Well there's that one CRX with the huge drag slicks on the back and the big block sticking out the front. There's actually a video of it rolling out the park.
Are you talking about that show car in the Netherlands with the big Hemi and huge blower sticking up through the hood?

[QUOTE=__redruM,Sep 20 2006, 06:59 AM] Saw a V8 in an old 280Z last weekend.

That was a question, not a statement. So what is the first choice in engine upgrade for these torque addicts? (Not a retorical question by the way, I really am curious.)

Though there is a reason we measure performance in horse power and not torque. Those 9000 rpms are what makes that low torque number very useful.

You can afford an LS1 engine, but you can't afford to buy a digital camera and post pics?

Actually, it did. Block just came back from being honed. Should be a 5.2L now. You didn't read this from me, though.
