I had to take the door panel off my car today and I found the build sheet !! Now I know why it handles so well , other than the few things I've done. It was ordered with heavier coil springs, I also found out why I get terrible gas mileage around town besides lots of hills here. It was ordered with 2.29 ratio!? Well you can probably guess what my next mod. is . I have a ring and pin. set in the garage 3.18 should help lower end a lot! especially after the new motor I just ordered , its the 365hp GM motor!! Anyway , my car was built in Fremont, CA and sold in Valeho which is about 200 miles west of  here!
