L98 vs LT1

he got the jump as i spun through 1st and bogged into 2nd, and still chased him down.
the track prep was bad, ill be going back wednesday, with the new 23lb injectors(i still have the 19lbs injectors on ).

celialandry - Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

on that run
r/t= .581
60'= 2.424 (really bad)
1/4= 14.693@ 95

i managed to get it down to a 14.41@94 with a 2.38 60', but i still have a lot of tuning to do. i still need to get the L98 esc, knock, and custom chip. so once all that is done she should be running nicely.
Note: i was in the far lane, and if you lesten you can hear it spining.

As a thirdgen fan, I'm happy to see you win!!!!!!!!!!!!

..and I don't know what your list of mods are, but an LT1 shouldn't have too much trouble beating an L98.

well my mods are kind of mis matched. hookers comps (crapy custom Y) no cat, tb, afpr, pullies, and msd 6al. i have 373s and i must say with stock intake and cam it runns out of breath quickly. but with my new intake and cam, hopfully comeing soon ill make use of them.

it was an auto LT1, sounded like it had a cat-back, and judging from the times he ran thats it.

Nice times. When me and my buddy both just had exhaust (he has a 95 Z28), I'd repeatedly eat him out of the whole, he’d pull close to even at the 1/8, and pull away until the 1/4.

My buddy had an LT1 6 speed, and I could pull about a car length, but he would easily catch up and pass me after that!
