Ya i would agree with that. Although i dont seem to have a "dog" below 2500 rpm by any means. i guess its hard to explain. car seems to go OK. but i am comparing it to my 07 impala SS. My ss would definitly beat the bird . car has a very slight off idle stumble which i would assume is the carb. Once its past that (matted) ;-) 5200 RPM comes up fast , shifts a little late for me so i manually shift it for now.2nd gear same thing revs right back up to 5200 aftter RPM drop, then 3rd again 5200 comes up pretty fast. speedo not working just going by feel . seat of the pants feel says it SOUNDS like im going fast but im not. i'll use my gps today and see just how fast i am going in 3rd..

Thanks
Bob
