If you have to add the 3.55's, then you're going to have to come up with some option on the camaro that will add an aggressively geared transmission to have a more apples to apples comparison. good luck with that one. |

So Ford makes a car called a Mustang?
That's cool. |

I think you're mistaken, however this video is for the Corvette LS3 Grand Sport. Should be the same basic design though...if they can shove the dry sump in the Vette, it will fit in the Camaro.

Why are we so interested in making the two cars price out identically? They are different cars. Is the argument that the Mustang is too expensive to be compared to the Camaro? I'm not sure I'm following...

Only the ls3 in the grand sport has the dry sump system. It is off of the z06. The ls3 in the grand sport is also hand built. The ls3 in the regular c6 and camaro are machine built and wet sump design 8.4 qts

I think universally, all professional reviewers rate the 2011 Mustang as the preferred choice. So they are all in cahoots are they? I wish Camaro people were just a bit more open-minded and a bit more objective. Love your Camaros for what they are, but don't overlook the fact that improvements can and should be made. Constructive criticism and baseline comparisons are important for achieving continuous improvement. |

This is really getting silly now. However I am still going to play along. I'm not sure if you guy's realize that the shaker 500 has subs as well so there is no need to add the shaker 1000 to this sillyness.
