The stall is a PTC 4500.... it will foot brake about 4000rpm.
A 6spd is def hard on the IRS. My 92 6spd has broken everything and only runs 1.70 60fts... low 11's at a blistering 127mph.
Please don't use my 84 as proof of anything. Even with all the thought that went into the rest of the car to optimize it for the IRS - It's JUST DUMB LUCK that the car hasn't broken the IRS yet. Like I said next year I'm converting the car to a solid rear because even if the IRS stays together, the car is a handful at this power level on a marginal track and it's only going to get more powerful as the class progresses.
OP, I'm sorry for hi-jacking your thread.
