Thumbs up

Great looking car. I love those cars. I almost bought one a while back. The car was from Florida and in mint condition. I am kicking myself now BIGTIME!
Any more pics?

(My buddy has an '87 with a 10 point roll cage with 27lbs of boost and on meth. Runs high 11's @ 117, but he's trying to get into the low 11's, high 10's. He says it needs some tuning and it should be about there.)

He needs tires not tuning.117 should be 11.20 - 11.40.Get it to hook then add more power.27#s is on the edge for a stock block unless he has all the good stuff.
This car ran 10.30 @127 with stock block and heads.

Very nice! Nice shot of your car.
Yeah, he says he doesn't get great traction. He's always popping out the t-tops and the drivers window on launch.
