Didn't ask. He showed me a picture taking off at the strip. My dad said like an 11 but it seems like it would be faster than that. He said it has 800ft/lbs of torque. I thought it had way more the way he said he cant get traction. After talking to him I don't think he is as smart as I used to. He is just rich and spends his money on weird things. He said he has a golf kart with a Harley engine on it.

were you the one with the post that everyone said it was impossible and that the engine was too big?

Yeah. I was gong to bring that post back from the dead but I just made a new one. I wanted to put a link to this one on it. I dont see why they claimed it was impossible. Looks fine to me. I have seen bigger hoods on NA muscle cars than what this guy had.

I am honestly surprised there isn't more comments. The way everyone in the other post said it was impossible and now that I have it nobody wants to say they were wrong about it being done. If I see the guy around town sometime I will ask him what it runs. Maybe get a video of it running and doing a big burn out.

I know 2 guys that says its one of the dumbest things they have seen. One of them has a 440 cornet r/t and the other has a camaro about the same year. The way they were talking about it, it wasn't to special. I really want a ride in it. he said it pulls from 30 to 130 pretty damn fast. I don't have any helpful numbers though.
The only number I can give is the 800ft/lbs. I never heard horsepower or 1/4 times.

I take nothing back.

Unfortunate for all the internet tools on this forum, like yourself mr.swag, if you took a look at my post a I never said it was not possible.
I even once said I would be happy to build it if someone paid me. I can't see how that could be taken as impossible.

My disappointment with his 1st post was and still is his total lack of information and basic understanding about what he was posting about.
Other than a few pics, that part hasn't changed.

Shoehorning most of anything into any car isn't the problem if you're willing to completely reconfigure the dash/firewall like that. I think when most people said "impossible" it ment "Impossible to do without completely hacking the car apart"

Todd was right about pretty much everything he said. How I didn't know what I was talking about. I didn't have my facts straight in the first post. I don't really have anything more than pictures now like Todd said.

Honestly, I'm not going to get bitter about swags comment. Did you see how attacking mine was? I can honestly say though, where I said "I call BS on both cars until I see pics" I stand by. The attitude of the Vette owner doesn't seem like that of someone with a TT vette. But he definitely proved me wrong on the Camaro. I'm ok with that. I don't get your whole "internet balls" thing. I would say the same to anyone's face, and I meant what I said.

I just identified with cuz i've been lurking on this forum for since I was 19 (1999), and I remember asking stupid questions. At least JL owns up to it, and I have seen him help tons of people with their questions in the audio forum. And by the way, I work at the jewish home for the aged, where I have cared for some of the very last holocaust survivors, what have you done?
