  1. how much does that matter cost to buikld?
  2. I know where I can get a semi clean 240 chassis......
  3. I just tuned a turbo silverado 4.8 and that truck was a handful. Gbody prolly easier to keep planted
  4. What's the cheapest route to owning a LSX powered vehicle? I'm just curious what other peoples thoughts where. Motor swaps into other platforms acceptable as long as it does not prevent turbochargering. I think a 99 fbody is prolly one of the cheaper routes or maybe a lsx swapped into a older fbody chassis or even a gbody. ... I would love a LSX powered 85 Monte SS Then how would you get to 500+whp? Turbocharging + e85
  5. goto the dollar store and grab some of the metal wrapping paper and use it backwards.
  6. I used an app on my iphone . with Launch control it told me 3.2 seconds with out 4.0
  7. that Cyclone is HOT! I hope to some day restore a car.
  8. Do you have clearance currently? If so TS?

    270 record

    I've never timed myself but I will say back in the day I had many high speed spurts from East side hooters to the west side.... We used to roll race the shit out of 270 back in the day.
  10. My biggest ball python was between 4 and 5 feet. Thats not a large python...
  11. It depends on the type of cancer. Its always best to just check donor and let the OPO decide.
  12. Where's the car located? I might be able to help.
  13. Imagine being able to tell that story to your grand kids. So I shot OBL
  14. Is this what santa does when your not on his nice list?
  15. Wrong ! By law if its on your official record then they can take your organs no matter what the family wants if your over 18, Also the ER doc things is wrong. The ER doc has no clue if your a donor until the opo is contacted. Also the dr's can't decide where your organs go the OPO goes by the national waiting list.
  16. totally not true. It's not until your Brain dead or Cardiac dead that they contact the Organ Transplant place. At which point they check your status and then see if your a canidate to save a life or improve a life.
  17. Thats totaly false. They have no clue if your a donor until after your dead because your drivers license is not 100% accurate because you can login and change your stance online to not a donor. That was one of the things they stressed tonight. It's not until after your die that they find out when they contact the OPO. Sadly TV has put this into our heads.
  18. Buzz's car was a pleasure to work on. If I keep this trend up I'm going to tune more GM's this month then subarus Gasp .... For anyone who's interested the IPS dyno is calibrated exactly to mustangs specs and we see between a 5-8% difference in RWD/FWD and a 12-15% difference in awd. The mustang dyno is truly a heart breaker. I've had so many subbie clients go why is my dyno so low to later call me back and tell me how fast there car feels. The dyno is tuning tool and I must say I prefer the Loaded dyno over our dynojet anyday of the week.
