Even if it did it’s still making HUGE power and of course won’t be as reliable as a stock zo6

Car moves out. Thats cool.

btw 3100lbs is damn light, and aerodynamic like a mofo. Alot working for it from a platform standpoint to start.

Specs on trans? I need some 4l80 ideas myself.

8 Second street car is impressive but I’d hardly call it huge power, enough that it shouldn’t be reliable at least. It’s got a 432 Cubic inch engine(7.0L). 930whp through an auto, so lets call it ~1100whp equivalent through a manual. My bone stock 20 year old engine with 115k miles designed for half the power it’s producing is being pushed as hard as that motor. Personally I would expect reliability from it.

Hasn’t blown up in years…

Car easily ran 8’s@162, with a shit ton left in it… Credit is deserved…

Anyone’s shit can blow up. There’s a few guys on here that have had shit blown up in Florida by a shop that have never even talked about it…

True. It’s all relative, and to me it’s both impressive and HUGE power. I guess I was just trying to say that shit happens when you get that aggressive with a cars capabilities and power levels.

trans has alot to do with it.

thats a fast car.

auto is the way to go with a turbo car, no question. whyd it take him so long to get them to put an auto in it?

That motor will last… I was there when tuned and that thing has no timing in it and a/f is dead nuts on… Car runs perfect there is no place to take any credit outta it

Yes a car making the power it does of course a auto is the way to go but with street car in mind howard put a over drive in it which is a heavy ass trans plus with twin turbos on top of it car def weighs more then 3100 lbs…

He coulda kept is street n made it stupid fast with a glide but then what fun is it as a car… I will guarentee cars goes a 50 or better n will be driven to cruise night no issues

thats exactly what i had in mind when i bought my car. thats the whole reason i built it the way i did. reliable fast full weight street car.

its nice to see a sorted out auto turbo car. it just works so well. its THE BEST way to have a street car that runs hard and runs quick ets. and it just so happens to have really good aero, a light curbweight for a car like that, and a huge motor.

id be suprised if it ran any slower than it did. how much boost and timing did it have in it?
