[DeTomaso] Who is going to be at WOT long enough to needFancySchmantzy Race Oil? 6- PANTERA OIL

[asajay at asajay.com]

Hmmmm. . .

Okay, so my plan is to run my 1973 almost stock-as-a-rock Pantera L in  
the Silver State Classic Challenge in the upcoming year.  It's not  
quite "Brock-Stock" but instead has a few minor mods:

- Aluminum Radiator
- Full Roller timing gear/chain set
- Replacement CNC Clutch Master Cylinder
- Soon to be new ball joints and a-arm bushings
- New wheel bearings

well okay, so some thing don't really count as mods, so I'm really  
pretty stock.  The engine has had no major overhaul work, but does  
have a replacement Hollery carb on it.

So what top end do you think I can really get to?  100, 105, 110?   
 From this post, it looks like I shouldn't expect too much.

I'd like to run the SSC at least once with the stock engine, and then  
maybe again some time later with a new home-brew rebuild.
