Default C5Z or Ls3 Vette.

So this is the story... i currently have a 2008 auto ls3 on headers, intake, full exhaust and tune. I ran a C5z on headers, exhaust, intake, cam, injectors and E85 with a tune. Suprisingly i beat him by 1 car. My questions, is this outcome believable and do LS3 respone better to such mods?

No replacement for displacement... 6.2 vs 5.7

LS3 is a far better engine than a LS1/LS6. Displacement helps alot to.
