[Shotimes] my 89 SHO Sr 72 update

[Dave Kegel]

All that and '96 brakes!!!  You'll be getting out-braked by pickup trucks.
Get some Wilwoods on there.  The '96 brakes are heavy, not to mention the
lame single piston.

And before anyone rags on me, we're talking about a track car here.  Not
your Sunday_go_to_meetin' SHO.

LPM that it will be close to 300HP. In its stripped down version now .. it
is a hell of a ride.
