WET SHOT NAWSS DAMNNN! Its ok, the dry kit still propelled me almost 2 seconds faster ;D
And yes, Adam+Skateboard=Death
Give me a couple years jeez, i’m 17 brah…give me time to throw an LSx or big block in my shit and strap it with NAWZ, you’ll be pwned… BBC > SBF :haha ;D
Ill be waitin for it bud :mwahaha I love killin BBC’s
I don’t see you coasting by the purple 555 F2 Camaro or the BBC procharged S10 when Eddie still had it :nono :tong
you havent seen me race them…
I can vision it. I get $50 from you if you lose to the 555 F2, you get $50 from me if you win.
Im talkin bout eddy, i know an F2 555ci with 33X15X15’s is a little outta my league, im stubborn but will pre admit defeat to that one lol
Not fair, give him a 300 shot…then race him. ;D :haha
he said hes got a 496 now… old engine was a 555. as if that helps you much
Original engine was a 540 Merlin, there was a different motor with the blower setup. And why would i give him a 300 shot? Hes already “got” me by 150+ci, huge tires etc, he “should” kill me. Plus more than likely, ill only be running a 75 jet this year…
no eddie still has the 540, the camaro he said hes got a 496 in it now with the blower, and his old setup was a 555
right, i typed it bass ackwards, ^fixed
I rep THaT sHiT Hard To, buT now THaT iTs HoT ouT I’Ve been wearing sHorTs (sorry for THe Typin, some keys only work wHen Holding down THe “sHifT” key :headbang
ahh then in that case you are right lol you see the 429 In production trim the engine was choked down to only 375hp to 370@ 4600 to 5200 Torque was in the range of 450 to 455 @ 3400 (depending on the source you read on the net), by a mild hydraulic cam, a tiny carb, and smog pump, but the 429 thrived on high revs – bad news for standing-start acceleration even with all that torque. Moreover, the initial batch had incorrect valve springs and stopped winding at 4500 rpm, not the correct 6000. The engine itself had tons of potential that went un noticed and it wasn’t until its disservice in the 90s that ford and car enthusiasts realized this and actually embraced it. The 429/460 or 385-series block was produced three basic ways: standard, Cobra Jet, and Boss 429. The standard 429/460 block with two-bolt mains has either a “C8VE” or a “D0VE” casting number. So does the four-bolt main 429 Cobra Jet block. You must remove the oil pan to determine which block you’ve found. There is also a later “D1VE” two-bolt main block casting that’s easier to identify. The nice thing about this block is interchangeability. It can be a 429 or a 460 depending on which crankshaft is used. What’s more, it can be stroked to more than 550ci. there were 6 diffrent vareations of this motor that include the cobrajet and super cobrajet versions. after 1973 the motor went on to service in luxury cars (because of how quiet it was) and trucks (because of how much torque it provided) until the mid to late 90s but ford saved the performance for the nascar version of that motor and not the street version. Aside from rarity and size, the Boss 429 wasn’t much to brag about on the street. Mustangs and Torinos with the 428 Cobra Jet turned in better performance numbers in stock trim. And because so few Boss 429s were produced, they never developed a mainstream following on Main Street… to this day the boss 429 remains one of the most sought after and coveted mustangs ever… but in all honesty I’d much rather have a 71 boss 351 only 1,806 were made (1000 more than the 69 boss 429) and it was one year only as opposed to the two year run the 429 had… and unfortunately for ford 1969 was sort of a dark year for track racing for them…it wasn’t until 1970 with the boss 302 small block mustangs that ford took back the track with parnelli Jones at the helm. No harm in getting the 429 and 427 confused lol try being a customer wanting to buy a mustang in 1969 was like having to choose what contestant of miss universe you would like to have sex with lol.
