Andy - a15cro Posted September 26, 2021 Author Posted September 26, 2021 Just now, Rush Motorsport said: what a beast of an engine! 130bhp?Ā Out the factory at 190bhp on the Z28, Iāve put alloy heads, bigger carb, inlet, header pips, removed the smog kit, so itās running a bit more now, although I canāt tell you what because I just donāt know!Ā Ā 5.7 350 small block V8 - About 12mpg, but loads more āsmiles to the gallonā š Quote
Captain Colonial Posted September 27, 2021 Posted September 27, 2021 Ah, that takes me back! š Very tidy Z! Ā The interior and the cloth on those seats are in good shape considering the age. Ā In hotter US climates, you had the choice of those velour ones that, when you were hot and sweaty, grabbed you like Velcro and made getting out of the car a challenge as you tried to break free; or vinyl seats that after an hour in the sun acted like a full body branding iron. 𤣠2 Quote
Captain Colonial Posted September 27, 2021 Posted September 27, 2021 Oh, and Iām guessing the car parked on the right of the Z was a mid 70s Ford LTD Crown Victoria, a veritable tartās boudoir / velour & fake wood palace on wheels connected to a memory foam suspension. Ā Generally a car your parents had and borrowed as a teenager to go somewhere to āparkā with your girlfriend⦠š Quote
