3rd gen has open element w/ K&N filter, Flowmaster 80 series and cat removed.....All emission tubing is gone and the smog pump has been taken off.

The s-10 has a cold air intake, turbonator throttle body spacer and flowmaster true duals.....

What do you guys think on the outcome of this race?????

 

Sorry to say but, I think (and from my experience w/ my L03) the s10 will win but not by alot. It will be closer down low but the s10 will start to pull on the upper end.

 

Alright.....the guy who used to have the truck said that the s-10 felt a lot slower than his '90 Z71 350 throttle body.....so I figured that I could beat the s-10 since I pulled on his Z71 strong.

 

I beat one with similar mods (at least the visible ones - exhaust, giant tach, etc).

The best part is I wasn't in my Stealth - I was in my 01 Grand Marquis. It's the LSE (sport) package with 3.27's, a K&N, and Superchips programmer. My SOTP-meter says it runs mid 15s at around 87-90 mph. I'll actually run it once I ditch the one-wheel-peel for a Detroit Truetrac.

The guys in the S10 didn't think I was serious when I answered their rev with powerbraking of my own. They just laughed -- until the light turned green anyway.

 

whats in the s10 the 4 banger or the 4.3?

 

It's the 4.3L Vortec......CAI, Turbonator throttle body spacer, and it's got flowmaster exhaust

 

Could be close.

My old 96 S-10, 4.3, A4 ran bone stock 15.90@85MPH. It is not uncommon for S-10's to run those times.

 

We ran tonight at the 1/8th mile track......I ran a 10.8 @65mph and he ran a 11.1 @ 63mph. THen we ran again but not against one another and I ran a 10.5 and he ran a 10.1.....
