Re: 164.35 MPH! I'm Telling Ya, that Silver Z is Flying!!! i'd REALLY be curious what that could do with a ladderbar setup on true 10.5" tires
i bet with a better tranny and a well prepped track you could hit some 8.40s
That is a HELL of a number on 10" tires and only 5 years of engine development.
---on another note, not to undermine your abilities but back in the day there was a shop up in new jersey that had a torque arm equipped stock suspension type 3rd gen that went into the 8.20s. I dont know if you are having any type of suspension problems but you really seem to be able to make the power, maybe just for your own benefit contacting him and pestering a few questions couldn't hurt your situation at all. Just a humble suggestion.
i just wish i could remember the shop name...i can email a friend and ask though for you if you'd like
