------------------ |
you beat a guy with 450 odd horses, who put the wheels in the air on launch? and what all do you have?
|
Don't worry, the odds of a "real" 70 LS6 Chevelle pulling beside you has to be a 1000 to 1. It was probably a "350" SS. We can always dream!
|
What kind of mustang do you have? You must have some serious horsepower to pull away from an LS6 454 no matter what he has done to it! I would also like to know what parts you have on your ride!
------------------ |
it could have been an ls5 chevelle the 454 with only 360 hp........either way they have a lot of wheelspin....the LS6 is my dream car and always will be.....red with the black racing stripes

Oh yes I love hearing about chevelle's getting beat. I've ate up two up to now one with a 396 the other with a built 350. The 396 was a joke beat him by a lot and shifting at around 4 grand and he had a jump of about a car length. The other one has been the best race I have ever had but I still hadn't changed my rear end, ported my heads, had a set of 205 70 14 tires, and I had a 500 cfm carb. He has quite a bit of stuff not sure how much stuff but it's a healthy stroked engine from what I heard but not too sure because I heard it was actually a destroked engine from another guy kinda wierd. But anyways we started off and I started slowly pulling at the start where I got about half a car length ahead of him and stayed there all through the race you guys should have seen his face after all the thumbs down he had given me and when I asked him what he had he just said don't worry poor guy probably told his dad to fix it for him because he lost. Yup chevelles are nice to finish. Now I'm going after another guys who has a 350 aluminum headed with rpm edelbrock stuff and a 4 speed. For that one I'm for sure having the bottle on. Then there is another green one who reved at me and what made me more pissed off was that I couldn't do a thing because I had my mother and grandmother in the car. I saw him today but wasn't in my car but both of their days will come.

Put it this way guys if it wasnt an LS6 it was a damn good imposter had ls6 454 tags all over it!! and its kinda hard to getresect around here and if he was bein that much of a poser i dont think hed have a croud of street racers around him I could be wrong

I was comin' home one say on a completely straight two lane road.iwas doin' about 65 when a black chevelle pulled up behind me.i don't know wat year or anything(i know nothing about chevys http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/smile.gif he went by and i heard him get on it so i threw it into 4th and pulled right up on his bumper.we stayed like that till about 130 then i blew by him.i don't know if he gave up or wat but i kept goin' and got up to 150. fastest i've ever gone in that thing.not bad for nearly completely stock http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/biggrin.gif

Justjoe....completely stock and you were able to blow by a chevelle and take it up to 150? You sure he knew you two were racing, and your tach wasn't off? http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/biggrin.gif My guess is you had a run in with a stock 350 Chevelle.

I'll never forget the best race ever, when Skyman took on that McLaren. They were neck and neck until Skyler's howling monkey kicked in and he tore past the McLaren like it was standing still, until he hit 200 mph and then he had to shut it down http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/biggrin.gif ......that was Skyler's race, wasn't it?

Wasn't the best race some guy with a Solara and a Formula 1 car (I think Schumacher and his Ferrari). If I remember correctly the Solara won by 10 car lengths or so. Wasn't that on this board??????

Hey Hungry4GMs - I notice you're getting flamed pretty regularly on this board. If you want some respect, lose the attitude and the BS and try to be a part of the Mustangworks community. And see those dots at the end of the sentences? They're called periods. Makes it easier to read. |
Yeah, I had reworked my N20 to spray into the *** of the howling monkey. So at 150 I nailed the n20, froze my monkeys butt and he really started howling. haha...

Yeah...Thats nothing, I beat the Hubble Space Telescope in a race. It swung down from its orbit one night while I was sitting at a stop light.
I sprayed my H2O and took it by two shuttle lengths by the time I hit 15,000 miles per hour. It was awesome.

Hungery4GM's what does your mustang look like. The reason I was asking is because I live just off of N. Oak I always see alot nice Stangs. I'd like to meet up with you and check out your Stang.
|
wellt he 1970 chevelle ss ls6 WAS AND IS FAST stcok or not, it was the first year that chevy could put a power plant bigger then 400 cid in their cars for enviromental reasons and they did a great job!! 450 hp and a 13 second QM in a car that weighs more then a small trailer home, gotta love it!! But i dont get it i post a great kill like that and you giys say BS but its okay i understand you have never seen my car or what it has but i know the truth :-)
|
Yes, yes, of course, you're right......take another hit of yo mamma's crack pipe Hungry4GayMen (sorry if all the punctuation in my posts causes your eyes to glaze over). Noone's saying that a Stang can't beat a Chevelle, we're just saying that your run on sentences make no sense, are just plain hard to read, and cause birth defects in fetus', due to your apparent illiteracy. We know - you're a Marine, a Kung-** expert, can kick all our a$$es, we're all gay, you can beat all our cars while hopped up on crack drving in reverse, you're one of the original teenage mutant ninja turtles....we know, you're the best. You're what they call an egomaniac and have extreme illusions of grandeure.
Withamc is right, if you lost the attitude, you'd be accepted on this site and woldn't be thought of as such a jacka$$. We're all cool here, interested in our Stangs, we like to help, get help and trade cool race stories, and none of us get every word spelled correcty every time. We have a lot to learn, so please teach us....but for the love of God, complete your hooked on phonics course first. ------------------ '90 LX 5.0; 12K original miles (no sh*&); 3.55 gears; pulleys;Edelbrock Performer Heads; BBK shorties; MSD 6AL box w/ blaster 2 coil; Motorsport E303 cam; Pro-M 75mm MAF; BBK 70mm TB; Eibach spring kit; Southside welded subs; K&N cone filter charger; Hurst shifter; fiberglass turbo hood; A/C-less; rear seat-less; cat-less; 2 chamber Flos; Corbeau racing seats (fronts); 30# injectors; JMS Chip; 190 lb fp; TFS track heat Intake (12.299 @ 113) |
You cant miss it its the black cobra that you can feel when you drive by it has a sticker of a cobra wrapped around the chevy bowtie strikin it and it says the heartbeat stops here it'll say "VNIMS" on the license plate
|
WOW guys, take it easy on Mr. Marine here http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/biggrin.gif The story sounds believable, except for the wheels lifting off the ground part. Those old 454 Chevelles werent that fast stock. I have personaly beaten a stock one and Im not fast. It probably wasnt an LS6 but nonetheless.
Excuse my ignorance but WTF is a howling monkey? |
FOR THE 10TH TIME HE DIDNT LIFT THEM ALL THE WAY UP BUT WHEN YOU HAVE 450 HP ABOUT 470 PF OF TORQUE YOUR FRONT END IS GONNA COME UP A BIT!! and about the howling monkey thing im with ya andi have no idea i think its a nos thing
|
your funny Slack a$$ lx, umm ive never even seen crack in person my mom is a defense attourney at some fancy law office i dont think she smokes crack she might, shes been gettin kinda wierd in her old age :-), but if she did rest assured that i wouldnt be hittin it with her thanks, i mean JESUS come on i smoke weed that aint half as bad as when fuks like you go to the bar or to the ballgame and have 5 or 6 beers ya know then you drive home im nowhere near that bad so please dont judge me!! its just weed i know you all arnt gonna understand that but im not a fukin druggy burnout i have a career and i have a son and women i love and i would never do anything to put thier lives or the lives of another child or anyone for that fact in danger, i believe when im high i drive better makes you a little more cautious more paranoid and more alert to what is going on around you. but like i said thats just me
|
Bada$$lx - That was some absolutely funny **** .
Hungry4GM - Smokin weed makes you MORE ALERT???? Ya sure about that? Anyway, posts some pics of your monster mobile.

Ok, I read your profile. How are you running 10's with the stock fuel pump? Are you on slicks because your only traction device listed is "skillz" You have a 5.0 in a 97 Cobra? What happened to the original 4 cam 4.6?

i tossed it and got a 5.0. its not a stock feul pump but thats one of the few mods i didnt do to the car so i dont know what the brand is. and that was my best run it was about 70 trackdegrees and i had full slicks, well worn out street strips.
|
So why'd you toss the 4.6? The 4 cam is a decent platform. (Im partial to the 5.0)

Did you do the cam & head change? If so how do you like the heads? Also, what's the specs on the cam.
|
Man!! ive changed the heads on this thig twice lmao. i had the gt40's on it now I've got the Edlebrock Street Cylinder Heads =, they seem to work a better for me i ran a couple hundreths faster with these heads on, and yes i did change the cam its a lunati 288 duration, 488 gross vaulve lift, and 110 lobe seperation

What rockers & pushrods are you using?
|
just curious hungry4gms, I looked at your readers ride info, and it just doesn't make sense. You say that you just bought the supercharger for your "5.0" and just installed it. Why does your pictures show what appears to be a 4.6l dohc motor with a supercharger? I also can't see your Monster tach and boost gauge. Where's the Cobra R rims? It appears that you spent alot of money on the 4.6 dohc before changing to the "5.0" setup if these are just old pictures or from what other people on this board are also saying, "you're full of it!" Please prove us all wrong, or just admit that you have a pretty much stock 97 cobra with a Vortech. Even if that is the case, I don't think it is something to be ashamed of. It appears to be a very nice car!
|
i had the supercharger on both engines and the 4.6 only ran a high 12 with 13# so i junked it well i didnt junk it i sold it to the speed shop i bnought the 5.0 from. and that picture isnt of a '97 4.6 its of a 5.0 before i got the trick flow efi for it, and the interior pic was BONE STOCK you might even see the old 5 speed shifter in there thats why the cluster isnt in the pic
|
So you are basically telling all of us that the picture of your car with the open hood on your reader's ride page is actually a 5.0 motor, complete with 4.6l dohc cobra intake and cylinder heads and reverse rotation Vortech supercharger? How did you manage to pull that one off?
|
So what you are saying is that the picture of your motor in your reader's ride section is actually a 5.0? Complete with reverse rotating supercharger, center mounted alternator, dohc heads, cobra intake, etc, etc, etc? How did you pull that one off??
|
Sorry! I didn't mean to post the same thing 2 times.
|
That engine looks amazingly like the 4.6 in my wife's 1998 GT (minus the 'charger). Oh, and somebody stole your distributor too!
|
Hmmmmm.... You've got a Cobra, and with 13lbs of boost on a DOHC 4.6L you managed a best of high 12's/low 13's?
I hate to tell you, but most people pull that off with gears. If you couldn't get that Cobra deep into the 11's with 13psi, something is seriously wrong. |
Quote:
WOW, if that is true, that is quite the disquise for a 5.0, I must admit. If cubic inches was your reason for the swap why didn't you go with a stroker? If your adding all new internals anyway I don't think it would have cost much more to go to a 347. ------------------ '92 GT conv. TFS heads, GT40, Powerdyne 9#, AOD, 3.73 My Mustang Page |
Why in the name of God would anyone drop a 5.0 into a 97 Cobra!!!!
For the money you spent and the time you invested you could've just bought a nice 94 or 95 Cobra that already had a 5.0L. Or why not just work with the 4.6! It does have lots of potential! Like 11s with a blower and gears... This doesn't make any sense, to me at least. Like was mentioned, why would you swap a 5.0 in if your just looking for cubes? Would a 351W be any harder?

I didn't know that they did. I also didn't know that they sold separate tailpipes.

well a lil of the subject......my friends dad has a 1970 chevelle 454 ss........ but even though i am not a chevy man it is a shame on home this car is treated. It should be out on the street or strip running.instead it is his back yard with a pool cover on top of it with bird sh*t all over it.
