not bad even with 2:73 gear, I know that would scare you.. before
it had patricks 3:55 ring and pinion and their 4 speed modified sagnaw transmission.. that sucker was quick even with the 235, drove it for about 7 yrs and then replace it with the five speed...much better gas mileage, and less rpm for sure on the engine... both worked well though..
how about 10,000 loonies and 5,000 toonies for a start..
enjoy your posts and response..take care my friend
