Not sure of the weight though. Sounds like a nice set-up. I think you meant 2.02" intake valves on those heads rather than "220". Anyway, something tells me that car doesn's weight much more than 3300 LBS. So I'm sure the go pedal should be pretty responsive to your input. Congrats. :banana2:

Dual quads with a 3.90 rear?

That would be fun!

Who'da thunk? :rolleyes:

Pimp! ........

I don't think the 3300lbs was a guess or an estimate, but more of a "couldn't possibly be more than" number.

Like, I don't think it could be more than 3300 lbs if it was filled with lead.

I'll bet 2800-2900 is more like it, but you'll never know without a scale... then again, it looks great and goes great... so who cares?

[Hotrauder]

Very Very nice. Is drinking in the morning a problem, now? All I need is one more. .... and all my problems go away. Dennis:beer:

Yes exactly. You read me right. ;)
