It stops really well with the factory Chevelle discs up front and stock 9.5" drums in the rear, I had it on a scale, and it weighs 3080 lb w/ a 1/4 tank of gas, so much lighter than a stock 69-72 Chevelle.

It's a bit of a sleeper. Small 14&quot; whitewall radials are no match for the drivetrain. Nail it from a 20 mph roll in first, and it will keep them spinning and squealing all the way through 2nd. With 3.36 gears, that's like 60 mph before they actually bite. Lots of fun. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/wink.gif[/img]
