Wow nice results with stock L92s! Not sure if you still visit the site where did you get the radiator hold downs and the radiator hoses?

Thanks for the link for the overflow it looks ten times better then the original

No problem on the link, glad I could help!

As far as the radiator mounts I just took some pieces of aluminum that I had laying around and bent up a bracket myself and painted them. The radiator hose I just picked up at O'reilly's. I bent a piece of wire in the rough shape I needed and took it up there and they let me go in the back and pick through the wall of them they have, and found the best match. I believe the lower hose is for a 79 malibu though. I can probably round up a part number for both hoses if you really need it.

Well I finally got the car down to the track last night, it went 11.49@118 w/ 1.74 60'! I'm pretty happy with that I was foot braking the car and short shifting at 6000 rpm so I know there's more on the table maybe so .30's or .20's if I can get the 60' knocked down a little.

What was your 1/8 mile time and mph if you don't mind me asking?

11.49 with a 1.74 60' damn I wish my car had the top end that yours did!

This car has more left in it, if i do say so myself. I'm betting it'd go high 10's.

That was with the flat worn out radials that were on it when I bought it from you and a slipping transmission!!! If I ever get some free time again I will head back to the track and shoot for a high 10 second pass on motor then see what she will do on the bottle!
