  1. Exactly. There are things now like more than 2 valves per cylinder, overhead camshafts... Even my diesel is DOHC. The LS 4.8 I cited doesn't have 2...but it will still rape any Grand National motor. Not having a completely modern Fuel Injection system is retarded if you are building a car. Obvious exception is old shit with a carb, but once you go injected use a modern piece. The GN used port injection, so the fuel system is virtually the same. He would have to go stand-alone or adapt (which would be simple given tbe Camaro already has the same system basics) the existing system. Basically a pump/injector/regulator swap, and a good tune. Complete drop in LS with harness and ECU are dirt cheap. The dumb thing here is that in a Turbo motor it isn't the motor that makes power but the Turbo. Comes down to what will run the Turbo more efficientliy and this is where the LS will destroy things. Doesn't suck that if you pop a stock motor you can pick one up for $200. Plenty of guys running stock bottom ends near 1000hp with them. Good luck with a GN motor doing that. That alone tells the whole story.

  3. Hell yeah ! Is that huge new cooler in front for the tranny ? The cooler is the radiator for the supercharger. I may have to pull it off later and add another tranny cooler.
  4. Doh What I meant to post
  5. Umm, no. There is no "sound of bandpass's. If for some odd reason you want to mimic the shortened frequency response that is SUPER easy with even very simple electronics. The other aspect of your statement that is obvious already. If you knew then you'd realize what you were feeling wasn't right. Since you don't that means if you try to design a 6th order bp you'll end up with something that will sound way worse than a standard box. The approach is also strange. Build a normal ported box. It is easy, it works and best of all you can learn instead of just do. Once built, listen to it. Then decide what you want to make better, describe it on here and ask for help. If you go that route you'll know by the time you buy your next sub what is actually best for you instead of going by what someone else likes or worse yet thinks they like.
  6. You do suck
  7. On the job learning ftmfw.
  8. And that is about as original as running an Fi BTL in SPL the year they came out.
  9. Why would I build what every one else does? What is the fun in that?Are you trying to show your stupidity? Let me see, spend way more, have way less and have it be worth less. Sounds like a GREAT IDEA!! You should re-ask your own question to yourself. Is everyone else an idiot or why did they make that choice? What is the fun in being different when it costs me money and has no benefit? Benefit will be originality&bragging rights plus mid-life crisis will help me get a mid 20's slutter-gutter..G-force will make me feel like I got ballz like grapefruits...And I give two shits about the money,,If you want to brag about being an idiot then by all means. Can't say I understand either the bragging or the idiotness.
  10. he needs more than a bud
  11. Was definitely the most wacky car I've ever stood next to
  12. If you want to be different, but a green chrome lamborghini
  13. de de de
  14. Can't, stockers are shot. Winter shoes will be on another set of wheels. Even without the salt, chromed aluminum is not a forever material. That bugs me. You won't own it long enough to matter.Found my motor yet? http://m.ebay.com/itm/151670036082?nav=SEARCHNice but no V8 this time..Maybe next build,Way to throw away cash.Monies isn't everything can't take it with you...But legends you can The only ones that notice will laugh and think you are retarded. The rest won't notice. Being a legend of idiocy isn't how I'd like to leave my name.
  15. Are you planing on building the lower half?we will see if I still have traction, if so then yes as I'll want a smaller pulley. Outside of some ARP shit and some pistons it is all built to make 900hp Then we go cruising for broads and racing dudes on hot import nights. I am just bummed that Summer Nats is moving to Milwaukee this year. Was going to go autocross it, lol.Maybe when I get done with my Camanational we will be able to star in the next fast and the furious..Fast and Furious 17: Mongoloids Gone Wild

  24. In reality a $200 4.8 with 100k miles add turbo will RAPE your "national idea". It isn't 1980 don't try to make it come back
