Ahhh, 280 hp & 350 tq GM probably should've tried those in the camaro but I doubt that would've gone over well. I can already hear the redneck asking where's the v8?

Different strokes for different folks.
Closest they came was the Turbo 6 out of the Grand National they put in Firebirds for a special edition. Love that motor!!
glad you live in OH
Yep theyput the 4.9 turbo in the indy pace car editions in 1980. My grandparents have one. White with a red bird and matching interior w/ T-tops. Nothing like a undersized turbo with a motor that was over emissioned with low hp and tq. What can I say though, my 79 TA only came with 220hp and I think 240tq from the factory and weighs almost a rv. All show and no go, but it looks sick on the street and everyone thinks it's fast. NOT! Stil fun to drive and cruise around in.Different strokes for different folks.

Speaking of that, I can't get the one I bought from you to stay on the windshield. Is there a proper way to prep the suction cups with rubbing alcohol or something? Or maybe the glass is too cold in the winter? It keeps falling off.

yeah, that also happened to me. make sure the glass and the cup are clean, and put a little of saliva on the cup (no joke)
I need to get another one...

It needs some things here and there, but overall, I'm pretty pumped about it! Main thing is, it needs a 100 point detail job. There's wax residue everywhere...absolutely everywhere. The interior needs a real good scrub too. It's in good shape though, and will look like brand new when I'm done with it! The driver side all weather OEM floor mat is worn though in a few spots, so that's not been too effective in keeping the crap off the carpet. lol And a few times now, there's been a weird grind after startup? Almost like hitting the key when the car is already running, a starter type grind.
