Another pissn contest thread.

Most 3800sc have a speed limiter regulating top speed of 130. Probably can be over ridden.

1/4 mile 12-14 seconds. depending on drivers skill.

Mine has a rev limit of 6350 and the 5 speed Getrag. It hits 120mph with alarming ease at about 3400-3500 RPMs if I remember. (Hate looking at gauges at those speeds) It will go a lot faster than 130mph

I was behind skitime during a spirited jaunt down the highway.

My speedo was reading 110 mph, and ski was pulling away like there was no tomorrow!

Stock 3800SC series II. About 13.8 seconds in the quarter. Can run high twelves with about $600 US worth of parts and some time.
