mihela816 Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 A lo quad, with a 3 speed and 2.84 final drive would struggle to beat a 4 speed 3.1 with a 3.33 final drive. Tey're good motors, but not THAT good. Also good luck testing it anyway, the lo quad cutlasses are almost nonexistently rare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canada Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 I'll bet they got the 3.61....every other early 90s GM 5 speed did, other than LQ1s, which had 3.67. Who knows what 1-5 was....they changed every year, other than in 92-94. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously with a much worse drivetrain the quad loses any advantage it might have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaron Posted July 15, 2005 Report Share Posted July 15, 2005 I personally think a S* can take a 3800II, and would like to see the race. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian P Posted July 16, 2005 Report Share Posted July 16, 2005 I personally think a S* can take a 3800II, and would like to see the race. Doing a quick check on MSN: '98 Intrigue: 195hp/230 Tq (3.8 II) 0-60: 8.13 1/4: 16.29 @ 87.50 '99 Intrigue: 215hp/230 tq S* 0-60: 6.99 1/4: 15.41 @ 93.00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted July 16, 2005 Report Share Posted July 16, 2005 Thanks, looks as if I was right 8) Also, the Intrigue has a faster 0-60 than the 3.4l DOHC, and arguably a faster 1/4mi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THe_DeTAiL3R Posted July 16, 2005 Report Share Posted July 16, 2005 Thanks, looks as if I was right 8) Also, the Intrigue has a faster 0-60 than the 3.4l DOHC, and arguably a faster 1/4mi.

Don't forget it's maybe a bit heavier than a Lumi too.. It is probably really close, maybe a little heavier, but I wouldn't think by much.
