[QUOTE="xblitzkriegx, post: 16366190, member: 105608"] i did, lol. before that, i had a 69 barracuda notchback when i was 18-21. i wanted something a little different. the Calais S auto was stock. the I-series had a 2.5" exhaust, homemade inner fender CAI, and the chip from a W41 Calais (higher redline, slightly different timing and fuel). best 1/8mile in that car was a 9.70 @ 74mph on a street tire and on DRs it ran a 9.50 with a slipping clutch. the GTZ was stock. the GA GT was rebuilt with 11.5:1 pistons, forged rods, 226/.410 lift cams, titanium retainers, and an extremely rare Olds race chip from a scca world challenge car. had a lightweight flywheel and a spec 6 puck clutch. it pulled hard to 8k and was a lot of fun to drive on the street. the Achieva was gutted and had a cage. it was the autocross car. it had a leftover blueprinted W41 from the firehawk series a long time ago. it also had a 1 5/8" to 1 3/4" step header. didnt take it to the strip either but it was fast enough to outrun ls1/auto camaros and modded new edge mustangs on the days id drive it to work. it weighed 2620lbs with the cage and a full tank of gas. not long after, i found a hell of a deal on a 97 cobra vert and bought it. i own that car to this day and still daily it with 83k. here an extremely old vid of the achieva idling with the blueprinted W41 engine. the cams were factory stock, notice the lumpy idle...for a 4 banger.
