Stock 3rd Gen Performance 0-60 and 1/4 mile
Hi everyone! Browsing around the different posts here I saw a lot of inquiries on what our 3rd gen performance was stock. Being curious myself and being the Avid "Googler" that I am; I happened across the "Super Coupe Club of Iowa" web page which lists performance figures for many US produced cars (F-Body 3rd gen and otherwise). The link is http://www.albeedigital.com/supercou...0-60times.html and following is a list of Camaros and Firebirds from that webpage. Enjoy!

it doesnt help though that usually they dont say which engine the car being tested had??
There are a few that can be easily figured out by year and model...but from 85-87ish on there really is no way to know what they were testing: L69? LB9? LB9-G92? L98? Auto? 5speed?

Right now its pretty much 100% stock, I've put larger wheels/tires on her but otherwise haven't done much performance wise. I just bought a dual air cleaner assembly from an 84 HO, I'm hoping that it helps to liven it up a little. I also need to do a rebuild (carb and engine) before too long, I'm at 192,000 miles now .

Transmission: T-5 World Class
1989 hardtop 305 5 speed , 3.08 LSD . 227'000km's ran a 15.1@93
They have nothing for 1989 there , but they say 15.5 for a 1988 ????no engine size though
----------
1984 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am HO 7.9 16.1
thats incorrect for sure. They had 5 speeds and were closer to low 15's if anything.

Well it says my car runs a 15.3
My car ran a 15.2..
With 400 lbs of luggage, my stereo, full tire psi, cooling fans running at the start of the race, 230degrees and it was 102 degrees outside, so i guess its right.

Re: Stock 3rd Gen Performance 0-60 and 1/4 mile
How did 1990 IrocZ with L98 post times 1 sec faster than 1992 Z28 L98 With the same engine specs (in terms of torque and HP) ? Both had 3.23 gears. Am I missing something?

Re: Stock 3rd Gen Performance 0-60 and 1/4 mile
You guys do realize those times are from magazine sources. They vary, because the cars and drivers varied so much. Typically that list only uses one source, not an average or the fastest source.

Re: Stock 3rd Gen Performance 0-60 and 1/4 mile
Wow... They don't have the 1991 RS.
Well I ran a 16.5 1/4 mile at 82mph. But my R/T was really bad. 0.873

Your RT will only make a difference if you're actually racing. When the light turns green, you can sit there as long as you want. The timer doesn't start until you break the starting beam.
