in the 1/4 who would win

 

K.I.T.T....no way G.L. beats that turbo boost, or Super Persuit Mode!

 

KITT sucked, the T/A from smokey and the bandit will kill all

 

I would say Bandit too....

------------------
350 4 bolt main, Speed-O-Motive 383 stroker kit, re-sized rods ground for clearance,TRW Forged pistons,10.7:1 compression,HPC Coated RPM intake, Holley 750 cfm carb,World Products Sportsman II heads,2.02/1.60 valves, Comp Cam 1.6 roller rockers, Comp Xtreme 284 cam,240/246@.050 with .540 lift,Crane pushrods,ATI damper,Proform HEI and MSD6A box,HPC coated 1 5/8 headers, 2.5" exhaust with 40 series mufflers,TH350 with Hughes 3000 stall, Powertrax NoSlip Locker, 4.11 gears.

 

KITT all the way! Turbo Boost and you're right...super persuit mode with all the pop out body panels (the show just sped up the tape...I've never seen a car take 90* corners that fast) would kill the bandit.

 

they probley go threw 5 engines a show, KITT probley had a cross fire 305 LOL!

 

lol

 

My best friend and I are actually building one of these replicas out of his 85 T/A.

I actually know the "performance data" that is known about KITT. I saw it on some Knight Rider site.

0-60 in .02 seconds.
Top speed 300 mph.

It depends...
If the race were on dusty gravel roads and grass, I'd have to go with the General. Remember the more tire spinning the better, try to get the back end to step out as much as possible. If it were a race on paved streets, kitt would smoke the General. The bandit T/A would be the best of both worlds (as long as you have a big rig riding with you as a team )

peace

 

bah!
if you are talkin fake tv/ movie specs
if you look at REAL data, a stock formula 350 could take out the baditt and kitt no prob.... my vote goes to the general!

Your forgetting that KITT has special tires that include retractable spikes, As seen in the episode where they were chasing bandits with the 4X4 on that off road track

I admit Knight Rider is one of the major factors in my owning a 3rd gen pontiac.

KITT would beat The General, at least in their "fictionary" forms. Was the General a 383, 440 or what in real life? I know there were like 50 of them, anyone know what types of engines they actually had? I'd take a Hemi or 440 69 Charger over KITT anyday, but painted in high gloss black instead of orange.

they went through over 300 of them. every time they jumped a car, they sent it to the junkyard because they knew the frame was tweaked. but i want to know what kind of engine they had in those

 

chargers were the upper model and the coronet was the base of that body style so most likely it was a 440 with optional hemi **possibly** a 383 but most likely a 440. im sure a 440 would spank a 305 cross fire t/a

 

boy i dont know, those crossfire motors are pretty mean! LOL

 

they used on average at least 2 chargers per episode and kitt was a v6, thank you tv documentaries

ill have everyone know in here that i got a cross fire 305 and it is pretty impressive little motor so pick on the lo3's or something

 

Dont pick on the L03's
I dont have the LU5's hp/tq specs (probably what you have, unless its an L83) so lets compare the L03 to the L69...

L03 305 TBI; 9.3:1
170 hp@4000, 255 lb./ft@2400

L69 305 H.O. 4V; 9.5:1
190 hp@4800, 240 lb./ft@3200

It isn't that bad of a ****ing engine.

KITT definitely has the General beat. Hey, that thing could haul *** . Besides, the Duke boys would have gotten out of jail a LOT easier if the General would have come when they called it. Besides, if KITT ever ran out of gas, he could be run on any combustible material.

Hmm "evil thought" Line them up like on that 02 tbird comerical then when the duke boys take off ask daisy if she needs a lift. The pass the general up with daisy in the back seat.
Remember kitt can drive himself around

how about the dodge viper from the show viper on scifi. that thing will take a beating thoses others cant even though its only a show. but it would be kool to see a viper turn into sumthing like a superviper or sum ****. but if i had to chose it would be the bandit 400ci engine against the dodge 440ci plus u have to think of the weight of each car , they probably both pull about the same speed. well later

 

The 55 chevy from "two lane blacktop" and "American Graffitti" is my pick.
