Difference between Z51 and base suspension?
Okay, I know you're thinking "newbie!" I know the technical differences, what I'm wondering is how much better a Z51 1994 coupe can handle than a base suspension 1994 coupe. Anyone have skidpad and slalom test numbers? Thanks in advance.

Sorry no numbers for you. Just wanted to compliment you on that '69 Mach I. I had one the exact same color but with the Cleveland motor (built late '69) and the FMX transmission. Sharp looking car...hope someone has the information you are looking for :cheers:

Thanks! I think the Indianfire Red is so neat, I have seen ONE other car, which is a '69 Torino, in that color. It looks ugly brown under flourescent light, but in the sun it looks great. :cheers:
EDIT: I know the '69 and '70 Mach 1 in and out, and I'm pretty familiar with the 351C. Good engine, did yours have the 4v?
