Re: JoeG's 1969 Baldwin Motion SS L78 Chevelle
hvychev,
Thanks for posting photos- [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif[/img]---I've got to get this scanning thing in gear-----
Just about to shut computer down and saw your post---
HP----Just listed as the L78 factory rating 396/375-
that was just on paper---- on dyno was over 450---- rear wheels would start to hop off the dyno wheels .,had L-60-15 MT on, the rollers on this particular machine had a hard time with these tires---------for insurance purposes the vehicle was listed as a 1969 Chevelle V8
Other Motion cars in Brooklyn------,sorry to say I never ran into another Motion car, at least they weren't saying ---I didn't advertise the fact either---I was like- TIM ALLEN & JAY LENO ---I'm running stock.
.Yes -----drove it to car hang-outs -to put together some runs, but I did drive it around--- In the begining , the 456 gears would run about 3000rpm at 50/55mph on the highway ,did that for about 1 year.-took a little getting use to and if I remember correctly gas was 35 cents gal Sunoco 102octane?----JoeG
