Thread: Yay my GTP runs

well went to see her today, first time in 4 months, battery was dead, jump started it and started right up, headers were rusty, and spiders Invaded but it was nice to hear it run again and see it. I have a lot of work in front of me thats needed though, damn should of taken pictures.

I need head gaskets, Intake gaskets, 1.9Rockers, cam (maybe), 3.2 pulley, belt, And i believe thats it.

Oh and maybe find some heads, and get them ported, hopefully aluminum heads. with some nice springs.

Cool! maybe it wont be slow as a turd like them dang GXP's!

^^Totally!

Aluminum heads? You got 2K to drop on those? LOL I'd get the stockers ported and save yourself some coin...

Its all good lol. but really, explain. On a good cold day I can get 0-60 in maybe 5 sec flat with maybe a 13.6 1/4 mile(cold day), and on a good cold day, I would guess you MIGHT(if your pretty much stock) get 4.7 or 4.8? with maybe a 12.8-13.2 1/4? it just a guess but whats the slow factor on mine? But I do agree they should do a little more for a 5.3 but my excuse is its a 4 dr grocery getter lol.
