So what do you guys think, 94 Camaro (my dream car) I told him this and he said there is no way that it would beat his car, and I'm pretty close to getting my dream car, his GTP has 240HP stock and 280ft/lbs stock, he has some mods, heres a link to his Car Domain page with his mods http://www.cardomain.com/id/copgtp, I think a stock LT1 would take him but I'm not sure, what do you guys think?

With traction, he should take a bone stock LT1.

That GTP will take a stock LT1

The LT1 That Could

My near stock beat a GTP by a few cars, and we both had traction problems. Bone stock LT1 may be a different story, but I only had 3.42s, K&N FIPK, and a cutout at that time.

They got GTPs running prety quick, esp Intense, those fuggers know whats up. They have a car in the 10s at 137, its a turbo though. Still ton in the 11s-12s but they have a lot more work done, still I would be surpirsed if that car in question was a 13 sec car.

If he is modded right, he might be able to take out a bone stock LT1. I know a guy over on Fuelsut runnning a GTP with boltons and a 75 shot running 12.3s.

I agree, he has some major work done on that gtp. Take a look at his car domain info.

That's major work on his car. Look at the motor work alone. I'd say he's probably running mid/high 12s. Of course he's going to take a stock lt1. All you need is 150 hp shot of nitrous and you can take him, lol. Make sure you get it tuned also for the juice. Depending on gears, you could probably run low/mid 12s with that much juice on good tires of course. Possibly lower if you have 3.73 or 4.10 gears.

Ok so most of you say would lose but what if I had cat-back exhaust and a cold air intake and maybe some headers or throttle body, then would I take him, the man is a real dick, thinks he has the absolute best car in the world that no one will ever beat him, and I want to prove him wrong

Well those mods would help you out....but with all that money I would just buy a nitrous kit and have no doubt about beating him silly. Just jet it for 150 and have all the safety equipment, window switch etc.

I had looke at his mods and he has almost everything a young kid here has. This kid was running 8.8x's at our 1/8th track. A stock LT1 will run 9.2's. He had bet a guy in a 94 TA $50 bucks. The guy sprayed a 100 dry shot (hidden) and ran a 8.5....dusted his ***!!!. Go to cold fusion and pick up a wet system for under 500 and but his *** with a 150 shot. Make sure you also run a window switch 3k & 5800 pills) for safety. If he tries the "OH You juiced on me (Waaa-waaa) tell him to run watchya brung. Oh, and make sure you bet him some $$ so you can pay off your N2O kit.

GH1086

so what most of you are saying is to run a 100 or 150 shot of nitrous and i will take him, but now my question is, is that safe to run or will that ruin trans, engine or something, because i use to have a grand prix i asked people if i could run nitrous and they said absolutely not, unless i had trans work, but i guess the 4l60e is stronger than the stock GP trans

As said above and in many other threads, but since you're new, LT1's love the juice. the Tranny will hold up for a while, depending on how beat it is now. That is if it's an A4, if it's an M6, well....it'll hold a whole lot. If I were you, yank out the spare tire and junk, hide the bottle in there, then do your best to hide the lines and noids. If it's a dry shot, it's easy, wet kit, pretty hard to do, but doable. you don't want to run any dry shot bigger than 100, but the 150 wet will be fine for one run, then you can do more mods afterwards, i.e. MSD box/coil, better fuel pump, full exh, CAI, LT4 knock module, etc. Since it seems you are new to this stuff, if you do get the N2O kit, DO NOT allow yourself get addicted to the squeeze. I do, on every car I put it on cause it's sSOOO much fun.

I ran a 13.9 with a filer and a pulley when I first got my GTP, I then did catback and downpipe and rockers, my times dropped to a 13.55..... yes they can be fast enough to beat a stock lt1. I maybe had 1500 bucks in the car to run 13.55 without nitrous of course.....

GH1086

thanks for your advice guys, and i am new to the lt1 but i think i know a decent amount about cars but i'm young only 18 so dont really have the experience

Those Supercharged Grandprixs Can Be Mean If Modded Right.

it's all about money for sure. You can make everything and anything faster with money, period.

lt1 with a cai, mas, free bie mods and a tuner can run low 13s all day, not mid 13s.

Hell, it could run a low/mid 13s with just a set of ET or nitto tires; possibly 12s with all the above.

i had a 99 gtp that all i did to it was mufflers and it ran a 14.24... my camaro stock ran a 14.4

maybe you had a slow camaro and a fast gtp.

my stock formula ran a 13.65 with just a flowmaster muffler on street tires.

Slow time for a stock LT1. What was your 60', and at what mph?
