Just want to shout to the world that tomorrow I FINALLY get my '81 X-11!!! Time cant fly by fast enough. Hopefully I will be able to post pics. And dont worry, even though I am currently in Oregon, TR will be represented (I had some custom TR stickers made up just for this car, sorry suprakid).
Cant wait to be back in Tampa though, prices and shit are way too damn high out here.
Peace.
P.S. For those who are wondering (and those that arent) yes I will be driving this 200k mile car back to Florida.

 

post a pic no clue what this car is .. thanks

 

Will post as soon as I get them. The car is a 1981 Chevy Citation X-11. The racing version of the Citation and also the ORIGINAL FWD sport compact muscle car. Do a yahoo search for Citation X-11

 

Actually, to save ya'll the trouble check this site out:

Specs?

 

2.8 HO V6 (8.9 compression) carb'd. Functional cowl induction, fibreglass hood, rear spoiler, rallye gauges, magnesium(sp?) wheels. Former SCCA showroom stock race car.
Since I havent driven the car yet I cant give any e/t's but I can tell you that with a motor swap the car has potential to run 12's in the quarter on street tires.

 

if it's a rare car why do a motor swap? booger up something else.

 

Motor swap from carb to FI. 2.8's are nice and all but can be rather limited in what can be done to them. The swap I mentioned was from 2.8 carb to 3800 supercharged series 2. 145hp (if I rember correctly) vs. around 3-400hp. And the swap is a direct drop in.

 

What's so great about it if you have to swap the motor to get what you want out of it?
