Didn't wanna derail the horn thread with another off topic reply.
If i ever do another street car, i will hire everything done and sell my tools.
Tom Nelson will be my go to guy. While he is not a brand specific guy, he does seem to really go over the top with Chevrolets and Hemis.

Hostboard will only let me post 3 videos. Gotta post the mustang and Shelby vids for Old Guy as links.

This is perhaps the BEST sounding car i have ever heard, it's just freekin music to my ears. Steve McQueen would approve! : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHSEO7-AnmM Note the emphasis on the "tunnel sound" for Klipsch fans.

Not all vegetables make good leaders.
New and modern is sure neat, but I don't want to spend as much as my house cost to go fast. I also love the underdog.This is what I need in my 1800 only with stock intake and exhaust manifolds and two stock Mitsubishi TD04 13C Volvo turbos mounted in the trunk. 300+ whp in a 2600lb car is enough to scare the crap out of me.

Wanna go fast on a budget?
There's a fella not too far from me that runs 8 seconds in a 13b powered Mazda.
1000+hp from an engine i can lift out of it's mounts with only my hands and no hoist.

Here's a vid that will give you a good idea of the size of the base 13B engine minus the externals, remember, it's half aluminum.

i was going to mention the maxda 13b last night. talk about unlimited torque. get over 8000 rpm and those things take off. i almost bought one. but i already had a dart 340 sport. i was getting 15 mpg with that. as opposed to 8 with the mazda.Originally Posted by bowtie427ss

Looks to me like they need to lash two of those things together and make a quad rotor 26bb.

They put one in a sea-doo, it goes 130mphthey would be a riot in a small hydroplane
Go with the GE T58 gas turbine in the hydroplane. In stock trim for the Bell UH-1(Huey) it weighs in at 315lbs and will make 1250 HP all day long, or until the fuel is gone.

my NOR-TECH buddies put pairs of them in 50' cats 200+someone along the way figured out that if you squirt a little water in the intake it acts a lot like nitrous. but for short bursts only.
