i have alwaysplaned on 420+ in the long runyou know all it takes is cash anda huge turbo.the bonneville has the best chance to be my fastest 400+ now i dont have a dyno so i don't know how much more but it has a tri turbo going in it if not four turbos lol and a lowrider on the weekends.no hydros on it just the older school spring cut trick.all i did was turn it into a 455 so i have plenty of mods to go

the old "spring-cut trick" isnt exactly safe is it? i mean, unless you are looking for spring rate difference. but im assuming you are looking for a lower ride height, so why not get lowering springs? you could seriously screw yourself up if you cut them wrong.

i probably wont because its low enoughand i don't thinkthey make lowering springs for a 69 bonneville.i know it's abadidea buti would have them done bya pro.hopefully i will find lowering springs for it by then.or i won't do it at all i don't know yet i haven't looked into it yet the neon has been geting the cash lately so i'll look today and see what i can do about it.
