Not much technical, but a good rear if you haven't seen it.

I think Charley has said that's his favorite car to drive. That or The Thrasher....can't remember. After reading that tech article on it, all I've got to say is.....thank God for bolt-on parts because there is no way in hell I would have figured any of that out.

It rides great. The ZF 6 spd shifts better than any T56 I have had. Car is 10 years old and getting a facelift. Time seems to be flying. Will get new paint, rebuild the engine with different crank, different intake and throttle body. Same wheels and look. I love that car.

I am glad you said that Charley. It makes me feel better about buying the ZF 6 speed for my 68 Camaro. BTW, what clutch is in the car now or if changing, what will be going back in. I still have not made up my mind about a clutch yet. The Red Witch is my favorite too!

does the ZF have a different bolt pattern than a standard chevy pattern, did it need some type of adapter plate or did it just bolt right up like a t56?
