Just curious on this and if it'll be worth my project.

Thanks in advance!
2.2 will probably get you around 15.00 with supporting mods.

A bit lower than that in an H body, but alot lower in a Pre-Gen GP, which is what we're talking about here.
And I'm pointing out to him what to expect in a smaller car.

You know, i never even thought to ask what bonne'* weigh. I'm sure it'* a bit heavier than my coupe GP...although it is still heavy. But the bonne'* probably still have a couple hundred on me.

So you think the M62 in my GP with the 2.2" pulley and a real good tune-up can run a border 15?

I'd bet high 14'*.

My car in STREET trim weighs an even 4000 pounds. Track trim probably 3500 with me in it.

Oh ****, didn't know they were THAT heavy! My GP'* curb weight is approx 3200 without me in it...and i'm an additional 220. So damn, maybe i can get high 14s with a nice tuneup and small pulley

also...i eventually plan on cam'n it for higher RPM pull. So far it looks like these engines are good for mid/low end, which is cool for a jump, but i don't want to hang in first gear for 10 seconds like this damned 3.1 does. It'* got very good mid/low, fair mid, and absolutely no high.
