Now the funs starts, you will find that your motor/tranny choice will be quite hair raising at times. I have 450hp with a t-56, 6th gear is almost useless except for gas milage. I hit 165mph @4500rpm in 5th at Firebird. Look at the Proautosports or Nasa websites for track dates, it is the only way that you are going to be able to open up even partially
Thanks for the info. I'll be looking into it after I get it on the road, legal, and all the bugs worked out. I'd love to get her on the track and stretch the legs. What rear ratio do you have and what rpm do you cruise at with 6th?

Why cover up that beauty with a car body. It is perfect just the way it is.
As much as I'd like to leave it this way. The body is what attracts me. Sorry to say but I've admitted I'm a typical guy and looks come first..haha
