If you had some 4.10s and sticky tires you could probly hang or even take him from a dig as long as you don't suck at driving. But he's gonna toast you from a roll.

For one, I dont see you putting down 260rwhp, unless for some reason the PI swap gives you more power than a stock pi-2v. Either way it goes I'm gonna say he will beat you from a roll and dig. He has a low 13 second car and your car is at best a mid 13. Good luck and let us know what happens.

Normally when you do a pi swap. On a non pi motor. It bumps the compression up. Its been proven that a car with a pi swap, will make slightly more power then a pi motor with the same bolt ons.


If u had gears, and tires it would a better race. From a dig if the ls1's spins you might jump out, but once he hooks he gonna come around u hard.

From a roll I'd expect similar results

Yeah, they're like 325bhp or something right? Might be a better race for a cobra...

what gearset in the LS1? I was beating LS1 cars with 256 WHP, nittos and 3.73s, but it was all in the launch.

Shoulda done some stage 2 cams
