The H22 Civic should pull you if he's got his **** together (traction, clutch, driving skill).

He should be high 12's to 13.0, whereas I would think you'd be in the mid to upper 13s with your car and mods. I ran 84mph and change thru the 1/8 in my all-motor Civic, and ended up with 12.80's @ 107mph..

How accurate is this link to guage engine swap performance?
http://www.darksol.com/swaps.asp
My car should run mid to low 13's with mods not high 13's.
2350 lbs/195 hp = 12.05 lb per hp
3500 lbs/290(minimum)hp = 12.06 lb per hp
Not enough difference for him to "take me" in my opinion especially since he has escentially 4.5 ft/lbs of torque per pound less than I do. I know this will be close, I just want some opinions on who should come out the winner. Would I be better off racing from stop, roll, or hwy?

LT1 all the way.............

Yes I play with 4 pooper Hondas and V8 F-Bodys.

20 hp retune on the LT1 via ECU flash is nothing.

remember, it's not just the peak number, but how wide the powerband is.

Because this is how to get info on racing "how to" and not "who would wind my turtle or horse?" forum.
