I had to give my helper a ride home today, and while going across the bridge had to get on it (as much as you can get on a 4.8) to pass some big trucks. It took the usual 3 seconds, kicked down a gear and slowly accelerated (4.8 remember) My helper made a comment about what size my engine was. (He rode in my Z71 once, but with the swampers, TB verter, and stock cam) Made me remember, when my Z had the small street tires, it would have got sideways, left a couple of black lines, and gotten sideways climbing the bridge. The Phantom is still in the front of the house, but now I want another toy. I gotta let this one go, but may be looking for a 99+ after the '76 is running for another toy. Come to think of it, with my plans for my '76 it may turn out to be more of a toy than I was wanting/expecting.

I originally just wanted something I could cruise on the weekends, and hit the car shows, that looked good, sounded good, and was pretty with the hood open. Planning on running a 5.3, shaving the heads, bout a 224/226 cam on a 110LSA +4*, Vic Jr injected intake, and about a 32-3400 stall, true duals with LT's and Quickflow mufflers and 3.73's. Got to thinking today, it may be a little more fun to drive than I planned on, but I still think a 99+ would be fun to have again with a forged 402, big cam, 3400 stall and 3.90's or 4.10's
