yes it is a LS1. i do plan on drag raceing so i do need a good 1/4 mile car. but also cant b horible on gas. it would b a every day car so it needs to b reliable. im looking at the stealths because they r small sporty cars and get ok gas milage. im looking at the trans and camaro for there power a looks

A NA stealth RT has 222 hp in a 3300lb car.

I think simple math will tell you how that will do vs any LS1 powered f-body.

a friend of mine is a big F body guy, and he said that a 99 SS with an auto trans weighs about 3510.

C&D lists a 98 SS at 13.6, not sure of the tranny in that, but a LS1 will destroy anything associated with chrysler in the last 20 years stock, within reason, except for the viper...
