She is pretty!
12s is impressive. Did you run slicks and skinnys at the track?
Love the Crager SS style rims

12.5s back then was a lot of work. If I remember correctly I think they were G60 14s, and I had Lakewood traction bars. Hooking up was difficult.

GM claims my 2019 Z51 Vette will do 11.9 from the factory. Haven’t raced it yet though.

When I clocked 13.2 with my 79 Z/28 I felt like I achieved something big. I took the 350 out and turned it into a 383 stroker. I think the trans was a TH350 but I cant remember for sure. I remember putting a manual valve body in at some point. I know the torque converter was around 3000 rmp and that went to a 4:11 rear. My biggest problem was hitting the holeshot right. When I think back at all the money I sunk into that car .... :rolleyes:


I dont know if I would personally race the vette
 
12s were no problem for this stock 750 Kawasaki 2 stroker

When I say race, I mean a few runs down the 1/4 mile. I took the 2010 Camaro to the track after it had 1000 miles on it. Still had paper plates when I raced it. Did 13.3 on my first run. Ran it about 30 more times after various mods. Best time was 12.75. It was my DD. :dood:
