You'll win. You'd whip his @$$ even more with a 5 speed or a tune for the tranny shifting.

totally. all the LT1 manual's were six speeds. they actuall have a "fuel saver" in them that if your not over 35% throttle, it will force you to shift directly into 4th from 1st to "save fuel"(GM economy BS). this was easily bypassed by simply un plugging and capping the wire on the outside of the trannie. just some jee whiz info i picked up when i had mine.
