what bolt-ons? and how much mileage is on the t/a?

[NJNETSFAN]

The car is pretty much a full bolt-on car. It has headers, full exhaust, ls6 intake manifold, slp lid, skinnies in the front, and 245 50 16 street tires in the back. The car also has a descent amount of weight reduction done to it.

@SabbathRocker1 a 380hp blackbird is only exhaust and air box upgraded.

If this is really a bolt on trans am thats crazy good i almost dont believe it a bolt on T/A should make around 358ish and run like 12.2 and he did it on street tires thats crazy

this is promising, I am putting my ws6 back together now and it will be basically the same setup, minus the weight reduction. hope I can get close to those times!

[98tadriver]

race weight approx 3380 spec stage 3 clutch, launching between 3500-4500. cant remember exact rpm, its been over a year lol

[FMIV1405]

What clutch does he have on the car? And what RPM did he launch at?

[98tadriver]

i have had a 98 T/A for about a year now and it pretty much has full bolt ons, id probably see better times if i had some slicks instead of street tires
