Hate to burst your bubble....between a 5.0 & L98 it's a drivers race, this has been beaten to death..but do some research and you'll see 5.0's winning & L98's winning in the 1/4 stock for stock countless times. But anyways ;)
The whole MP3 is funny, but it sounds really fake. Too fake...haha but I'm over here peeing my pants.

The L98 with twin cats and 3.42 gears can run with a stock 5.0, its then the driver. From what I have seen personaly, most of the 82-92 F bodys were pretty slow. Not counting FIREHAWK's and 1LE's most couldnt hang with my 10th Anneversary TA, it was only a 403 with 2.73 gears. Heavy car, leather interior, and power everything. It onlyran mid 14. But everycar has a good day and a bad day, I lost once because I was still spinin at the 1/8 mile. The ol GTO dont hook good ona new surface.</P>
This guy with the IROC has to be a joke, nobody is that stupid, well maybe my brother inlaw. Yeah okay he is that stupid. Maybe it isnt a joke. Either way its good for a laugh. I need some wax, tinted glass, and a bit of neon so I can run 90 mph because dood, that's haulin. Does it matter my car runs 115+ in the 1/4? Nah, not at all. 90 is way fast, no car but a dragster can run over 100, right? </P>
I listened to this at work, everyone was lookin at me funny, I was laughin my arse off... Thought I would share it with you guys.</P>

ok yeah this guy is an idiot and is a little cocky and thinks his car is hot s**t. but i owned a 88 and an 89 firebird formula 350(L98-5.7L 350 Tuned Port Injection), both hooked up a lot.my 88 had a completely rebuilt motor with comp cam, headwork, full exhaust, headers, intake, ported plenum, and other little goodies, lemme tell u that thing flew, it could race and beat an 02 M3 and i guarentee u it woulda outran any cop. the 89 had headers, full exhaust, intake, chip, ported plenum and it was fast too, faster than my stang. it was fast but the stang is higher in quality. i think this guys techniques would never work "radar doesnt work on my car, its shiny" yeah ok, thats bullish. he woulda been issued many tickets by the time he finished running his mouth. im just tryin to stand up for 3rd gen fbodys because i owned one, i know their potential and a lot of them have been aorund for so long they could have a lot of work too them and are very fast. i probably sound like an idiot, but im sorry, im tired as hell and am extremely pissed off right now so none of this came out right

Hey TJ, I too own Fbody's. 3rd Gens were decent especially when modded. This guy obviously has a 305 car. 350's werent ever had in T top Fbody in the third Gen. You can put one in, but it wasnt there when it was new. I like them too, even though they have a chevy in there where a good Pontiac should be. I was out doin a fair piece of street racing back when they were new. I havent found one that was unmodded/stock that could hang with a 5.0. That is then this is now. The stang got a bit slower, and the F's got axed. Things change, but still we like what we like.</P>
My only beef with Mustang owners was simply guys pullin up to me, throwin revs, and talkin trash. I would tell them lets go out and run them, they would say I wasnt worth their time, yet wouldnt go race. Seems to me like now its the Import guys. Not all, just a few of them. I own Fords, and Pontiacs. I prefer to race a Pontiac because they are easier to make run pretty quick, not to mention cheap to buy. </P>
IMagine this, you have a solid 11 sec ride. A kid pulls up in a 95 Cobra and procedes to play a bit. Wont go run because you arent a challenege to him, even though everyone behind you can smell the race gas. He just keeps messing with you, and you dont really want a ticket so you just leave him be. He just bought the Cobra and it is only 2 years old. It is stone stock. Not even a chip in it. Its annoying and dangerous for him to be stupid next to you, besides it draws alot of attention to your car, which is never a good thing. BTW, my 11 sec car is a 79 Formula Firebird. THis is why I dislike kids who do this, then of course he beat me, and my car is slow. Still I cant get a race for money, and everyone messes with me. Sometimes I thought a ticket would be worth it. But killin someone wouldnt.</P>

i understand u completely about ur racing. but the 350 ttop thing is completely wrong, maybe with camaros. but my 89 was a numbers matchin formula 350 with ttops, a lot of the formula 350s came with ttops, as a stock option.

well i too have had my share of 3rdd gen F bodies, an 84 berlinetta, an 87 formula, and the most recent.... our very own morons car...an 86 IROC-Z. from the sound of this guy, im sure his engine is completely stock, note he listed his accesories, and none of them were performance parts. being an 86, he obviously didn't have a 350, as it was not an option, although they did put the L98 in 50 cars for testing they were never produced. the chances of this guy having one are slim. so his 270 hp claim is way off. mine had 195 stock from a 305 tpi, and there were a few combos for engines and rear end gears, but none, not even the last tpi 350 in a camaro, was rated quite that high until 93.somewhere here on my computer i have a spec sheet on every 3rd gen made from 82-92, has all that stuff on it. im sure if that was real, hes in jail by now, or has wrecked his car, or blew his engine revving at a cop.

Does it have a 5 spd or a 700R4? If its a 5 spd, you are the proud owner of a 305 car. What it may have now is altogether different. Dealers may have installed T Tops, but the factory didnt with the 350. I was kinda in the buisness back then. You absolutely sure its not a 305 car? Like had the heads off and all? If it does have the T roof and the 350 its rare, really freakin rare. Even the GTA's with the TPI 350 didnt have that top. They had everything else. But no T top.</P>

the TBI RS camaros had 170 hp. mysterious has a good argument. when i was shopping around for my first camaro, i became frustrated that i couldnt find a 5ps 3rd gen Z28, iroc or not. new to cars at the time of course, i searched and searched the area, but couldn't find one. i gave up,the dealer i ended up buying a V6 auto from said that back in the 80's....everyone wanted auto/ Ttops, and opted for the 305 because it was cheaper, and of course not produced until 87. my father told me they alsoput auto trannys in almost all of them because of emmissions, but im not sure that's true. go to the chevy dealer, and damn near every camaro on the lot was an auto.
tjs57tpi
08-13-2003, 02:43 PM
ok that is not true at all. the reason that no 350s came with 5 speeds were because the T5 trans blew a fat nut and couldnt handle the amounts of torque the L98 could put out so they put in the 700R4 cuz it handled more power. there were 350s in 86 that were tpi, maybe even 85, i forget. and l98s did come with ttops, more commonly in firebirds

tjs....not sure who your responding to, i never made any reference to the 350/ 5 spd combo, i know that's why they didn't do it.i was looking for a 5spd 305. the L98 TPI motor was introduced in the corvette in 1985.

Sup guys, I own an LT1 but I'm not here to troll... TJ is my buddy, and he's right about the third gen. The t-top isn't as rare as you say on the 350. And about his car being a 350, haha, 305 F-bodies just don't move that quick. The Ford 302 maybe, but not the F-Body 305. It's really a pretty big garbage motor. His two WS6s were pretty nuts, but he probably won't brag about them. I'd be willing to bet he could easily hit 12s in his 88... peace guys.</P>
