    Default New project........

    Hmmm with the RX-7 a day or so away from being completely done, I am thinking about getting back into the whole straight line game.
    I have been thinking of building another black 1g AWD
    untill we got this nice 88 Starion in today with a bad motor........hmmmmm


    can anybody say LS-7 powered.............


    for those of you that don't know the LS-7 is GM's (yea I know its domestic) new 427ci SMALL block V8 that is going into the 06 Z06 Vette
    bone stock it makes 500hp on pump gas...put a cam, heads and long tubes and you are making close to 700!!!!!!!!!
    Hmm low 9's on pump gas with A/C NICE!!!!!!!!
    Now all I have to do is wait till the new vetts come out. and someone wrecks one.

    The vette is out isn't it? I went to the dealer to look at their supercharged Cobalt for the wife and they had one sittin there with a SOLD tag on it that said deliver to blah blah for whoever bought it. Didn't have any ZO6 badges, maybe the Z06 isn't out yet?

    The LS-7... wow, that would rock... yanno those things use titanium rods from the factory?! They definately did this motor right... put a big turbocharger (off a cummings?) and you could probably run close to 1000 ponies on pump :twisted:

    I heard GM allready has 20.000 of them sitting in a factory somewhere in Detroit...... :shock:
    You could pick up a totalted one at the auction for around $8,000 when they come out..........or "borrow" one
