Catback Mach 1 5spd VS LS1 Z28
This happened last night in mexico guys theres a kid around school who has a white mach 1 with atleast a catback idk about any other mods at any rate I've been wanting to find him for a long time. Last night I caught him at a stop light but there were cars in front of us after the light turned green we both managed to get ahead of traffic doing about 45 (crappy spot for my auto and 3.42's).
I wasnt really expecting him to race because I sat next to him for a good 5-10sec and nothing happened then all of a sudden I hear him grab second and take off. By the time I realized what happened he already had a car on me and was still gaining. I jump on the throttle and when my car downshifted into 2nd I immediately stopped his pull and started pulling back he grabbed third and I jumped another 1/4 car and was still pulling by the time we let off I had a fender on him at about 90. Didnt get to run a second time because of traffic. He sounded like just a catback car, I have lt headers, catback, udp, tune, 3.42's and a lid. I'd like to find him again and have a go from a decent speed for my gears and start off evenly not with him one car ahead lol. Btw i had a 150lb passenger in my car and he had no one... not that that would make a whole lot of difference thoLast edited by redbird555; 03-31-2011 at 06:26 AM.

Thanks guys I wish he would have stayed in it longer so I could have had better confirmation. Even tho i suppose it doesnt matter because i did pull all that distance back while we were both hammers down.

Nice kill, man. I've been wanting to tangle with a Mach 1 in my car too.

They can be a handful to deal with. 5-speed ones with gears, exhaust, tires can put a damper on your ego in a hurry if the person can drive (not to exclude ladies in this post ).
They run well because I think they use the intake cam out of the DOHC 5.4 and its own special exhaust cam. They do use the same block and heads as the Terminator along with twin 57mm TB.
