Default me vs me vs me

decided to line up my cars before the snow flies. we tried a couple of dig runs but it's just to cold to hook up (around 25F) so we did 40 mph rolls. its an 02 ws6 with a couple bolt ons vs a 94 trans am lt1 that supposedly has le1 heads and a small cam. no headers though. stock 3:42's.


2nd is my 75 455 ho with ported 1970 455ho heads, full roller, dave bischop 400/455 forged bottom end, and of course it's a manual, vs the 94 trans am.


I started over a 1\2 length behind the lt1 and instantly jumped a length because I was in 1st at 40 and the lt1 was in 2nd. I basically held that lead the entire way until we shut down at whatever god awful speed I took that shaking death trap too.

oh yeah 455 has 3:23's.

supposedly has le1 heads and a baby cam. no headers though because the last guy "didn't want to lose low end torque" wtf. has ORY, catback and cai. must be tuned as well because it actually runs really nice.

you can just hear the cam. runs around 106 in the 1\4.

I like the lt1 cars but you just get a better bang for your with ls1 cars. Car sounds good though. Isn't the trans am "GT" kinda rare?

yeah they just came about a month ago and put patches over all the cracks--- it was smoother before!

but it's generally pretty vacant so I can go test my cars out where I marked a 1\4 mile!

Stop driving that 75 that fast! lol, those old cars show you real fast that they were not made for high speed stability.
