Default Re: octane boost

Sam: there very well may be a 200+ pound difference, as I honestly won't know until I roll the car on the scales. But, from what I've seen of comparably equipped '69 Chevelles, and the portly weight of our Camaro, I just think it's gonna be under 200. I've always felt our Camaro was heavy, even for what it is (auto, ps)...maybe because it's all original metal?

I think the A/S cars are around 3400??? Small block cars around 3200??? You put that yellow car on a small diet you may see 12 teens.

With me in the seat, and around a 1/4 tank of fuel, our Camaro goes 3740 pounds. I don't even want to wrap my mind around what would happen if I dropped 350 pounds...heck, that's COPO Pete territory!
