I HAVE A STOCK RAM 1997 1500 WITH A 5.9LITER 360.

COULD I OUT-RUN A 1998 GMC 5.7LITER Z71.

IT IS ALSO STOCK.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

THANKS

 

nope, he will win.

 

TURN off caps

 

In the 1/4 mile he'll whoop on u.
On a country mile u got a chance
dodge don't shut down like the chevys do .
He'll hit his 94mph and the motor will bog out.
The dodge on the other hand will keep climbing.

 

what do they run in the 1/4?

i thought they run like 16.0-4's

 

Not sure ,but I've owned both and
in my opinion if both trucks had the same gear and
weight the chevy would be the winner in the 1/4.
There pretty snappy.

 

I think you probably could...
Ive beaten one with my 318.

The 360 got more power in either 97, or 98

 

??

 

ive beat my buddies 350 gmc with my 318 i dont know what year it is but its a 2wd 2500 but i beat him and i smoke my buddies f150 351 flareside all day and that is just fun!!

 

My 97 with the 360 engine and 3.90 gears could not take a buddy's '98 GM 5.7L with 3.73's. This is back in 1999 when both trucks were fairly new. Mopar98 is right though about top end speed. I had much more top end, but the quarter wasn't even close.
