Had a Trip in a Blue Oval Earlier

[Paul]

Mate of mine from across the yard, has spent the last 4 years building this contraption in his shed. Powered by a Supercharged Big Block Chevy 8! 520bhp, 900bhp with a pulley change to run more boost. To say it is slightly insane is an understatement, its fcuking bonkers!

Walk through his garage, find this(wonder what he's been up to lol);

fantastic, get the engine specs mate, looks like a b+m procharger, like the old 6-71, with twin predator carbs. btw you sure its a bbc? loks like a sbc to me... exhaust ports and all that....

[Paul]

Edit i think it is a sbc actually.

[Sloth]

yeah its an sbc, you can also tell by the water pump outlets...

yeah i didnt think she looked impressed when i turned up in the dayglo dildo!!

[Benn]

Holy funk. That's awesome.

[Graeme]

Looks a well finished car and I know fook all about them, but how does it not bother the owners fitting a engine from a rival manufacturer, surely a ford engine of similar spec would of been more fitting, I'm not having a go at all I really am uneducated in the subject

[Paul]

Chevy 8s are better & cheaper afaik

[Sloth]

yar, 70million sbc's have been made, tuning is unparralelled for em, and tbh fords sb has breathing issues unless you go for alloy heads, and other tweaks.

[mowgli]

and if you have a stonechip in your windscreen or a sunstrip, they can fail you on your mot for not having enough visibility, but you could hit a lot of things cos of that blind spot caused by the filters.... but it is a nice car.

[Sloth]

/\ hush you, you'd hear the charger whine long before you see it... lol

[ben doodar]

Rob, you are a proper car geek lol

Ha ha lmao I was thinking something very similar, you seem to know a bit about everything rob!! That's imense! Looks cool as funk My mates uncle is into his hot rods, at the moment has the cleanest ford pop, it awesome! A v8 mini van, with jag axel, hydraulic shell the guy is awesome!!
