Hello G-body lovers. We run an 87 cutlass at our local 1\2 mile circle oval. We currently are running a 350 w\mild cam, 350 transmission, and 3.42 rear in 2nd on a half mile oval. Our best lap is a 24.484, and the leaders (camaros) are running 22-23.... We are thinking of going 4.56 in high gear (drive)....anyone have any thoughts for us? any questions about the car, just ask. right now we hit about 5400 rpm going in to the corner, and 3 grand or so coming out. gotta make this thing faster! And any handling tips would be appreciated. 🙂
 
forgot to mention we are currently running a mini spool for 26 spline axles. (legal at our track. welded rearends are out) we are running 225\70\15 right front, and 215\70\15 lefts and rear right.
