wow, I leave the thread for one day - and kami explodes into a frenzy of flaming retardation...I think I'm done with this thread, especially since he thinks the GLHS in that article wasn't stock...

If a supercharger is a mod, what is a turbo? If a turbo is a mod, what is EFI? If EFI is a mod, what is a Carb?

If you can walk into a dealer and order it from the factory, it is stock. Simple.

Otherwise some rice-boy is going to start comparing Fox-body four-bangers to civics instead of 5.0's...


You want REAL muscle using little more than a 5.0 engine?

Warning NOT STOCK but VERY FAST!!!

hey kamiam, didn't you say this earlier

just how long have you been racing??? I've been doing it for 20 years on and ioff....when you get more experience than me then go ahead and talk until then STFU

Is this you?

I see...so you've been racing since you were been born? Ah...must be one of those die-hard racers. Interesting, it says in the picture that you're 20 years old. I do believe that is a recent photo of yourself because I doubt that you are any older since you're obviously so immature.

I don't what part of georgia you're from but the street racing scene here is all camaro's and stang's.

If you show up with anything less than nitto drag radials or mickey's, your ass will be handed to you, and folks aren't racing for fun. $$ talks.

Pretty much if you don't have about 500whp, and traction to hook up, you're going to get toasted..

Brothers down from monroe come up, running 2001 SS camaros' with 250 shot of nitrous, dealer tags still on them.. fast ass cars..

If their not on the bottle, they are supercharged.

You don't see many ricers there because most of them aren't 12 second cars..

<< hehe, muscle cars get you no chicks... >>

First, I want no woman I &quot;got&quot; because of my car. On the flip side none of my female friends have ever said &quot;check out that bad ass honda, I love the lowering, and the exhaust is so sweet&quot; On the other hand I have heard, whoa check out the hemi cuda! Listen to that sound, its awesome.

If you want serious serious speed (sub 10 second times) dollar for dollar big engined cars beat little engine cars. I love turbos, but you can only boost so much practically. You can post links to 10 or 9 second hondas but how about telling me how the engine is completely custom as well as teh tranny and rest of the drivetrain? They get rebuilt lik eevery three races? Ohhh the water jacket is stuffed with filler so the block is strong enough thats streetable. The streetable extreme speed comes from a car with a big engine.

I'm psyched for this movie. I love car chases more than anything else in my movies! Sure it may be dumb at parts and I expect it so I won't be surprised, but I think its gonna be fun.

LAUST, SOYBOMB AND EMULEX
thanks for your posts, it's nice hearing from some who actually have a clue as to what their talking about...these kiddies w/ their tinker toys just have no clue...nothing but flamebaiters...they disagree w/ you and call names and when you respond in kind back they then gang up...typical teenagers...again thanks for hearing from someone who knows from what they speak...

and for the kiddies... the technology has enabled your cars to move @ a pretty good speed but they can still not keep up w/ most old detroit iron(as long as it's kept in good condition),IMHO and if you mean what you say you won't try any more flamebaiting and trolling and might gain some credibilty along the way...try it otherwise you'll just be proving my point

Just think - After all the time and thousands of dollars Jon Carmack has spent to get his twin-turbo Ferrari to do ten second quarters or better . . . He could of saved all that trouble and money and just bought a Supra . . .

And I used to think he was a pretty bright guy . . .

Hmm.. let's see what the search engines came up with:

http://www.rodfathers.com/SCHEIBS57PLYMOUTH.html

&quot;The horse power is 2,500 bhp at 7,200 rpm on fuel and the maximum torque, now hold onto your hat dudes, is 2,250 lb-ft at 4,200 rpm.&quot;

http://www.caranddriver.com/xp/Caranddriver/features/2001/April/200104_feature_sport_oldmaster.xml?&amp;page=2

&quot;When Ford lost interest in 1969 in its Top Fuel SOHC engine, and its racing program in general, Pink concentrated on the supercharged nitro 426 Hemi engine and became one of the busiest engine builders in the business, along with south-L.A. rival Keith Black.
The supercharged 500-cubic-inch, 2500-hp nitro-burning engines, made from modified 426 Hemis, were so big in size and power they were dubbed Elephant motors, and if you wanted to win, you had either a Black Elephant or a Pink Elephant.&quot;

http://www.hekimianracing.com/alky.html

500+ Inch Blown Alcohol KB Hemi 3000 HP



Yes, these are pretty much race only engines, but you really can get that amount of power from them with some mods.

I don't know what kind of blocks are used for the 5000+ HP top fuel drag race cars, but I've heard that they were based on the hemi. If I remember correctly, the heads are also based on the old hemi heads. Actually, I'm real sure of the heads because I can see the spark plug wires going to the center of the valve covers, unlike a typical wedge head design.
