Vette(s): 1978 Silver Anniversary model. Original L82 engine, 700r4 trans, edelbrock intake, thorly headers, rack&pinion steering, mono rear and front spring, MSD 6A box
don't know if there is much advantage other than it takes up less space and allows for higher valve covers. the manual brakes (although new) just don't feel adaquit. maybe just that i have pwr braking on everthing else and the manual brakes just don't feel right
PS had the 69 down at the firestation a couple months ago (just to run the engine) state policeman was there and ask how it ran - i said i wasn't sure - and he ask if i wanted to try it out we went up country a few miles and found a spot for it to be clocked..... 162 mph radar verified (darn sure wanted more braking)
