I concur..
By Don - 10/30/2003 11:07:23 AM; IP 65.214.107.3
McQ's got it right, I run a total stock 66GTA Fl'n convert - 335hp, 3:50 gear that weighs 3975lb with driver. Best time thus far are 96 mph @ 14.78. - and this is with rejetted carb, bumped up timing running aviation fuel and 2.25 exhaust pipes (still using "S" intake and GT exhaust manifolds.
This puts me in a good mix for the (stock) base hp muscle intermediates (especially the automatics)
I have found it really comes down to the better prepared car and driver to determine the faster time slip at the end of 1320 with these base GTO's, SS396, 383 etc..
This thread, so far...
