I had a Ttop '78 Z28 in high school 1983-84 & the 1st thing I did was put true duals on it, mild cam, MSD ignition, 8.5mm spark plug wires & ripped off anything smog related & that really woke that 350 up ✌💖☮

Your humor reminds me of regular car reviews, but it’s not a copy, you’re original with your own style, I love how informative you are too

[@charlesdalton985]

As a Vette owning, tire smoking, boomer (who embarrassingly danced to disco in the day) I found your comments……hilarious! The Z is running about like they did back then with a few strategic tweaks. Of course, in the end, there’s no substitute for cubic inches. Thanks for the great racing and hilarity. ~ Chuck 🌮🌮

I was a total disco rat, and in Los Angeles no less. While my stoner buds sat around being Beavises and Buttheads, and chanting "Death to Disco", I was where the hot horny chicks were: The Disco. NOW Charles, I'll bet that at your age, you are still more coordinated and balanced than most people half or a third of your age. I certainly am, much the surprise of many, and I credit it to years and years on the dance floor. Get your groove on. Don't be embarrassed.

[@karltonmiller4697]

My girlfriend in college had a 78 Z28 with 3.42 gears. My mom had a 72 Grand Prix with a 400. We punched off one day and the GP walked away from her Z. Yeah, this Z28 has the perfect mods. A 72 GP is no Corvette killer.

[@danv8717]

That Vette sounds even better when It's being power shifted like that!

[@FLYBOY409]

Yo that Camaro ran so fine it deserves high respects 😎

[@WildDiamond07]

For a second, I thought it'd be a 1967 Corvette L88 drag racing that '78 Camaro. The '67 L88 Corvette is the coolest C2 Corvette ever in my opinion. And I'm certainly not alone. That monster made 560 HP, compared to its severe 430 HP rating. And they're so expensive even C&Z's girlfriend's father's brother's nephew's cousin's former roommate can't buy that thing. (I hope you like that Spaceballs reference, everyone)

[@livewire2759]

I was thinking '67 L88 as well, but I don't think they came with a warranty... or at least not 12 months. Either way, the only true "holy grail" Corvette from the classic era would be the 1970 LS7. Supposedly there was ONE built (tested by motor trend if I remember right) and it was later modified, then destroyed. The Spaceballs reference was great though... and no, sir, I didn't see you playing with your dolls again.

[@WildDiamond07]

(in Dark Helmet's voice) Well, only grown up assholes play with dolls besides little kids. In all seriousness, the 1970 LS7 Corvette sure looks like one hell of a treat!

[@AtZero138]

When I asked my Dad RIP... After he explained his scars (hip to ankles) 64 Vette Destroyed by a drunk who crashed into it while Parked.. crushed my Pop's legs.... Later a 67 ... That he Rolled while driving.. spirited fashion... So where are they now!?... In Heaven, that's, where Corvettes Go when they pass... RIP Pop's... I will always want a pre 72 C3 ... Someday

Well I was a bit shocked with how fast that de smogged Z28 ran . I imagine if the Corvette was given the same treatment it would be in the 12s. All said given that the Z was was driven by a 16 yr. Old is impressive. Way to go dad!

[@thomasconnolly7452]

I expected the Vette to win but didn't expect the Z28 to keep it that close.

[@gearmeister]

I owned a 78 Z28, yeah, complete with the Joe Dirt hair cut!! This was an awesome match up, but hey, big blocks ARE ALL THAT & catch posers on the "big end"... I was a stop light hero, dusting off the most angry wheel spinners! My mods: no cat 🙀 Ram air functional hood scoop True dual exhaust with L82 mufflers Tweaked quadrabog ... It also had the 4-speed & 3.73 gears.. maroon & yes, Z28 stripes! It sounded slightly better than phhhhht!!!!! 😂😂😂

I'm not a serious Corvette fan (love the GTO) but my favorite is the '63 split-window in the rear.

[@robertwest3093]

I did NOT expect that little Corvette to weigh over 3600 pounds. I used to have 2 second generation Camaros so I know how portly they are.

[@LifeofnotBrian]

If you want proper car-geekiness, while lying on the ground, grasping for air from laughing too hard, you've come to the right place! A '65 Corvette L78 with sidepipes is automotive perfection! (the Camaro is ok too...)

Had a 78 Z28 4 speed 3.73 gears. The Catalytic Convertor was gone and true dual exhaust to the Resonators thru the tsil pipes. Black with gold stripes. A K&N air filter, de-smogged and the timing pulled up and a little jetting on the Qjet with 92 Premium ran a 9.30 1/8th mile.

[@libertycosworth8675]

Another fun video with your wonderfully heathen humor. The race was a lot closer than it should have been. The 'vette was loud and it ran a fair amount slower than it should have been running with that engine, gearing and transmission in PSMCDR. Oddly enough the side exhausts for those gen 2 corvettes made a lot of noise, but were pretty bad for power based on a few chassis dyno runs I have seen. The Camaro was well prepared for the class, and it ran what you could expect for a properly tuned 350 within the rules.

No stock 78 Camaro is running 13s.

Good day C & Z, Never late in a L78, 1978 Z28 not good enough for the L78. Man there are a lot of 8’s floating around & you know 8 is a lucky number. The way that driver was power shifting that L78 man I was waiting for tail shaft to do the figure 8 & wriggle it’s arse from the arse end.

Those side pipes are actually pretty restrictive. A nice 2.5 system would wake that L78 up even more. And I cant help but wonder what it would do with a TH400. With those two changes maybe low 13's? Still an awesome Vette and that Camaro was sneaky quick! With 4.10's look out!

[@livewire2759]

Yeah, there's some power to be free'd up there... but since it's a convertible, he can't run any faster than 13.5 or he'll be disqualified... so...

[@robertc4311]

If I am interpreting them correctly, the rules require it can only use the ratios offered from the factory. The four speed cars had 3.73, and the autos had 3.42s....so I think he can run 3.73s at best. But those might make him a little quicker and put him at 13.7s?

[@livewire2759]

The '65 396 is considered the "holy grail"? That's ridiculous. Even though the 396 wasn't even available until March of '65, they built nearly 3 times more of them than fuelie's in '65. Being that '65 was the first year for disc brakes and the last year for the fuelie, I'd say that's closer to being a "holy grail" than the 396 cars. For anyone who's interested, the true "holy grail" Corvette would have to be the 1970 LS7. Most sources say that none were ever built, but supposedly only one was built for testing by magazines like Motor Trend. Second to that would have to be the '69 ZL1, which according to assembly plant statistics, only two were built, though it's possible that a third might exist. Then there are the 5 Grand Sport Corvettes, built in '63... the 20 '67 L88s... the 80 '68 L88s... the 116 '69 L88s... all more rare than the 771 '65 L84 fuelies, and FAR more rare than the 2,157 '65 396s. So, can I get the "top comment" award for the best rant?
