  • Looks like it's time for a rear sway bar or maybe an airbag. What was your 60 foot time?

  • the best 60 ft. time is 1.58

    yes I do think a sway bar would have helped,but I did this with no bolt on stuff,as I wanted to remove all the good stuff from the car,and use it on one of my other cars,so that why I did not get any specifice bolt on parts for the caprice.

  • nice run,was wondering what size tires you used in the rear and what rear end? i got a 87 4 door with a punched out 454 with a nice cam and alumi rpm eldbrock heads.

  • the rear tires are hoosier quick time pro 27x10 x15.

    the rear end is the stock 10 bolt 8.5 with a 3.73 gear.

    good luck with your car.

see all
