im looking for some one to race most likely a nother v6 camaro any one what to race i live in laurel de

 

ditch the v6 before you start racing My 85 Berlinetta with a 2.8 MPFI ran a 17.52 The v6 cars are very easy to change to v8s all you do is move the motor mounts the holes are already there in the crossmember as far as the front suspension goes its all the same i put a 406 in a 83 sport coupe very easy to do and a 9 inch out of a 77 cougar is a direct bolt in if you want to ditch the 7.5 10 bolt

 

"and a 9 inch out of a 77 cougar is a direct bolt in if you want to ditch the 7.5 10 bolt"

never heard that before

 

yep its a direct bolt in just change the yokes on the driveshafts the late 70s cougars have the same suspension setup as a 3rd gen they are identical

 

torque arm mount?
what width rear are you talking about?
pictures?
year or cougar?
I've never heard of any other car other than 4th gens using thirdgen interchangeable rears before.
(I think your thinking second generation camaro)

 

The 77-79 cougar uses the same identical suspension setup as a 3rd gen minus the torque arm this rear is just a hair wider than a 7.5 10 bolt once its under the car u cant tell, the rear bolted right in the car and we used the torque arm eliminator kit from jegs it was a 85 camaro that had a 2.8 MPFI and is now a 406 small block car runs 11.20s all motor and the rear end is stock exept for the spool and 4.11s

 

Am I the only one that can't tell if this is just a bad joke or what?

I can tell you that nothing ford built used even a vaguely similar rear suspension.

 

I'm thinking bad joke
I want some pictures (ie proof)
what part number for the jegs kit?
(Still thinking this is true for a second gen not third)

 

2nd gens are all leaf spring cars, no joke at all go to budds creek and look for a bright red 85 sport coupe has weld wheels, red roll cage, and a dale earnhardt tag on the back, the only thing we had to change on the camaro to bolt this rear in was the driveshaft thats it you would be suprised as to what fits on a chevy from a ford

 

pictures
what part number for the jegs kit?

 

haha i run 13s man

 

When is the Delmar strip opening? Haven't been in years, looking forward to this summer. Just got plates for my old sport coupe, hopefully have it on the road in a month or so.

 

dude that just had a teast and tune look at the web page

 

yea, and? a 85 is a third gen and has a TA rear suspension with coil springs.

 

got to love people making stuff up
no proof = bad joke

 

hmm, I'd run you, but laurel is a bit far from me (i live in newark DE). If you run 13s, you don't want to run a V6 thirdgen... 99% of them aren't anywhere near that. Blowout races are no fun

ever been to cecil? If you wanted to run, im usually up there on saturdays for test and tune.

 

Proof your V6 runs 13's?

 

tpivette89 no i have never been there but i would love to go some day u pay my way lol and Killert u have to know ur car and work at it im runing a 2 setup nx kit 373 in the rearend and a bult 700r4 and alot of motor work i would love to do a m90 gtp supercharger

 

so no proof? Timeslips? dyno runs?

 

You know, there's so much BS in this thread I don't even know what it's about anymore... you wanna race a 6 cylinder... I'll race you in my truck, of course it's an almost 4ton diesel, but with 900lb-ft and 4.10's behind the 36" tires it moves OK... At least much better than anything that big should ever move.

 

yep all bs
