1/4 mile time

[hustler8225]

hey i would like to see some 1/4 mile time and speed if u all don't care. If u any idea on what i can do for cheap to help my 1/4 mile time let me know, b/c i may sell my Z if i don't get it runnin as fast as i want. Which would be better a LT4 kit or a 383 stroker Kit? just get back to me with sum ideas, and also will a k&n cold air induction kit help or is it just a waste?

huh? im lost

[skyluslondon]

for cheap? get a mod chip, swap out your rear end for rear end posi...thats not exactly cheap if you get someone else to do it but you can find rear posi for 100 bucks on ebay, then do it yourself. not sure how cheap and quick you're talking but thats just a couple ideas. and if you were asking for 1/4 times from us, mine runs a 13.5

[hustler8225]

See i got enough money to do one of the kits (stroker or conversion) but not enough for both!! so i would like to know some OTHER cheap mods, i swear this isn't difficult to understand!! So here it is i would like to know which would be better for the 1/4 mile a stroker kit or a lt4 kit!!! and also if u guys know anythin else cheap like a few things for a couple hundred a piece that would be helpful. My budget is a little over 3000 and i already got eibach springs and a k&n cold air intake, and soon to be gettin 3.73 gears. so please just help me out, thanks

I'd go with the 383 stroker and just get a nasty cam. Make sure she breathes good though.

what are you running in the 1/4, hustler8225?

[Savage Messiah]

Stroker > lt4 conversion any day.

exactly. "there is no replacement for displacement." the choice is obvious. intake and exhaust = necessity.

you forget about the magic called boost

[Mr. Luos]

And you are forgetting boosting a larger displacement motor.

[Savage Messiah]

ahhh that indeed is irreplaceable, BUT the question is what can replace displacement not what can replace displacement plus boost

[instantkevin]

well smartass :P ... if you would like to be technical:

boost actually creates the effect of having a larger displacment engine, as it allows the engine to burn a larger amount of fuel/air mix. boosting and increasing displacement have a nearly identical effect, so essentially we are talking about the same thing. and so to satisfy you, I say "there is no replacement for a larger density of air/fuel intake charge.

happy? lol.
