Re: Does anyone happen to know the GVWR

Cool, glad it's working for you. I think I gained 50hp when I put the carb and 7101 intake on my old LG4. the setup I sold you should net about 40hp since that is just the Performer and not the Performer RPM.
Here, take a look at how my Formula is doing,

Re: Does anyone happen to know the GVWR

Where those 50 dyno-hp?? If so, that is a LOT better than I was expecting I am really pissed it's only the Performer, but that will all be changed when/if I get my new heads
BTW.. GREAT video Manny! That thing looks like it handles like a ****! What hp-1/4 numbers you running now?
That Performer carb is running AWESOME. It has throttle response that is IMMENSLY greater than the old q-jet!

Re: Does anyone happen to know the GVWR

I used a G-tech meter to get some numbers on my 86. Not the most accurate but it said 199hp at the wheels.

I am not sure about the hp #'s on the Formula since I haven't dyno'd it yet, but I am thinking somewhere in the neighborhood of 175rwhp since it is still a stock 305 TPI with a Holley SR on it.
Car handles great since the suspension is in good working order. Pretty much all WS6 cars should handle this way.

Re: Does anyone happen to know the GVWR

I paid $75.
I also just bought a set of Z06 wheels today. I can't wait to see how they look on the car.
18x9.5 front and 18x10.5 in the rear.
