Default cam and spray LT1 vs Cam LS1?

what do you guys think, there is a kid with a LT1 and somewhere around a 100 shot talking mad **** on my car. he has a really big cam, stock heads, stock intake, 4.11s, bolt-ons, and 17in drag radials. he ran a 8.5 on motor. he outran a friend of mine in a bolt-on Ls1 with a 150 shot but my friend spun like crazy. my mods are below. tell me what you think should i do it? my car hooks pretty good on the street. his best 60ft on motor was a 1.9

Close. I dunno, it depends on the cam he has and what shot he has, those make a pretty big difference. If he doesn't have DR's I say you take him b/c of holeshot and he may pass you on the big end w/nitrous.

If he can get off the line at all he'll easily beat you. From a roll he will destroy you for sure

cammed w/o worked heads, he'd need a hell of a tune to be competitive with you. If he actually has a decent amount of spray it could be close. What's your set up?

So, on motor alone, he is about as fast as a stock LS1.

With your setup, you should be hitting mid 7's.

Somehow, I don't think a 100shot, let alone a 75, is going to be enough to beat you.

Run him.

If he is that overcammed you will definitly take him. I doubt he is willing to spin his stock motor to 7000+ RPMs to make optimum power.
Sounds like he is a bitch and all talk though.

Tell him Thanksgiving was last month, if he wants a roll he will have to wait.
