Hey, thanks for all the responses guys, keep 'em coming! This site rocks!
This guy doesn't live in town, but he comes here pretty often because always comes to the home basketball games at my high school because his son plays on the team with me.
90dpscoupe- I would love to get those 3.89s now but I have to wait 3 or 4 more months! Drag radials are probably out of the question because it is a daily driven car in all weather (except bad snow/ice), and I'm on gravel roads/highways every once in awhile.
smooth- My raceweight probably isn't 3700 or 3800 at all, '69 Coupe with a 200 cid and a 3-spd manual weigh 2850. So my car is probably like 3300 maybe? This summer after I do the rear end swap and before I take it to the track I will have it weighed, but I have never taken it to the strip. Closest one is about 45 minutes away.
Fostang- I have good tires, Goodrich Radial T/As, and they are wider than crap, 295/50/15s, but they still just spin wildly, until I hit about 45 mph, then they catch and you get thrown back in your seat. I don't know about 13.5s-13.9s, I was guessing around 14.0-14.5 with the gears. I know when I get those Performer RPM heads (when, I don't know) I will definitely be mid 13s.
Well, if I hear he is coming down I will tell him to be sure he brings the Z and be ready for a run.
