Bingo, we have a winner...
I am experiencing something similar with my Crazy Z/28. With the new electronic Ignition, the power band is smoother and not as if someone snapped a rubber band... The Head Mechanic was explaining the same thing. I did all mods for steering, suspension, braking and general restoration, and added maybe 40 HP to 450Hp or so, but it felt slower...It is not..I also dropped over a hundred pounds on tubular aarms, aluminum parts, ectt...
Similar the 370Z has that new tranny and will not feel as "peaky", or the snap of the rubber band..
It will take getting used to . I kinda like that pin your eyeballs to the back of your head and see if your man enough to keep your foot to the floor feeling...
But smooth is good.. If I ever drive it...
