Z-28 1/4 Mile Times

[70-SS/RS-L78]

I like all of the First Gen’s, the 70-72 plus the 80-81 Z/28… The 69 Styling is timeless. My favorite being the 70-1.
I have owned a 69 and a few 70’s through the years. The 80-81 Z/28 are real dogs but they look great. My 69
was a Screamer with that little DZ engine but lacked torque. Many years ago I managed mid 13’s at Atco with
my 69, it had a 4, 11 gear and headers The LT1 is a lot stronger in my opinion. GM really did their homework
when they designed The Second Generation Z/28 Camaro. It is a much better riding and handling car then the
1st gen. The 70 Z/28 LT1 engine with some tweaking and a tall gear are extremely quick. The DZ and LT1 both
liked to REV and with them solid lifter’s they Rev Real Fast. That’s why so many of them were Vented. It’s a
shame Rev Limiters were not readably available back then as they are now. I put MSD-6AL’s on all of my cars now.
Better safe then sorry….
