unless it is a destroked big block... A 350 chevy is a small block.

Do two tone seats and dash painted like exterior add much HP? I was wondering if it was worth the expense? How bout those wings? they add much hp at freeway speeds? Elky has room for a really really really big wing if it does.

He's probably got the 350 TPI motor, definitely a small block.

I fill my car up once a month. It goes vroom, sometimes, and it runs nice and silent.

Your pedal car doesn't count Froggy.

Oh yeah Laz
The wing will add, 50Hp and 75 torque!

If you get the deluxe ajustable aluminum one, it adds 10% more!

You could toss that crappy cheby V8 and out in one of the super cool toyota V8s from a Tundra!

Laz that can not be true!!!

The Japanese do everything better then we do, they would never copy a US motor!!

HonDAH makes the best motors EvAr!!! VTEC baby!!

I tried putting an aluminum wing on my Yukon, but it kept getting knocked off on over passes

I am trying to catch a hundalovingfish

The best bait is to talk smack about american cars, they will chime in and I can hook them!

I personaly will NEVER own a hondah or a toyota.....

Hondahs are ok cars, Toyotas in my personal exsperiance are ****, over rated crap. You paying twice what the car is worth for the toyota stickers.

Ah ricers! They crack me up every time. I pulled up next to one last summer at the light. He had the fart can, the stickers, etc., so I asked him if his car was fast. He actually said no(and he wasn't lying as I smoked him in my Grand Prix GTP.
I used to have a 65' Impala SS 409 and that thing was all about torque. Nothing beats the sound of a big block with 400+ hp.

Um yeah because the NASCAR rules don't allow anything but small block clones and live rear axles and other stone age technology. If they actually allowed modern race cars in NASCAR, Toyota would eat the big 3 for breakfast.

Man the 409 was awsome!

I grew up hearing about how my dad and his budy while they where in the navy cruised his 63 409 Impala, it was a dual qaud X race car! lol.

Rare now a days, the low rider crowd has grabbed up all the cool old full size cars and ruined them.

GtoRA2 · « **Reply #44 on:** February 26, 2004, 04:10:32 PM »

Why would you need indipendent reas suspension on a car that drives in a big oval all the time?

Bah toyotas still suck, just ask my mom how good her camery has been. Ask about all the letters to toyota corperate to get the to honor their ****ty waranty..
