LT1 vs 5.0
Just got back from mexico where I ran and beat a mustang 5.0. This is the early 90s model, it had 3.73 rear gears, driver mod, cobra intake manifold, throttle body, cold air intake, aftermarket exhaust, bigger injectors, bigger radiator and I'm sure a few things I'm forgetting. The roll was 30 and he jumped about half a car bc I was searching for traction. Caught traction and reeled him relatively easily. Then marched on and fully past him by ~105. My car is just "stock" with MSD optispark and wires, bbk shorties, SLP LM1, SLP CAI, 2500 stall and a few other odds and ends. Kinda felt like it was a good kill for mine being relatively stock with just bolt ons done.

If a dig is convenient, I would give it a go. Roll racing many times just happens. Not every day someone on the road says let's go to a spot and go from a dig. Stopping for a dig race on 287 would be interesting

I don't street race anymore, either. 25 years ago it was a different story.
