Ted slapped together a Trailer Park 283 SBC
I gotta beat RandomStrike to it. <cough> 383 SBC <cough>

That exhaust size must be FREAKIN huge for that thing not to spool, holy ----. Cool stuff man, please make sure he comes to the next HMT BBQ

I love it...

I was thinking about upgrading to a different platform like a WS6 Trans am.... I looked in one of their engine bays and they had no room.

That idea you did with the exhaust gives me something to think of...its a possibility if I ever do such a thing.

some kid in y highschool has a montecarlo with a 402 in it with dual t4's.

lets just say it broke a dyno. and lets just say the dyno read a max of 800 hp.
