Oh oh oh, pick me!! NEVER lol

World's fastest stock bore/stroke 4.6 with a stock cast ford block is faster than ANY LSX powered car with any amount of cubes. John Mehovitz ftw.

why would you use a v8 for drag racing when you have instant torque coming out of the corner?

General Tso · 03-18-2009, 05:00 PM

General Tso · 03-18-2009, 05:05 PM

purty.

another bad-ass color.

sonic blueeeeeeeeeeeeeee

BlackSS · 03-18-2009, 08:55 PM

Damn, that's what I was looking for before getting the SS. sonic blue cobra ftw.

Machina · 03-18-2009, 09:09 PM

The best part is that cobra is actually really really good. Some may say it's an... American M3?

drunkenmagnum · 03-19-2009, 12:29 PM

Somehow my mind still has not changed about Chevys...

blackpearl · 03-19-2009, 01:20 PM

I lol'd. I just cant get over the exterior. The 1993-2002 camaros do nothing for my except some of the GMMG camaros.

drunkenmagnum · 03-19-2009, 02:19 PM

GMMG Camaros were sex. The SS is nice but there is really nothing you can "add" to make the car look any better or different.

Speaking of Camaros looking good....here's an update on my powder coating wheels situation.

Ok, almost pulled an all-nighter last night to get the wheels done in time to get some new tires today. Worked hard, but I'm very pleased. This black chrome comes out just like a nice gunmetal color, and has a nice, shiny and almost chrome shine to it when in the sunlight. Here are the pics!

Center caps are plastic.....working on either matching the color somewhat in paint....or devising a way to heat up the powder without melting the caps. We did a test run with them in a smaller oven and the silver coating broke up and cause the power to be very uneven. I think If I can strip them down to the bare plastic...it will be fine in the oven at 325.

Read the whole thread and you'll understand. I got married, and we bought a house. Gas mileage from cam and stall converter, car payment, and insurance was too much to go along with the house. Was looking for something economical as wife got a job an hour from home. After two weeks she got transferred locally, and we no longer needed the economical ride as much as before. Sold the SS for 11,700 and found the Z28 for $5400. Had a couple grand left over that went towards a few needed things for the car, and some for the house. Now I don't have a car payment, get 18mpg (29 on highway trips), and pay half as much on insurance. And oh yeah....was missing having a manual and was contemplating the swap on the SS, but this car is a 6speed anyways.

blackpearl · 03-19-2009, 05:06 PM

Im still considering an SS. My fucking prelude is trowing more CELs than ever and I like the powa of the SS lol. A cowl hood looks good on the SS. Only a MT SS thank you. Recomendations? Its Mach 1 or SS. Battle of titans.

Machina · 03-19-2009, 05:45 PM

The SS has a really big front overhang. What's that about? Could you imagine how much sexier it'd look if the front wheels were bumped forward four inches?

drunkenmagnum · 03-19-2009, 09:30 PM

Just drive a SS....
