sooo...what you have done to your car?
pretty much your basic carb motor has a small 214/214 cam in it. Nothing to brag about just something to cruise around with since my twin turbo setup went boom.

All this talkin' is making me very inpatient for the car season to start, still a few months to go
I don't understand the point of car lengths either. If your car is slower then you are gonna be run into the ground and pick something to race thats more your size right??

maybe we will run into eachother too some day... but frankly I never see any fbodies

xpndbl3- i better hurry lol.

Yes, normally I would think you'd want to pick something that will give ya a decent run because IDK, I don't think its that exciting to win by a longshot vs. winning by a length or something...

I don't see a whole lot of Fbodies around here either

Ah, thought you meant Eldorados like the one in my pic.

The Deville was infact RWD. Only Eldorado was FWD in that era. But they weren't at all powerful by the time that car was built (1976), it was a 500ci engine with 190 emissions-compliant low-compression horsepower. I think the same engine was rated at/near 400hp back in 1970 though.

meh no big deal, for how many hours were spent building the thing I would have been better off and cheaper to build TWO nitrous combos that could blow up over the years than this one twin turbo setup.

And I was wrong on the liters too, it was 8.2. Still I would like to see what that guy was talking about.

Wow 10 pages and we're up to 3 Ladies.

I've never seen any females in F-Bodies when I was cruisin around, and I don't think I've run into a majority of you guys either.

I do remember there was a guy in a NBM Camaro with white stripes and a Girl in a Silver/Pink MustangGT who I'd drive by every day during the summer, and we'd always chuck the dueces at each other through the T-Tops.
