Needs the back wheels tucked up in the fenders badly, looks kinda funny to me all jacked up in the back.

looks like it could be fun!!!! But the side pipes are GAY!!!!!!! :-X Like you said its probably never seen the track. There is a guy in town that has a old stingray running around that has a 1071 blower sticking out the hood thats just tits, if I see him at the next car show I will take some pics and post it in this thred. The car only has like 32,000 oraginal miles on it. To bad he hacked the ---- out of the hood.

It's neat. But I would be more impressed if he flux cored a pair of crusty 14b's to the stock manifolds...hey, this is HMT after all.

Dos 650cfm Carbs=1300cfm? 1300cfm > 650cfm Mustang? I think a pair of 650's can outflow a single one, and if you are making 200hp on your Mustang, maybe you need to get a smaller carb..

Boost, stickers?

gearbanger67 06-11-2007 09:48 PM

Re: Badass Vette I saw today at a local car show
 
dont need smaller carb just jet it an squirt it down

We are, he did, but it was still cool....Matt and Debbie Hayes.....tubbed olds quad 4 car.....why do i remember this ----.....i need a life....Alot of those pro street cars have the same look as this vette, doesn,t mean ----, blower could be slowed rigth down and make ---- all power, a few years ago hot rod did a comparison test with a few cars, one of them was a 6-71 small block in a 34ford, the car made like 245hp at the ground, they went on to say that with some more boost, and a better tune it could have been an animal, but regardless it wasnt, in the same article they had a 2.3 pinto on like 18pnds with a C4 and it was badass.....all im saying is that looks mean absolutly ---- all, yah, it may be fast as balls, or it may be a complete slug....tires and a blower mean nothing......

Re: Badass Vette I saw today at a local car show
 
Got a few friends with blown sbc, they can be lame to insane. If it is just a weiand or or bds from summit sitting on a stock 350 more than likely it would be lucky to run 11's. From the looks of the pully the blower is being under driven quite a bit also.
Now if it is on a built bottom, good heads and a preps blowers with teflon strips and stuff it could be very fast. But I doubt it. From the way it sits looks a lot like a poser. You see a lot of nice looking, slow cars at car shows/cruises.

Strange. I hardly ever see someone post a badass looking boosted Honda and have people call it slow and say it's probably not running much boost and it sucks and the slicks on it are just for looks and blah blah blah. :S

No way! It's slow and it sucks! Those carbs are fake and those MONSTER TIRES are just for looks! That blower doesn't even do anything! :S :1
