Same driver, stock LT1 A4 C4 vs stock Caddy wins.
It has better gearing, and more power. The 0-60 numbers I find are better than those for a C4 and I know that the LSXs pull on the top end better than a LT1. "Kind of like the LT1 does over the L98"
JMHO.
Good luck, if you want to spank him, some Nitrous, or gears and a stall should do it.
Darn it you've got me looking at the sporty caddies again!

Good New Guys,
I was at Borders Book Stores. Anyway they had a hard cover red colored book about Corvettes. I turned to the C4 section. They said back in 1992 the LT1 with 300hp was a big deal and it helped to seal the fate of the ZR1. The 0-60 times of the 6-speed 1992 LT1 was 4.92seconds. Chevy rated the Caddy Ctsv at under 5 seconds. 4.9 also
So I figure at those numbers the 1996 Corvette auto LT1 will probably do a 0-60 of 5.2 seconds. I think the lighter Corvette of 600lbs. can beat that heavy Caddy...
