SXNH8 Twin Turbo Ford F-150 vs. Heads Cam Chevy Camaro LT1 – Street Hits
May 31st, 2024We are jumping back out there on the interstate (in Mexico) this evening for more roll racing hijinks. Come join the action as two modified machines lock horns in a form of racing that begins where the speed limit ends.
Known as SXNH8 (Section Hate), the all-wheel drive Ford F-150 is lowered and outfitted with drag slicks on all four corners. In stock trim, the 5.0-liter V8 under the hood is not going to blow anybody’s skirt up. However, if you bolt on a twin turbo kit with an air-to-air intercooler and all the accoutrement, you’ve got a neck-snapping street contraption. SXNH8 is still in the break-in period so, the boost is turned down to wastegate pressure (approximately 11 psi). Should make for a close race.
Thundering away in the other lane is the Chevrolet Camaro LT1. The rear-wheel drive Camaro comes with a 455hp (455 lb.-ft. of torque) 6.2-liter V8 engine. That wasn’t enough for this bad bowtie owner, so he swapped the stock cylinder heads and camshaft for high-performance aftermarket variants. This Chevy has also been tuned to burn E85 fuel and has undergone some degree of weight reduction. It sounds amazing.
Let’s get it on!
