I have not Dyno'd this car mainly cause it was never a big issue with how much power i do know that i out ran a stock LT1 Camaro in it pretty bad. No offense to my fellow LT1 members. So that should tell you something. But as far as Dyno Sorry

Ya its a tough choice. I mean i still have my 67 RS but idk i want to get like a Red or Hugger Orange SS or a black, blue, red, orange WS6 with a manual Transmission. Something about them is keeping me interested.

With only stiff springs and stock SS sway bars I have extremely little body roll. As soon as I get some money new spindles and c5 brakes will go on, the new spindles correct a lot of geometry.
Needs a panhard though, the rear doesn't stay centered as well as I would like.
I have a pic of me and a modified suspension 280z coming around a decent little corner at over 50mph and my car is as flat as his. I'll post it up when I get back to Dallas and my own computer. I've surprised several imports and 4th gens in some turns. These cars can handle very decent with very little if you do some research.

ya i cant sell that either one of my Camaro's i love that car way to much. Like tonight i stomped a brand new mustang from right off the line and it had just finished raining. I know what your thinking i must not be pushing much power. WRONG i just so happened to put new tires on it today.
Any my V6 Camaro can spin all day from a stop.

i call bs on 425 hp and hooking in the rain, my car with 350 hp doesnt hook even when its dry, and i sure as **** wouldn't be racing anyone in the rain, no traction at all.
also, according to your sig, you are 20? so in the last 4 years you have had 4 chevelles, a 67 RS, a 99 SS, and a gsxr? something just isnt quite sitting right with me on that, unless you have a lot of mommy/daddy bankroll.

I bought a 1972 Chevelle from a guy that was loosing everything to his wife and needed the 2 grand i paid for it a week after my 15th Bday. He thought the motor was blown and it wasnt the timing was off. Fixed it up very little and traded with cash for a 1971 Chevelle Malibu/SS. After that i sold it to a relative. Got my 67 Camaro RS that was complete with very little to be done. I bought and sold here and there with crappy cars making about $500 at a time on a loan i took out made enough money to buy another one and sell. Then for a gift from my parents because i was having a little girl decided we needed another car and yeah they did help me out with part of it but i didnt pay much for it and neither did they i got a 1998 Z28 Camaro. I then parked my 67 Camaro because it gets horrible gas mileage and bought the 2007 GSXR 1000 for my travel to work which is quite a drive. Then i had a friend get in a wreck so thats why i am trying to sell it. After i paid most everything off i took out a loan for a 1999 SS Camaro. Did a bunch of work to it. Decided to sell my 1998 Z28 Camaro cause i had no use for it anymore and just so happened my boss had a 1963 Chevy Corvette Kit car unfinished i traded it for and i did nothing to it and wound up trading that for a 1971 Pontiac Lemans with a 400BB out of a 19970 Ram air 4 car. Needed work then i went and traded that for a 1971 Chevelle which is my current one.
So whether you believe me or not IDC i worked hard for what i have today working 2-3 jobs at a time i have pics to prove it if needed but maybe if you had made some risky choices you might be in the same situation.i did have a little help from mom and dad but i also knew alot of people that hired me to work to and so i did get paid pretty decently. Maybe one day your 9-5 minimum wage might work out for you.

Not counting the fact my dad is a collector so knowing the right people always helps.
