ORIGINAL: AllAboutFunHobbies i've also had a 69 gto that i've driven close to 200.
That was a blown alcohol belching GTO right?? It would take a lot of HP to get that car anywhere close to 200. -Derek
actually a car with the right gearing and the pontiac big block, any of them from the 350 to the 455 with only a few high performance parts wouldn't have much trouble getting to 200 mph, especially if it has the muncie 4 speed rockcrusher tranny.
you must have remebered that from previous conversations, because it had a rock crushr trans and if you remember correctally i've said a few times it also had a bad ass 6 barrel carb and it had no problems smoking the tired off, 200 was easy, the speedo only went to 180 but it would peg and keep accelerating.
yep i remember talking about it lol. plus any engine from the late 60's is a true powerhouse espacialy from pontiac and olds.
