GENUINE BARBADOS GREEN LH SLR 5000 ALL MATCHING TAGS, CAR HAS HAD A RICH HISTORY IN DRAG RACING IN SYDNEY AND WHEN I PURCHASED THE CAR IN LATE 2007 HAD RUN A BEST TIME OF 10.00@134MPH WITH A HOLDEN 355 BUILT BY SAMS PERFORMANCE ( THIS ENGINE IS FORSALE TOO) 0407733239 IT HAD A TURBO 400 AND A 5000 STALL AND 4.33 GEARS WITH A 28X10 SLICK AND RAN A 1.36 60 FT TIME WITH STOCK SUSPENSION ?? THE CAR SINCE I PURCHASED IT HAS HAD GRILL BADGE HEAD LIGHT SURROUNDS AND GRILL PAINTED BACK TO ORIGINAL , CARPET FITTED AND A ORIGINAL DASH PUT BACK IN TO REPLACE THE ALLOY PANEL DASH THAT WAS THERE.
IT HAS ALSO HAD THE MOTOR REPLACED WITH A 496 CU  BBC WITH 4 bolt ls7 block billet caps,little bit of concrete in the block,full stud kit, roller cam with 714 lift and 273&277 duration @112 lobe sep, pro topline alloy heads 320,flow 720 hp with yella terra platinum race rockers, edelbrock victor single plain, eagle crank 4340 and h beam rods, 1150 cfm pro sytem dominator, and msd ignition,motor made 777hp on race fuel@6900rpm and 660ft @ 4900 rpmn,and on premium unleaded 747hp & 635 ft in a 3650 lb chevy nova it ran 9.90@138 mph so i,m hoping for better than that and i will drive to the track . i took the turbo 400 out and put IN A BOB GRANT RACEGLIDE WITH A 4800RPM STALL  AND NOW HAVE 29.5X12X15 SLICKS AND CENTRELINE WARRIOR RIMS AND STILL HAVE THE 4.33 RATIO DIFF BUT MAY DROP IT TOO 3.9 OR 3.7 AS I,M WORRIED ABOUT RPM UP TOP.
