what is the 1/4 mile and 0-60 times for 1986 Camaro Z28 LG4 auto.

 

I'll just give you some rough figures to go by until someone else can chime in some "real world" numbers.

I'd guess it'd probably take somewhere between eight to nine seconds 0-60 and a mid-16 quarter mile, depening on how good of condition and tune the engine is in.

 

really really slow.

 

 

now now... Dont be mean

 

Yeah, slow, well the reason I got an LG4 was because of the lack of computer control. That way I can work on it easier, dont have to worry about FI setups going weird like on my v6, and I can drop in a 350 REAL easy. So it suits my needs.

 

and G92 L98 would hit 60 in just under 6 seconds..5.8 or so and run low 14's...a non G92 L98 would hit 60 in a little over 6 seconds and run mid 14's..

a G92 LB9 would 60 in about the same time and run a similar 1/4 mile (when you know how to drive noone of that grannyshifting nonsense)

a 5 speed Lg4 would 60 in 7.0-7-5 seconds and 1/4 in low 16's
so an auto would be 2-3 tentsh slower

 

the reason i bought an LG4 was because i wanted a v-8...and didnt know much about thirdgens back then...its a good lil engine though..besides a 350/5spd combo will be droped soon

 

i cant wait to see this.. What kinda 350? Tuned Port?

 

thanks

 

was that sarcasm i detect?

i have no idea yet, just and idea of whta i want...besides..the first major project i delv into will be a 4th gen interior

 

I dont see why people dislike tuned ports so much. Nice torque curve, an ok aftermarket, I can almost start the car just by bumping the starter. (No real aftermarket igntion stuff either.)

Although, the best ones I have heard is people switching from a Roller cam to a Flat tappet "for performance."

 

isn't the LG4 have a carb that is computer controlled?

 

Not on the Canadian cars. They are ECM-free.

 

That's right.

 

nope no sarcasm at all I was jw what kind of 350 thats all, i would love to hav a 350 5 speed myself

 

soon I will have my 350 5 speed. (crosses fingers)

And this winter hopefully it will be a Stealth Rammed 350 5 speed :rockon:

 

My car with the cam and exhaust went 16.45 @ 82mph
My friends LG4 with just exhaust and shiftkit went 16.55 @ 83mph

My drivetrain is mismatched so I have a good topend but I am in 1st gear til 50mph (about 6 seconds).

Yeah 350 5 speed is nice

 

lol what about a 350 six speed? Like that hawks thirdgen...

 

this one?

is a T56 with Blown Ls1. that thing will fly!!

amazing! :hail:

 

Yep that's the one. *drools*

 

Well, heres my numbers....

I took my bone stock LG4 with a 700R4 down to the local 1/8th mile track when I first got it. It had crumbliung plug wires, 4 differant types of plugs, Vac. Adv. not hooked up, rusted off exhaust, 700R4 not shifting right "slipping" before it would shift, and I ran 10.37...which translates to a upposed 16.1 pass......Since then I took out all the AC and Smog, long tube headers dumping into dual FlowTech Purple Hornies, Edelbrock Performer intake, Summit Racing cam, and Im putting the recently acquired Holley 4160 on right now. Tranny should be coming up in a few weeks. My 60ft times were insane though when I ran it first, like 2.5's....now they are 2.3's and even one 2.29 Im sure once I get my new carb on and a good tranny, Ill be deep into the 9's (1/8th) with this car, its got the potential and the motor is really tight, just Ive had bad luck with trannys and carbs ever since I bought my first car The RS is the only one to not give me a trouble tranny....knock on wood.

 

just curious what where the 60' times you ran with those cars?

 

hey TBI92Camaro let us know what kinda times your lg4 car runs when its up and going!

 

rx7speed:
My trans am's 60 ft was 2.41 and the 86 Iroc had I think like a 2.3 but i'm not sure on the Iroc. Never put in a cam without doing rear gears too. Theres no low end at all because the cam range is high and I have really low gears.

No to steal the topic here, but for you LG4 guys, any of these things come stock with a T5?

 

did Lg4s had a t5 for option u mean?? yes they did

 

My LG4 with exhaust ran 16.1 @84

 

my 83 LG4 came with a T-5, now she is behind my immobile 350, I hope I get it back before it snows.

 

according to the G tec, my 86 LG4 (stock except folwmaster 80 series and edlebrock open element) ran 0 - 60 in 7.7 and 16.3 1/4

 

That sounds about right even if you did use a G-tech. How many miles are on your car Phil?

~Matt

 

its running at 131 000, but its had an easy life..

its an SC with very few options, so its up at the lighter end of the thirdgen scale, too..

someone had the forethought to change to 235 / 60 / 15's, and its had the ignition advanced 4* to take advantage of our 95 RON petrol (we get 95 or 98 - workes out to about 91 and 93 in US (MON) ratings)

 

16.45 @ 82mph

kinda messed up
I was pulling a better 60 foot and higher mph but around the same et

 

rx7speed:
Yea once I hit like 4000rpms in 1st it pulls hard the rest of the run, but the first 6 seconds or so in 1st gear are so slow. I'm guessing just changing the rear gears to like 3.42 or 3.73 would drop me to at least high 15s.

~Matt

 

ummm, my LG4 goes through 1st in about 3 seconds...

 

Yea thats because you have a matched drivetrain. My low 2.73 gears keep me out of my cam range for a while. I can't do brake stands or burnouts because I just don't make any power below about 3000rpms and my stock stall is around 1800rpms.

ahh, gotcha!
