67z vs 93z

[Kim_Howie]

I was up at the bar two nights ago and the owner bought a 93 z-28 camaro new. Anyhow after a fair amount of booze he thinks he can out run my stock 67Z-28 on a Quarter mile track. Considering I have races at Eddyville Raceway for years. I explained I would kick is A$$ in the Quarter mile. How fast are the lt-1s?

Tires will be a BIG factor!

Give it a go,I have eaten the odd 90s car with the LT1 at the track with my 68 z all stock with bias ply. Lt 1 cars do not scare me but the LS 1 cars are crazy quike

My stock '97 LT1 convert (auto) runs low 14's.

I used to have a stock 69 Z that raced a couple times at Eville. I always left at 2,000 RPM he wont know that.

In the October 1996 Car & Driver Jerry M ran his restored Tahoe Turquoise '67 Z/28 against a new '97 Z convert and a '97 Z28 SS LT4. 15.30/97 for the '67; 14.7/95 for the convert, 13.6/105 for the LT4.

One things for sure,they would be a lot closer in the quarter than on a road course.

He will eat you up Kim! Especially if he can drive a little. If your 67 has a 4:56 rear and some better tires than it would be closer.

I had a couple friends in from out of town, and they wondered which was quicker in the quarter, the freshly restored bone stock (excl. 235 BFGs on the rear)'69 Z, or the bone stock '95 Z vert 6-spd sitting next to it. We took 'em out to see.

Two passes. '95 Z by at least a couple car lengths both times.
