I was told is does standing 12"s as it spins as soon as turbo kicked in so hooking up is a problem with turning & slicks should be in high 11"s I just wish it has a OD trans & not the turbo 400 as i got it to drive daily not to race it....
 
congrats, looks great. I still love the 84-85 wheels and wish they would have kept them on the 86-87s
 
I dont like factory wheels on pretty much any car but would pref the chrome ones from 86-87 to theses aluminum ones but i tossed a set of near new American racing "Outlaws" with goodyear nascar tires today & find i am not loving 15"s on it might try to get a set of 20" dayton wires for it tomorrow new pics of it here with wheels
