im sure this has been asked a billion times but how would this engine do in a 3rd gen
like roughly what 1/4 mile times would it lay down
and how would it do for driving around on the street
because in my opinion it would be the perfect street/stip engine but i would like someone elses opinion

 

Got any details on the car it would be going into?

 

no details because i dont have a 3rd gen yet
at this point i am just speculating
so lets just say i would put that engine to a beefed up 700r4 or maybe a turbo 350 and a maybe 4:10 gears and a LSD with some good street tires what kind of 1/4 mile times would i be looking at

 

I'm not aware of any actual times, but take for example, the ZZ4. I'm using that engine because if you add the Fast Burn heads you've got a Fast Burn 385.

IIRC Chevrolet claims 308 rwhp with the ZZ4. Quarter-mile times are in the low 13s. Add those Fast Burn heads and you are a little higher on the rwhp and a little lower with the quarter mile times.

Add a HOT cam to the foregoing and you are up around 430 horse (the ZZ430).
