91 RS vs 87 LT
A guy at my school just got his dads old 87 LT vert. It's stock, has a v8, that's all I know, that's all he knows, he said he didnt know anything about it but said he'd like to take me up on a race.
I have the ultimate TBI mods done. Can I take this guy?

My friend has a 87 LT but its not a Vert.
The 305 TBI will take it. The L03 is not as bad as people think, as compared to the LG4. You'll win.

Thats what I mean. I have a friend over here with a LG4 with a cam, headers, exhaust and a 600cfm carb that can beat some L03 cars. I still got him in my hooked up L03 though and he can't stay with my LB9. The 305 motors all together are really underestimated given time and love they will run hard and good. Just gotta throw the right mods at it.
The L03 is still very much the black sheep of the third gen motors though in my eyes.
