That's when it hit me, this kid's dad is an idiot, and the days of a jacked up Camaro ruling the road are over, factory cars and simple tunes are putting out numbers we used to dream of. What say you ?
Mr. Spears and I were just having this very conversation. It's amazing the numbers achievable when I think of all the money I tossed into a motor to gain a mere fraction when compared to todays LS or Coyote setups. Retro is ok I guess.. but horsepower gains with a simple tuning change is just to cool!

Just like the flathead, the king is dead... long live the king.
