Nice kill, 3rd gens are horribly slow with any stock parts under the hood. Although with their low weight and good overall design all it takes is a simple carb'd sbc or stock ls1 and they start waxing 4th gens. Ive only ran across 1 3rd gen that was quicker than mine so for the most part they are all slow cus mine aint that fast. LS1>TPI.

agree completely with your equation.
kid around here, mostly stock LT1 TA with a 175 shot, DR's and a cutout and flow 40's and he thinks he is gonna be runnin in the 11's with me next season. on a stock 4a and gear and rear.

now i watched a guy in a 96 TA spray a 175 shot off the line, with 4A trans and he broke his damn gear and torqued his frame

i warned the kid, but to no avail, he said he would use any amount of spray needed to catch me...on his stock motor.
