2000 z28 a4 vs 1996 mustang gt 5 speed so a buddie of mine is selling his gt 2 get his cobra. well last time we raced he had fullboltons and a 100shot and i won but not by much. so were gonna do it again since his new mods and before it sells.
my car 2000 z28 a4 stalled, with longtubes and 3 inch exaust, stock 273s , and a lid
hia car 1996 mustang gt 5 speed 373s,fullboltons,and 2000 gt heads with the cams he says there called pi heads(he sais he got work done on the heads 2) and pi cams
well hes not using bottle just throttle
what do u guys think the outcome will be from a dig and a roll. last time i raced him i didnt have a lid.

Yea those 273's are killing you, that being said i still think you'll beat him easy. Bolt on 2V cars can barely run low 13's(and only dyno around 260-70 rwhp). Plus his 373's are a mild gear for a modular. Most run atleast 410's. Only thing the pi is it brings the older 2v performance up to the 99-04's. Which is still nothing to brag about.

Just too much gear, gets through the gears too quick and you'll loose top end...373 is all the gear you'll need. It will be plenty aggresive w/ the right stall and some drag radials. What stall is it? I wouldnt worry about the GT you have atleast 50 hp on him and like I said 373 isnt nearly enough gear for a mod motor..baby it outta the hole and just stab and point you'll run right past him. Hes probably not putting down anywhere near what your car would stock.

If he has full bolt-ons (LTs included), that's around 280rwhp... with the heads ported, it could be more. And then 3.73s. So he should be running low 13s, but then again so should you. The stall is gonna help you out.

He's probably a 26-270 RWHP car at about 32-3300 pounds.
I wouldn't put money on either of you, that's for sure.

Well my old Mustang had just about every bolt-on, except it had shorties. The car that dynoed right after me, with near the exact same setup save LTs, put down 280rwhp/312rwtq. And those are untuned numbers. So figure another couple hp for the NPI shortblock, and the possibility that it's tuned. I wouldn't be surprised if he was putting down 270-275rwhp. Might be high, but it's possible.
