Re: Completed 89 IROC Build

Very nice work, Ken! I love the idea of a stroked 305. I'll give a closer look at MCACN.

Outstanding, those are some serious HP and torque numbers you put up, similar mods are on the bucket list for my 305.

Beautiful build, and impressive numbers from that 305! What kind of rims are those? They look perfect on your car.

Re: Completed 89 IROC Build

Ken, just visited your web page, you guys do some impressive builds! http://www.mascarauto.com/ Is the IROC for personal use or a customer car??

Re: Completed 89 IROC Build

Side story on this car.

I have a friend who at the time was looking for a blue, 5 speed, t-top IROC. Someone I know on TGO, texted me this car's CL ad, since it was fairly local to me. I figured I'd wait the 2 days to get home before talking to my friend about it. By the time I got home, Ken had already bought it. Small world!

Same! This is so much cooler than an LS swap.

Re: Completed 89 IROC Build

Thanks for the compliments. I put about 200 miles on her and she is really fun to drive. Kevin is going to tune her on the chassis dyno this Saturday.

Re: Completed 89 IROC Build


I Had a 83 HO L69 Red 5 Speed , It was a Ex showroom stock car from a GM engineer with the Red Camaro Camaro seats, back in 1984.. Then in 1990 I built this Super Stocker. These two cars made me fall in love with the Thirdgens. So I am glad to have one back in my hands..
