Old Daily Driver vs. New Daily Driver
Ok guys, I know this sounds lame, but my Trans Am vs. my newest acquisition, the Bliznazer (Blazer, just in ghetto terms). The Blazer has the 4.3L engine, auto, 106,000 miles and the curb weight is 4100lbs. The Trans Am is around 3400 i think. I believe my car has at least 200hp now and like 280 torque. The 4.3 in 1995 put out 190hp and 250 ft. lbs. So just by these number I would think that with more power and less weight it would be all Trans Am, but I heard not to underestimate the 4.3L Chevy. It's called the "350 with two less cylinders." Well the Trans Am has two more cylinders, so everything looks like it will be a win for the T/A. Mods are in the sig. What do the blazers run stock, and how fast can these 4.3s get? I heard there are a lot of cheap mods you can do, besides the intake, exhaust stuff. Thanks.

No one knows any stock times? I know it is probably rare to see one at the track or see the times online. The Blazer feels pretty quick, and it has posi, with I believe 3.73s. It's got some pickup.
