Re: poly bushing or not to poly bushing

That's a sweet car they drive and handle very nice.

A young friend of mine has a firehawk that he has put alot into, and it ripps!
His car can get quite squirrelly on regular street tires, like it's on a wet street.
But when he puts on the nitto drag radials it grabs and puts you into the seat, only if they are warm though.

I forgot to say my shock bushings on the back are rubber too.

Never gave a thought too the torque arm ,is your car a auto or manual trans?
Either way poly in your driveline and rear suspention will really help transfer your power to the wheels but in return they will create more wheel spin.

I wanted to keep the 80's high school hot rod
Look too mine.

I usually keep an eye on your gen f body's if I come across a good cheap z I would love to build a new twin too mine.

Since mine is a 81(last yr for this body) it was the first of the computer controlled camaro's.
It has had its complete harnness swapped out though and It also started life as a 231 v6 3spd manual on the floor car.
This yr. In aug. Marks 26yrs. I owned it.
And to think 3mo. After I bought it I allmost traded it for a nice 85 saab turbo....way glad I wasn't that dum! lol

Here's a few pics for ya.

Do the poly,you won't regret it.
