About 7.0-7.2 in my 86 305 TPI when I bought it stock. Should be around 6.0 or a little when I get it back on the road

Vic, can I ask you how you get 6.5sec 0-60 out of a loaded LO3 with a K&N, cat-back, and a big *** stereo in the back? I was under the impression these engines were closer to the 8.5sec mark.

vic_V8

ok for one thing I used a stop watch, So I don't know how accurate it was.

next Gm rated my car at 7.8 sec zero to 60.

don't forget about my computer chip, the previous owner said it did one hell of a number on the car.

8.5 seconds my ***. I killed a kid at school that had a 91 Z 28 305 tpi.

5.9 seconds, is that good for a GTA? 5.7??

Is your car stick and was the Z auto? Because teh Z was rated at 230hp/300tq and the LO3 at 170hp/250ish tq. No way your mods add up to 60hp. If the kid couldn't drive on the other hand...

7.0 is a maybe for your car but you must have timed something wrong for a 6.5.

BTW 8.5 was just an estimate, I didn't know for sure.

I think about a 5.8 for me, just under 60mph. I beat my friends cobra up until 3rd gear then he pulls (he rarely does because of his gay reaction time and HORRIBLE granny shifting). I'm a dawg at 80mph +.

Yes I know how to spell camaro- so dont ask. I didnt make the link

vic_V8

oh max,

I read some posts, got mad and hopped in my car, with a stop watch. when my left foot left the brake is when the time began. With the engine cold I ran a 7.5 in drive. Next I manually shifted my car at 4,500 and got 7 flat. I then drove for 3 miles and came back and got 6.9 in D and 6.7 manually at 4,900. yes I know that isn't 6.5. But maybe with posi and some slicks.

Dude, TBI's respond well to freeing up airflow, spark curves, advanced timing, and more fuel pressure. My 0-60 stock was around 7.3-7.4 seconds. It also depends on where you live too, barometric pressure, and sea level. Now with my mods, my 0-60 is probably (guessing) 5.8 seconds. It just needs some new heads, the stockers blow, they are built mildly though. A TBI running 10 seconds to 60? That is pathetic, and something is not right at all. Geesh, that should be a 6-banger time. Some one also mentioned to me, that I might have the L05 cam by mistake (GM made tons of mistakes on the assembly line), it certainly does like to make power to about 5500 RPM. Plus, maybe you had different tire profiles on your car when you did that... .

hey guys, im just curious, i got 5.9 0-60 on my GTA, wich is supposively stock with the exceptions below. Do u guys think my time is accurate? since i was using the stop watch on my cell phone? it was pretty detailed. like 00:05.91 wut are u other TPI 350 guys getting?

sorry Breathmint,i dont think that counts.It is very easy to add a half second or more on the "self time method".Good example is when at the strip can you tell if you went a 1/2 second faster or slower then another pass?Ive run some real crap passes that felt like real good ones at the time,till i got the ET slip.Butt-dyno's just are not accuraye enough

Now that you mention that Tornado "contraption"....

Some auto mag did tests on a SUV and it actually lost horsepower, which makes perfect sense - Why would you want to put something in the way of your airflow?

Makes no sense.... *LOL*

Well guys....does just under 2.4 sound good? I think it does.


Cars are all very well and I love them for when its winter and the rain comes down...but really....5 6 7 or 8 secs?

My ZX9R will do a 0-60 in 2.26.....and that is not with special tyres...that is Avon Vipers

I just use the car for getting about now....bikes are for fun.

feel free to try....but I really dont think any of you will get close to the time I just posted.

Dont get me wrong guys.....the Camaro is a nice looking car and I am quite envious of you guys owing one and good luck to all of you. But hell...performance is not really with 4 wheels anymore....just comfort and perhaps......in some very well set up cases...ultimate fast cornering....since a car be definition has four wider points of contact with the road and therefor more grip.

Any comments?

brodyscamaro

Have fun dieing early on your bike.

Personally I give no extra room what-so-ever to motorcycle drivers.

400lb bike vs 4000lb truck

This is funny, this same post "your 0-60 times", was put in the DRAG RACING board, and everyone was like "2.7", "3.3", "4.3 or so, I'm not sure"... haha, here in the "bench racing" board it's a lot closer to 6.5, to go along with the mid 14 second timeslip
That amuses me.

25thmustang

3.8 in a car with stock heads/cam and a Cobra intake... Boost and some actual mods and welcome to the mid 2s...

0-60 is all about traction... 60' is as well and way more impressive! 1.691 on a stock suspension and bolt on motor!

3.5 or there abouts


Chanter, I'll never get a street bike just for the fact that I don't want to be shoveled up and put into garbage bags after a motorcycle wreck.

Chanter

Well my friend, I always assume that car drivers have not seen me until I have overtaken them anyway so don't worry about it.

Not sure what you mean by the 400lb vs 4000lb thing though? lighter is faster is it not?

If you mean hitting a bike in your vehicle will mean the bike comes off worst, I would agree. But are you saying that is what you try to do side swipe every bike that comes past you

Final point people in cars are drivers people on bikes are riders

Chanter

A lot of people feel the same way my friend and that is entirely fine. Yes it is a higher risk passtime than driving around in a car, but since I do both I think I can say safely that the bike is more fun.

By the way I have been riding since I was 17. I am 44 now. I do 12,000 miles a year on my bike and I do 30,000 a year in my car. I have had two accidents on my bike in all the years I have ridden.

Maybe practice makes perfect?

And like I said earlier...I am not anti car guys...I think the Camaro is a damn nice looking vehicle...the late 60's early 70's ones still have a place in my heart. One of the best looking American cars ever.

9ronone

Yeah, I'll take on your time. Put a Muzzy 998 kit in a 9r, undercut the gears, drop a tooth on the front, port and polish the head, run a full rs3 race system , take the carbs out to 43mm, lighten it up a bit, 520 chain conversion, adjustable advancer, smooth the ram air system, run a carbon fiber box, modified cdi with the rev limiter raised to 14k - that'd be my daily driver...

The camaro is my bad weather vehicle.

zz4monte

I am not sure but I am guessing 4.8-5.2 for my car with good traction.

It's the other people on the road that make me not want to get a street bike, with cars pulling out in front of you, switching lanes and pushing you off into a ditch and such. Now a dirt bike, I've been thinking of getting one just to ride around on the hundreds of miles of trails we have around my area.

Chanter

Yeah I know where you're coming from but you get used to it and sort of know when to expect it and take care when you spot a loon.

I live in the UK and we dont have anything that goes for empty roads around here anymore...totally overcrowded roads yip we got em....and speed cameras all over the place to spoil on the fun in the rare places you dont get as many vehicles...no I dont think you have that going on over there. I swear it is nothing but a money making exercise and money they are making buy the bucket load.
----------
That is pretty serious work you have had done there. I have not cracked pen the engine yet. She is quite quick with the minor mods I have made so far. Scorpion race pipe, jetting to suit, +4 degree ignition advancer, kept the 530 chain though, not enough loss to make it a factor in the real world, just my opionion though.

Your machine does sound like it will go some though.

Anyway guys I have hijacked the thread...I apologise.

What color is your 1990 IROC? Its funny reading your info, its almost as if I'm reading my own...LOL!!!! You are the only other 1990 G92 optioned 5-speed guy that I've run across. (actually I did chat with one other fella a couple years back) I think there was around 295 of these particular IROCs produced, and I'm sure a few of them have been destroyed.... so hang onto it brah! Here is some video footage of my 90 IROC racing a 5.0 Mustang GT a couple times.
