No offense to any of the other Dakota's but beating an LS-1 F-body is a
dream without major mods. You'll need to spend a small fortune to be able
to race a stock f-body and win. NOS might be enough to handle a stock ls-1
but I doubt it. Realistically you need to rebuild the top of your motor
(heads,springs,lifters,cam,intake) or swap for a crate motor, or add a SC,
or turbo.

If you want to go mustang hunting thats another story.. Just install a
catback, a ported TB, and a k&n clone..
