LT1 vs IRL

On my way to work this morning and I came next to a Caprice and he was at my back bumper the whole time and we kept going faster and faster...we were at about 55ish and he down shifted and by the time i dropped it into third he had about a car and a half on me we went to probably 120ish with him about a half car ahead still but he shut down and i was starting to reel him in pretty good.

Stopped at the next light and the guy said he had cams and a 100shot. He said he only uses the 100shot from a dig. I think he also had exhaust done from what i saw.

I was pretty happy i guess i wish we could have gone again from a 40 but my work was right in front of us

Reminds me of my old car:

95 Caprice...stock LT1 heads



It was fast in a straight line, but didn't like to go around turns...not with stock front end components with 180k on them. They can be made to be fast, just like any other car...ran mid-low 15s stock if everything was in working order.
