Now you see, all the Fords would lose then, cause they have little horsepower compared to the compition. Thats because they make all the torque down low, where you want it in a truck. n stuff.

Actually SHartley, a Shortbed 1995 regular cab 4x2 with a 351 is pretty fast, not by sports car means of course, but it'll take quite a few economy cars and boats on wheels. Now put a 460 in that.... ohhh boy

To add on to shartley's post, it also depends where that horspower is made. My truck is only making 145hp, but thats made at 3200, and the torque peak is at 2000, but its pretty much flat at 265lbs from about 1700-2100 rpm.

Now take a I4 honda engine with 145hp and put it in my truck, and try and get it to move

Me and my friend Joel's T/A.

A Pontiac T/A Has always been a dream car for me... Kill that guy and ship his car to me :-D

There is actually one on sale a few blocks from my house
'79 Pontiac Firebird T/A
Primer no paint yet.
Missing the engine.
$1,000 I want it, but I have no idea how to fix it up :-/


Oh yeah, and Im poor...

[obsolete898]

Actually he has to sell his. He's 19 and the insurance companies are trying to kill him. He's called every company and they all want 600 a month. He even has a clean driving record.

Funny ending to the story. He's gonna sell it and a crotch rocket. The insurance on that will be 600 a year.

Hell yeah it's manual, F1 is for pussies (sorry if I offended anyone but it's true, even the guys in the Ferrari Club say it) and I can smoke hondas with my ride in 1st gear.

yeah, i cant see how anyone could enjoy driving a car like that if it wasnt manual.

I know him personally that's why I asked. He's a great car guy to get together with and talk car babble. His GN is stupid fast. Its just insane.

When I first met him, I knew he ran a business for the buick guys, but I never really realized how popular he was until I did a google search on his name...haha!!
