That's pretty much the thinking I'm going with on my 78 Trans Am Bandit car..... love it!

Cheers
Dave

Just an update... took this car to Atco Raceway last Friday and ran it. Was pleased with results. I was worried about breaking the transmission again for the 2nd time, so I babied it off the line. I bet this would go 12's with some tuning and a harder launch.

Nice! That's moving for a 300/327 with some wear and tear (I'm assuming the engine was in it when you bought it), minor mods, and 3.36 gears.

Drivers are the best! My Chevy II has poor body work and a cheap enamel paint job from 1988, but I'm actually OK with that. It still turns heads, and I don't need to worry as much if I decided to use the car to run errands on a Saturday afternoon. You tend to drive them more when they are not perfect.

Yes, this is completely as found except the 4779 750 double pumper. It had a 3310-3 750 vacuum secondary on it when I got it that was junk. Mileage reads 109,000.
