Default Riging temp sensors on an LT1

Alright this is how temp sensor riging works if you dont know. The sensor has a certain amount of resistance in it at certain temps and sends that to the computer to adjust fuel air adjustments. If you find out what the resistance in that circuit is at a low temp than you can just buy a resistor rated at that resistance and place it in the circuit. This will cause the computer to dump tons of fuel into your engine. I was wondering if anybody knew what the resistance in a LT1 temp sensor is at -30 degrees. I am working on my high school auto shops drag car (1996 Caprice - cop car) which was donated to us. It has and LT1 the only mod we have done so far is to rip the exhaust off past the Cats. We will be stripping out the interior. Any info would help we will be taking this car to Milan drag strip in Michigan for high school Nationals.
-THANKS-

Were only doing quarter milers and we could probably hook it to a switch so we could turn it on and off whenever.
