Thats nuthin.I was drivng in my friends 69 Nova wih a very tired 350 and it blew an EXHAUST VALVE SEAT right out one of the cherry bombs.It had a little miss until I backed o the offending vavle and it was "good as new" with all its estimated mind numbing 150 rear wheel horsepower.

I'm sure it's quite comfortable. High-hp daily drivers are a real treat to own. I wish you the best when you let her streach her legs, as I coud immagine how quickly the tickets could add up.

I have a SL65 with basically the same engine and it is a absolute blast to drive...

Thanks.

I ran 10.9 at 127 with about 30 less wheel horsepower on drag radials.

Hoping to run 10.60s at around 130 with current tune.

Hey Stranger, fill out your profile. There are other lawyers on this site that we know of, some even on a first name basis. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif

A little overdue update.

Recently went 10.60 at nearly 134 with the car and 191 in the standing mile. Not bad for a daily driver.

Great car Charley.

The SL65 is about 100 lbs lighter than my CL. With minor mods (ECU and Airbox) its easily a 10 second car.
