CRF's Only Forums

Gotta sell one of my other toys. My son drove it today for the first time and is almost as broken up about having to get rid of it as I am. If it has to go I'd like it to go to a good home. Check it out.

That sux having to sell a nice car like that zippy 2.8 liter thing.

ZIPPY? Did you just say Zippy? Zippy my .......well anyway. That my young friend is as a Z28 spelled kick a$$ LS1 V8. Zippy; he just said Zippy
O.D.

Zippy???

Is that even a word???

And what's with the 2.8 liter smack??? Is that some sort of Euro codeword???

Z28=Zippy 2.8 liter. A anti chevy joke although I ALMOST wouldn't mind owning that thing.

The LS1 is 5.7 (348 cu in) about 310 claimed hp from the factory @ 5200 rpm and 340 ft/lbs of torque @ 4000 rpm. 0-60 mph in 5.5 sec. 13.8 1/4 mile @ 105mph The one for sale I would venture to guess tops these figures. (5.7 L=348ci : 2.8L= 171ci) Zippy, I got your zippy covered..... Zippy

No chevy will ever beet the 1.9 0-60 set by a FORD Boss mustang. It was a V-8 10 liter and faster than hell.

Apples and oranges. You are right. That Mustang was brutally fast. For it time, probably the FASTEST. As I remember them, most muscle cars of that era were faster than those of today. But I got power windows and a CD player. Your Mustang had window cranks. (ask your Dad what a window crank is and ask him about the quality of that Pioneer 8 track while your at it

Alltime 0-60 record is 3.07 seconds.

....and 7 Liter V8. But that goes along with that 6 inch over estimation thing. This will help with your figures woodsman. http://www.sciencemadesimple.net/volume.php
Don't get me wrong, I agree with your statement about the Mustang but the figures ..... well that 6" thing again

Obviously a misprint on a forum. Check the records, then check reality...
