This is my 85 GLH N/A (naturally aspriated). Stock the N/A GLH runs about a 17flat 1/4 mile, which in comparison to other performance cars from the late 70s and early 80s such as Camaros and Mustangs is a bit slower. All the ads in the early 80s from Mopar raved about how the GLH, Shelby Charger, Daytonas, and even Rampages were able to eat up and spit out the Z28s, Mustang GTs, and Firebirds, most of the performance cars from this era ran in the mid 16s stock with over 2 times the size of motor, but barely anymore hp out of that "V8". I have approximately 160 flywheel hp with about 125hp getting to the ground. The stock clutch can't handle this much power very well and after a few banzai runs the clutch gets warm and slips, the Turbo car clutch and flywheel will make a big difference in my times.  The day I got my GLH it looked like hell, the brakes worked like crap, rust holes in the bottoms of the front doors, had stock Daytona wheels on it, was filthy inside and out, look how far it's come with my bit of backyard bodywork and TLC. The spots where I did the bodywork you can see in person, but not from a few feet away, not too bad for not even owning a garage eh? My GLH has 104,000 miles on it, has blue interior (well it did at least), factory cassette, had cruise, 15" GLH pizza rims with 205/50/15s, and the 110hp HO 2.2 SOHC engine coupled to a 5-spd manual trans.
