Re: Thoughts about 4.8 and 5.3
5.3 makes more power on the dyno than the 4.8 - fact
with everything being equal the 5.3 will most likely beat the 4.8 in a race - fact
the point i wanted to make was that i think the race between the 4.8 and 5.3 has alot to do with the driver/tires/rearend setup. if a 5.3 driver has a horrible launch and the 4.8 driver has a good launch, it can be a close race. many people just dont consider the driver possibilitys. along with the driver comes the rearend setup, everyone has em different .
In either case the 5.3 wins out EVERY TIME.
Hyper Ive read your posts, you make childish arguments and then throw a fit when you are faced with logic.
My 2 year old nephew behaves better than you. And he also knows how to admit when he is wrong.
What exactly are you trying to say? That a modded 4.8 can beat a 5.3. NO **** SHERLOCK. There is not one single person on here that has EVER said that a more modified 4.8 can't beat a 5.3.
Everybody knows that, and everybody admits it. Its common sense. You have decided that you are being percicuted for driving a 4.8. Your not. Your being percicuted because you have the wit and common sense of a door ****.
The 4.8 and 5.3 ARE two different trucks, both can be fast, but ALL THINGS BEING EQUAL the 5.3 will win EVERY time.
I challenge you to find ONE SINGLE EXAMPLE of where someone has said that a modified 4.8 can't beat a stock 5.3. OR FIND ONE SINGLE EXAMPLE of where someone has said a 4.8 that is MORE MODIFIED than a 5.3 can't beat the 5.3.
EVERYONE knows it, and NO ONE says otherwise. So what exactly is your problem?

Hyper--
Have I beaten a 5.3? Sure, but then again ive seen a prelude with nothing but intake and exaust beat a Z06 (no **** I have it on film....Z06 killed it launching it and still damn near won).

Did the Z06 have his motor running?
I don't even wanna know the circumstances, because that is pure bullshlt

one example of that would be the z06 vs prelude comment. we all know that the prelude(the 4.8 in the ex.) can have everything done in the book and still loose.
