Hell yeah! Your car is a monster Gael I could only view 2 of them for some reason, but keep 'em comming. Just pictures get old after a while, so it's nice to see some II's in action
Sweet ride Gael. What are the specifics on that bad boy! The last post I read was from a year ago and that thing was in the 15's. Let us know what you did. Whatever it was you did it well. Now I wanna go to the strip. Ok T0basc0, I guess that means we're headed up to Union Grove !!!

Very nice, you and your Dad are making the II proud! I havnt been able to get mine to the track yet but took it out to the street for a test run. I spun a lot in 1st so I hit second to try and grab traction but it just blew the tires away. (lotsa smoke ) I had to back all the way out of the throttle then get back in it. I hope to run 12's like you are. I have a very similar setup except a tad bigger cam and only 357 CI.
When you do run, run slicks! The difference is AMAZING. I ran on 245/60/R14s a while ago, and my "launch" was rolling off the clutch then getting on it. With the slicks at 18psi, I'm revving at 3500 and dropping the clutch and going, and it just rockets off. I seriously have a hard time keeping my foot to the floor.
