It's hard for me to race my Tib against my '75 Camaro. I haven't mastered driving 2 cars at once!!!
My time slips for both tell a sad tale for the Tib though. sad.gif
Just for anyone who cares:
1975 was the heaviest year Camaro built.
My '75 weighs 3982lbs with an 1/8 tank of gas. This was measured on a highway truck scale.
Oh almost forgot 1975 also had the least hp. My 350cu. puts out from the factory 145hp. I am not b.s.ing this.

I forgot to mention that it also has 347lbs-ft of torque. She also topped out at 125mph @ 4600rpm.
After rebuild:
??? hp
??? mph
But it is quite quick.
If you are ever up in Canada with your car you should give me a ring.

Sorry I have to defend my Camaro...She's my first car. *gettin' sentimental*

No problem bud I am still sentimental about my old 69 mustang that I had and all the rest of the cars that I ever owned! Mainly my 88 turbo thunderbird that I had.
Now that car was sweet!! 2.3liter turbo intercooled with some special mods of my own Factory rated at 190hp. I had it up somewhere around 240 to 250 horse with 18 psi of boost and a huge intercooler from a toyota supra that I fabricated to work! So I know what it means to defend your car!!!!

And if I am ever up in the area you bet we will GET IT ON!!!!!!!! Later man
