I believe the LT-1 on the street is faster. Remember NHRA is horsepower to weight. So the LT-1 would have to be a little heavier. Believe it or not, I never see any 1970 Z/28's running with the LT-1 at the drags. The killer engine in my opinion is the 350/255hp. I think NHRA rates them at 274hp (I think) They rate the 02 at 305. The cast iron intake, Q-jet and hydraulic cam doesn't effect the performance of the low hp 350 at the drags. Sam, If I had a 302 with a 3:73 gear and a 350/300 horse with a 4:10 gear both running good with headers,I think the 350 SS camaro may smoke the 02 camaro.

No way, that small of gearing will not make the difference in 50hp...
