I have a friend of a friend who has one that he is 1st owner of. I'm gonna have to ask my one friend to call his friend and see what's up with it.

I love those cars, my favorites are Bill Anderson's single turbo V6, ran 7.59 best IIRC and Chris Chow's twin turbo 394, 8.30 at 166mph IIRC.

One of my best freinds as a 87' GN that he bought with 28K miles on it ( now has 32K miles on it, after 4 years ).

It made 238whp and like 340LBS of torque... BONE STOCK !! Like 1987 GM air filter stock !!!

It also ran 12.80 here in FL with ONLY a set of BFG DRs and a set of weld drag lites ( the rims stangs have used for the last 20 years ) !!

It now runs 10's and has a T-67 PTE TURBO... Stock heads and cam !!!

It goes 0-60 in 3.7sec's on DRs !!

GN ownz !!! Too bad its a boat, and has 1987 interoir ( its pretty funny watching the 85mph speedo get maxed in like 4seconds !!!
