200,000 mile LX. The only thing on the car is underdrive pullies, H-pipe, flowmaster 2 chambers and 4.10's. I did remove the following from the car: Smog, A/C and front sway bar. This was running the car on ET Streets.

R/T Time .466
60 Foot 1.824
330 Foot 5.722
1/8 Mile 8.763
1/8 MPH 77.08
1000 FT 11.490
1/4 Time 13.785
1/4 MPH 98.17

Pretty sweet. Perfect example of what traction & a set of gears can do for a low HP car!!

Thanks guys. I have a few more things I want to do to the car. I think I can get 12's out of it.

Very nice times and nice looking 5.0. 200,000 miles on it and still running strong, guess the 5.0's were made to last.

Why stop at 12's why not shoot for 10's? I had an LX like that back in the 80's loved that car it wooped up on everything at that time.

I'm trying to 12's out of the stock motor. I'm gonna add a 65mm TB and a new MAF and see what I get out of it. Once this motor goes I'll start on the 331
