color is flame red metallic w/pearl. paint is about a year old now.






went from red interior to black




and a motor pic


and i ditched the automatic

 

Looks good, I really like your paint. What kind of times are you pulling with the t56/383 combo? What gears are you running in the rear?

 

thanks. made one run with the t56 in the car. had a stock clutch in it. and on that run the throw out bearing came loose and destroyed the clutch. still pulled off a 13.7 probably wont run the car till next week or later.

and i have a 10bolt with 3.42s in it. the new clutch and a few other expenses dont allow for a new rear or other things right now.

 

Nice car...........excellent colour choice

 

How much would a good paint job like that cost?

 

well i had a good buddy paint it so i got a deal on it. but im sure that this guy that painted mine would be around 2500 for a similar job.

 

Dang thats a nice car

 

Saw somebody with camera filming you draging. Where's the vid. at?? Let's see it.

 

only vid i have of the car. this is with the auto. it had a 2200 stall and didnt like to shift into 3rd at WOT.

lost my hard drive a few months ago. so im still trying to recover videos of the car.

 

What numbers did you pull on that dyno run??

 

thats a sweet 'maro! amazing!

 

well... actually. 295hp and 365tq. it was right after the car was up and running. but now im around 400hp and 390tq.

 

That's cool man, glad you got your car running good. So, what mods did you do to up the ponies 105 hp? Very nice car. Kind of partial to the flame red.

 

it was just running bad. lil bit of tuning, new cap, switched from delco to AR133 plugs, fixed a slight headgasket leak, and a can of sea foam.

 

Nice, they sure do run better when there tuned.
