LT1 kill in my L98 I have an 1991 Camaro Z28 with an L98 bored .060 over with 3.73 gears, hedman longtube headers, ported plenum, flowmaster exhaust w/o cats, and SLP cai.
Well anyways I was just driving along looking for races on a Saturday night when I hear someone squeel their tires at the next light. It turns out to be an automatic LT1 z28 with atleast exhaust. So I get up beside him and revv it up, and he just looks at me. So I play around w/ him a lil bit by doing some half throttle fly-bys just to make him think im really slow. So finally when I don't expect it he just guns it from about a 35 mph roll and he got about half a car on me before I hit it. I caught up to him about 55 mph and put about 2 cars on him at 85mph. I am guessing 2 cars I didn't actually measure it
We get to the next light and I start to roll my window down to ask him what he has done, and he flips on his turn signal, turns right and gets his **** all sideways and just takes off. Either way, it was a fun race. I need to get some tires and try some races from a dig against LS1's. Oh by the way I ran 8.896 in the 1/8 mile @ 79.43 mph with a 2.015 60' time.

well with those mods he's got with his third gen puts him right about where good running stock lt1's run for speed in the 1/8 mile i usually run about 78-80 with my car.
nice kill though way to represent l98's i guess the lt1 guy got a little hurt when he got beat by an l98 same way the ls1 guys act when they get beat by a lt1 there's always someone faster i dont know why people have to turn into little bitches when they get beat whether i win or lose i like to bs afterwords of course i make that easier because im not one to run his mouth before a race or anything so it makes it easier to bs afterwords oh well too bad the guy was a douche

For example when I raced a 1996 auto mustang GT w/ exhaust, he thought his car ran better times from the factory. Then I raced him and destroyed him pretty bad, third gens get no respect because of all the junk Carb'd 305's trying to race people.
