If we are going to base all of our assumptions on Motor Trend testing the ZL1 seems to come up short.

Interesting that MotorTrend has an actual head-to-head comparison between the two that you somehow fail to mention??
MotorTrend
ZL1: 0-60, 3.8sec; 1/4mile 12.1 @ 117.4mph, 4051lbs
Boss LS: 0-60, 4.0sec; 1/4mile 12.4 @ 113.9mph, 3638lbs
Oh, I see, you were cherry-picking data to try to support such foolishness. Nice try.

Almost like a 707hp car only trapping 122mph...
