car tomorrow if wasn’t so damn expensive. Autos are consistent and typically faster. Converters are magical.
The track time is not terrible of course you can get more out of it. I never tracked mine. You will eventually get it to where you want it to be. I like the cam it sounds good you did a great job on the build and your son.Everything takes time and money. You will definitely gain subscribers when you do the work on the supercharged 1LE.💥🚀
Dan, did you log any data, curious what your IATs were? The canned Whipple tune starts pulling timing at 125 degrees. Best trap speed I have seen with the stock 2016 SS except the Whipple, drag radials and canned tune is 123.6 mph at 138 degrees IATs, in DA of over 4,200. Drag radials would definitely help. Hard to compare with mine being an A8, but with drag radials and a 1.6 60ft, I have run 11.17.
Badass car man! My Bolt-on E85 A10 19 SS ran 12.6 at 5,500ft DA on stock 275 rears tires. My MPH was lower at 113 range. Getting practice, playing with the tune, and on drag radials I bet you would be 10s all day. Seems like that’s not your goal though and I’m sure ya had fun. Thanks for sharing great vid 👍🏻 BTW have to go with the cam chop for exhaust note
A 10.5 tire and a good launch around 5500 it'll run a decent number, seat time is the most important thing but that's with any racing. I'm liking the 02 more, I'm not much on the new body style, but I'm old school. Hell it's taking me this long to just start liking F-bodies,lol.
Put some sticky tires on that car in some cool air and it will be a whole different animal. That track has come a long ways since I used to race my 67 Camaro out there back in my 82nd ABN days 1991-94, it was only 1/8 mile track back then.
Also I wouldn't be let down by the car's performance. I would be let down by your performance. 2.2 sixty ft and still ran a 12.2 at 121mph the car has potential.
The LS sounds great, even on that Flowmaster. I was wondering, did you lower the air pressure on the rear tires? Don't be heart broken, the 1LE is a beast and sounds awesome!
I don't have much money... But I am saving up and I want to build a street Chevy S10 ls motor with nitrous, but I've never been in a high hp car before, just a 98 sn95 mustang that felt so gutless, so will my s10 feel gutless without nitrous on the street? What's your opinion, if so then I might go the supercharger route. I'm looking at 600 to 700 wheel with a dual or triple stage nitrous setup just for adjustability....nitrous isn't cheap xD and I'm looking at 30 grand I'll go 40 for extra add ons. Oh and btw, your car did pretty great with the tires you had, a set of bias plys with that sick shifting... And I'll also be fabing up the frame with a 4 link and what not, so I'm pretty sure it's realistic
My buddy has a chevy s10 xtreme with a ls1/t56. Stock motor with full exhaust. Its a quick car for sure but still slower than my stock 2017 mustang gt. His s10 weighs about 3300 my mustangs about 3700. His truck is definitely fun as hell though. Hed smoke me with nitrous but me with a blower he wouldnt stand a chance
dont be dissapointed its low 10 second car better driving practice sticky tires maybe better tune i say because my 2018 ss intake axle back exhaust E85 tune on radials is low 11s at sea level
I just put kooks headers and cats on my 2010 ss with works exhaust and it sounds nasty as he'll. Do headers if you don't have before cam. If you don't have header u need them to max the power.
Nah, with his power he should easily be close to a 10.9. My 2019 SS with the 10spd is running 11.6 with just a set of slicks. No mods. If I added a whipple and supporting mods I would easily be running 10's. My previous car was a 2016 Mustang GT with a VMP Stage 2 blower kit and was running 10.7's@128mph with an auto. The problem with manual trans cars is that they're harder to launch and on Camaro's, you'll easily break an axle with a slick. So he'll need to get beefy axles and an upgraded clutch if he's going to be serious about launching the car. But its a 1LE - he should be taking it to a circuit track anyway.
A 2002 Camaro would have had an aluminum block LS, unless it was swapped with a truck engine. As for the drag strip, unless you have spent a lot of time there I wouldn't worry much. People always do pretty bad their first time out, esp with a manual. And a small amount on the short end has a big effect on the total ET. It doesn't look like you did bad, but more practice will net better results. Also if you didn't last time, pop your hood while you are in the waiting line. Since you are not moving like on the street a lot of heat can build up and heat soak the engine bay, not to the point of overheating but it could loose a bit of power.
Dolby109 original block had a broken rod and chunk missing out of the block. I built an iron block 5.7L Gen III LS. There’s a playlist with all the vids on my page.
The reason he disappointed is because you have no TRACTION. Ford and chivy still don’t get it after all these years - they just keep adding more POWER. Smh
Dude you make no sense, first you said you dont drag race and you aren't that good,second you said your tires are worn,third you didn't have the car in the correct setting for drag racing, so how is it the cars fault? That car is more than capable, put some drag radials on it and let a friend that can drag race a manual car drive it,and I guarantee you will be impressed!
He's not blaming the car, he's blaming himself. He even said its his first time taking it to the track so of course he's not gonna just do a John Force burnout and click off a 10.5@135 from the hit. That shit takes practice. Even more practice that its a manual trans and he's risking breaking axles if he tries to do a hard launch on some drag radials.
That 2002 ss sounds shit. After working at an exhaust/muffler shop for 8 years, i can say magnaflow exhaust aounds AMAZING on thos old camaros. New ones not so much. Maganflow would be my vote. And youre right, those old foxbodys would sound so sexy with flowmasters.
@@lovescamaros1 yeah keep telling yourselves that. You aren't too bright if you are calling a car that literally runs almost identical times to a camaro slow. They both are capable of high 11s at 115+ from the factory. So you can call them whatever you want, it just shows ignorance and ultimately doesn't matter after they've been proven over and over again....and they don't take a 6.2 liter to do it either.
Ambient air temp was 94*. DA was 2800
I just bought the 2019 Camaro SS 1LE. I'm looking at camping mine. Also do you live in NC? I'm like 20 mins outside of Charlotte.

Rob, I did not. I completely forgot my HP Tuners at home. I was expecting 124-125mph

I like the sound of the 2017 a bit better, both sound pretty cool!
Do you know what your hp is
.thks
you did ok i had the same problem with a whipple and a automatic just spins
You don't need to build that car for a road course, gm did the work for you the 1LE is a track monster
A 10.5 tire and a good launch around 5500 it'll run a decent number, seat time is the most important thing but that's with any racing. I'm liking the 02 more, I'm not much on the new body style, but I'm old school. Hell it's taking me this long to just start liking F-bodies,lol.

As far as idle sounds I prefer the cammed sound in the 2002 although the 2017 sounds amazing.
Also I wouldn't be let down by the car's performance. I would be let down by your performance. 2.2 sixty ft and still ran a 12.2 at 121mph the car has potential.
Love ur cars . U need more subs
Chris Sullivan thanks brother. Hopefully one day
Saw you at Fayetteville today!!!
Wasn't to sure it was you until I saw the plate.
Nice man. Say what’s up next time!
Both sound great, but I like the 2017 better.
121 is good. Really all that matters when traction and shifting is a concern.
The LS sounds great, even on that Flowmaster. I was wondering, did you lower the air pressure on the rear tires? Don't be heart broken, the 1LE is a beast and sounds awesome!
What is faster better or what would you guys take?.... 2017 SS with Whipple Or stock 2017 ZL1. Thats it ? Which you pick?
ZL1 all day. Zl1 is everything an SS is, but better in every way, including already being supercharged and you need less mods to make more power.

Should turn everything off hold down tc button. Should run low 11 with drag radials. Never use launch control at the drag strip.
What did your mustang run first time out after sc?
S/C S550 gotcha first pass ever 11.3 at 132mph
With some tires and a lower DA, expect mid 11s easy. Seems like the low end torque needs to be tamed.
Have a stock c6 z06 and my best time was 11.8 stock tires. I’m surprised that SS did that should have done way better timing
What rpm are you shifting at?
Andrea Clayton 1st gear 6k, 2-4 6400rpm
dont be dissapointed its low 10 second car better driving practice sticky tires maybe better tune i say because my 2018 ss intake axle back exhaust E85 tune on radials is low 11s at sea level
BS
I just put kooks headers and cats on my 2010 ss with works exhaust and it sounds nasty as he'll. Do headers if you don't have before cam. If you don't have header u need them to max the power.
Guysmiley 2” headers and a rotofab intake are next 👍
Dude you crazy if you take that exhaust off that 02 Camaro...that car sounds nasty..
Both sound hella good but I’m going with the 02
so with slicks its an 11.6 car
Nah, with his power he should easily be close to a 10.9. My 2019 SS with the 10spd is running 11.6 with just a set of slicks. No mods. If I added a whipple and supporting mods I would easily be running 10's.

It’s all that wheel spin
Not great but still good . The potential is there .
I Agree, my cammed 18 Rocks!
I like that color green
Damn bro I thought you were building it for straight lines.
The launch control will help you
Cant tell which is worse ....the driver or the tune
If it was without a music it well be nicer
Like how the red camaro sound
If you get the launch down it'll be way faster but you're right, drag racing is a lame way to tear your driver up
The reason he disappointed is because you have no TRACTION. Ford and chivy still don’t get it after all these years - they just keep adding more POWER. Smh
Use launch control feature!!!!!!
Thats not too bad... On street tires with a manual. 👍
BREW2L yea. I just had higher hopes
BREW2L for being super chagerd thats realy slow my 18 mustang runs that just saying
5.0_2018 you have to consider DA, as well as lack of traction and heat. Also the fact that it’s manual.
2002 sounds angry.....
1le all day. Older Camaro has a metal clink sound to it.
Drag radials and you will run 11's
Damn thats what my stock 18 mustang does
plenty of stock camaros that will keep up with ya :)
not sure if anyone knew this,,, but its green...

i know the people who own this car ,,,to bad dude had to give it up
Bro u need to drive that thing better u will get it and road course is not what u need to be doing get on the street and run
4th gen sounds better
Drop a supercharged coyote in it and enjoy some 10 second passes. Speaking from experience.
They are called slowmaro
And Mustangs are crowd killers.
