I started working with a new team at work and found that they are all car guys. One guy wants to race his 95' Z-28 next time the roads are dry . Everyone says that I will win, but I am not seeing it.

His mods:
vortech w/ 7# boost
MSD ignition
edelbrock TB
aftermarket intake (dont know what kind)
unknown exhaust
auto trans w/shift kit
135,000 miles on the car

My mods:
95mm C&L MAF w/9" K&N
Borla Stinger

What do you guy's think? :shrug:

95'....I think the stock HP was 275 at the crank - 15% say to the wheels = 233 HP
Plus 80-90 HP for the Vortech = roughly 323 hp to the wheels.

He has a lot of miles! I think you'll take easy!

Good Luck and be safe!:beer:

DO you have a chance? Do bears sh!t in the woods? Just hope you're not so far ahead of him that he can't read the "Cobra" on your back bumper.....maybe you should get some chrome bumper inserts so it'll be easier to read from afar.

Wow, Thanks guys.

I guess I will let you know the results within the next few days. :thumbsup:
