anyone got a guess, its got 130k but runs awesome, chirps second sometimes, and the trans shifts good.

 

15's

 

lows, mids , or high?

 

I don't know man I used to own a 1991 Firebird Formula with the LO3 auto and couldn't touch the 15's. I'd say low 16's but it might have been my car.

 

well is it TBI or TPI?? if its TBI i would say mid 16's to mid 15's ... my stock 305 TBI went 15.5 at 92 MPH with a slipping tranny ... but the TPI's should go a few tenths faster ...

 

I got a 305 in my 84 Maro with carburator...I go mid 15's to high 15's.

Kelly if your car is an auto I'm gonna have to raise the on that one but if its a stick than its a different story. My 305 TPI auto can barely touch 15.5 with the LB9 stock. He's not gonna touch a mid 15 if its an auto. I'd expect 16's man.

 

nope its as auto as they come and if i had a scanner i would scan my timeslips from atco raceway last year when it happened ... all i had done to that car then was the rear and the flowmaster exhaust ... i was suprised myself when it turned out 15.8 COMPLETELY stock ... but thats what it did ... and then after the exhaust and gears it went 15.5's all day ... that same day there was an older guy there in his sons 305 tbi and he couldnt get lower then 15.9's ... so idk, guess i just got lucky

 

Thats more believable. You said 15.5 stock before. 15.8 still seems fast but it can be done, your lucky you have a TBI that runs that fast. I sure wish mine did but the best I could pull was a 16.4 in my LO3 Bird.

 

hey its for sale if you know anyone that wants it haha

 

Where are u in PA? If its eastern than maybee I know someone. But this isn't a classified forum so send me an email. Its my camaro68vette63@hotmail.com

 

Id assume eastern as she went to Atco... also Atco is a very fast track one of the fastest on the east coast (if not THE fastest), so any times from there I believe!

 

yeah atco's a pretty quick track ... a lot of people i know get a few tenths faster times there compared to Maple Grove and Englishtown

I've only been out to englishtown in my car I never even thought of heading out west. I didn't know that there was a track faster than the other. I know elevations matter though, maybee that has something to do with it .Englishtown in pretty close to sea level.

 

Believe it or not Atcos top end is slightly downhill... But dont get me wrong Englishtown is only a tenth or two off. I am stuck up at LVD running 4 tenths off you guys but oh well!!! Ill try Atco in the cool weather!

 

I went 16.21 bone stock today with an lg4. That was an average of 8 runs, on the street, not a track. I'm sporting 14 years old spark plugs and whatnot. Only mod is the 82-84 trans am ram air/ cowl induction setup.evrything else is stock. Well except for a new distributor cap ;-)

I'm going to the track in june, with better traction, high 15's perhaps?

Wow, say Kelly, do you look that good going 15's too?

 

::::::::BLUSHING:::::::

 

i put edelbrock TES headers on my car with a cutout and i just ran a best of 14.9@92 mph..

aside from that its a bone stock L69

 

The best I could get out of my LO3 is 16.08 so far....Thats with 94k miles, probably 13 year old plugs/wires etc...3.42 gears 6* timing and open element....I reprogrammed my chip since then but haven't gotten to the track yet! My car falls on its face after the 1000ft!

 

mine stock turned a 16.7 but just take a look in the sign these motors react very good to bolt ons:hail:

 

5.0s are known for how well they react to bolt ons !
