Default Re: My Day 2 LS6 Corvette

I do think it would have pulled a taller gear. There was actually plenty of gas pedal left at the big end. I just didn't want to ventilate the oil pan... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

Tires...we (at least &quot;I&quot didn't know much about speed ratings back then -- the car ran Goodyear Polyglas GT's (yikes). They actually held up well, but I was probably lucky. FYI, at the time, the RCMP highway patrol and detachment cars were all being switched out to BFG Radials at the time....I recall them unloading pretty much a trailer load at our detachment in 1974-75 or so. I suspect they had had enough of steel belted bias plies.... &lt;g&gt;
