Thought I would post up a link to my little youtube video.Just messing around with a digital camcorder and I was impressed how well it picks up sound.

Specs;

l24 274f cam

headers and true dual exhausts

lightened flywheel

triple Mikuni 40's

3.90 diff

Steve,

Watched your video, it sounded like you chirped 3rd gear. Looked like a lot of fun. Do you know what you are putting down at the wheels?

Charles

Yes it will catch 3rd! With SU's it was 155RWHP

-with Triples ?

That's great. Since these cars are so light adding just a little power goes a long way. Gearing helps too.

Charles

Nice! Wish I could do some performance upgrades to my 77 280. What steering wheel is that and what gauge is that in place of the clock?

Bob

Momo

LC-1 wideband O2 sensor

Restricted by CA law on upgrades ?

Here's an interesting comparison. This video is older and with SU carbs and I believe a 3.54 diff.

I think it's easy to tell which video the car is running the lower gears. Also notice how nicely you can ' blip' the throttles on the Mikunis . Advantage of having carbs with accelerator pumps.

Restricted by CA law is exactly it Steve. I used to run SU's when I lived in Vegas for a short period of time and I loved them and the adjust-ability I had using them. Here you can't even polish anything under the hood without the smog police running square up your a$$!
