I admit was a bit sceptical myself, having LS6,L88's,LT1's,RAIV's, among many others in my own personal stable as well.

Perfect! You should go out right now with a vacuum gauge and see what they pull at 900 rpm!
Then just to double check, ask Joel what he thinks they should pull.
I am very aware who Motion was and is. There accomplishments are second to none. They were the pioneers in the sport.
It was a different time when the first thing you did was throw on a set of headers and slicks. I doubt Joel ever took a lot of time to try and hook up polyglas tires. Track conditions back then were not what they are today.
Why is it so hard for you to believe that a 3300 lbs ZL1 can go a second quicker than your 4000 LB GTO convertible????
Anyone here with a Moroso power chart????? How much horsepower does it take to make a 3300 lbs car go 115mph????? I've done a little dyno work myself. Matter of fact we did a dyno article on the ZL-1 for Musclcar Enthusiast. We later took the head and intake off for the certified stock class. The camshaft was dead on, cause I too like Marlin, bought it from my GM dealer. So I think i have proved myself lots. I'll be at Martin racing in two week, bring your P&G and your compression tester. It'll pass in it's sleep.
Looking forward to your findings on that vacuum on your "stable L88."
Peter
