Heavy Z Posted June 18, 2002 Share Posted June 18, 2002 Hello, I've enjoyed my '73 240 as it is very hot for an L-series, but I bought this Z on Ebay and when it came to me it needed a new diff (it was clunking so I put in a 3.7 R200, solid mounted) and all I gotta say is - DAMN, NOW I SEE WHAT THE V8 GETS YOU!!! Now I grasp how craZy a Z can be. From only a day in the car I am convinced that you Z guys with big V8 horsepower have got to be nuts or something. As my foot hits the floor at 25 mph in 2nd I feel like I should lean over and tell Chewy not to punch it to light speed... Those of you with insane V8's, my hats off to you. You are the real 'Deathwish', not the crap movies Charles Bronson was peddling years ago. Heavy Z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikelly Posted June 18, 2002 Share Posted June 18, 2002 Man you stole that car... Nice deal! Now you know why we do what we do! Imagine running low 11's and high 10's with Road Race like handling? The possibilities are endless! Welcome to the fold! Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumpyvette Posted June 18, 2002 Share Posted June 18, 2002 ok now you have a basic v-8 (Z) what are your plans to hop it up so it REALLY SCOOTS, youll get over that feeling that its fast the first time some other car beats you on the race track!

DavyZ Posted June 19, 2002 Share Posted June 19, 2002 Yep, you did in fact steal the car. That is a very NICE looking V8Z to say the least. The adrenaline rush should take a few years off your person....or add them depending on how you deal with it!!! Davy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
