Title: classic cars
Post by: 8bit on 10 October 2004, 18:24:15


 Anyone here have a classic car they admire from the old days? I have always liked the Boss Mustang, and there was that cool Shelby Mustang in Gone in 60 Seconds.[8D]

The most beautiful (for me) and the Classical Mustang is the fastback GT 1966 HiPerf (engine code K). :D

1969 is also a nice year for the Corvette (1968 : new generation). :D

@gdonovan,

Engine 350-361-383-400-413-426-440 ?

440 .030 over (.75mm) with forged six-pack slugs, Herb McCandless ported 452 heads with oversize stainless valves, titainiaum retainers and DC "battleship" springs with the inner spring removed, .590 lift Direct Connection camshaft, Max Wedge rocker gear, Weiand tunnel ram with dual Carter 500 cfm AFB's, 2" Hooker Super Comp headers.

Next year I'm hoping to freshen the car up (current paint job is 12 years old) and redo the engine with a single turbocharger and digital fuel injection.
