This is my '69 convertible. It features a 350 and 4 speed. No air, not even power steering. But it is still a blast to drive! The motor features an aluminum intake, Holley carb, headers, a pretty lumpy cam, Edelbrock aluminum heads, and other go-fast goodies. At the dyno, we got 275 hp and 325 ft-lbs torque at the rear wheels. I made a couple of passes at our 1/8 mile drag strip, but with the street tires the best I could manage was an 8.96. Sticky tires ought to knock another tenth or two off of that. ![]() This is my other fast car, an '87 Buick Turbo Regal. Not nearly as flashy as the Vette, but sometimes stealth has its advantages! It features a turbocharged 3.8 liter V6 (same drivetrain as the more famous Grand National). My best ET to date has been an 8.26, at just over 80 MPH in the 1/8 mile. Since that time, I have installed a bigger turbo and injectors. Just got to get it dialed in now!
