While I would always choose the SS over the 5.0 you can't argue the facts, if you want to go fast cheap the 5.0 is the ticket.

It does and I wonder what they do in that tune. Is the VVT cam timing finally shining through and being used properly on the tune? If they tune cam timing in there then I can understand why they run 11's without going into the motor as that would be the equivalent of camming a LS3.
