this doesn't relate to LT1 technical-based stuff, does it? plus, we have no idea on anything about the other car. what does it run? what kinda power does it put out? gutted interior? good tires? suspension work?

If you dont know what the other car has I would not race for money. Maybe for fun not for money.

Did it start out as a stock 350 in 88? If so, it probably had like 160 HP, maybe 200 now with the mods. Tell him you'll race for titles and see if he calls you on it. Worst thing that could happen is you lose a 93, then you have a good excuse to move up to an LS based F-body.
