It's a Speedway Motors 27 Track T roadster kit.
With a Chevy strait six, webers or hilborn's. A finned aluminum box built around the hilborns W/a turbo setup. Mated to a T-5 manual out of an S-10. Front disk brakes W/replica Buick finned drum 'brake covers' Rear would be a GM 10 bolt (again out of an S-10 fitted with 3.73's and a T2R ( (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ). And adapt the G-body aluminum drums to it. Build a simple interior, and some Hildebrandt wheels with repo cheater slicks on the back.... I just may sell my Comet so I can buy one of these!! (all of this spawned from simply looking through my fathers Speedway Motors catalog. They are the nations oldest speed shop you know (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) |

Maybe but this is an understressed crate motor. What does it cost to build a stroker that makes 525 RWHP?? (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Not only that, but smog legal and probably gets 30mph on the highway depending on trans and gear. Idles smooth and runs cool in traffic? Probably turns more than 1g on the skidpad, probably stops MUCH quicker....
I'm still drooling... (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
