Lol, guys. I'm serious... He took a 327, with a two barrell carb and runs 4.9's in it ... I will show u the video, I will show you pictures ... lol I'm not lying ... Bid you that two barrell is 1000 somethin cfm, and his whole car has been acid dipped ... the car weighs exactly 2200 lbs with my stepdad who weighs 230 lbs. Just show me how to put the links on here and i will show all of u that im not lying ... That's the whole fun of the car because NOONE believes it. They will all crowd around the car, and ask us where the nitrous is at, and they never believe its a two barrell carb, and they all leave with their jaws dropped ... its amazing lol

Anyway, I need some suggestions on a new project. I'm building a 383 stroker, and I wanted to set it up with pretty much Victor JR everything ... I am puttin the 383 in another Camaro i bought for a parts car, but I have just got the body work done and I have a brand new interior on the way. Anyway, if you guys could, give me some suggestions on what you think mite be a neat set-up for the car. Give me some ideas on your ideal street/strip car ... And give it a budget of $5,000 ... thought'd be cool.

Sorry Dude, you are busted. Mathematically it takes 1,095 horsepower to run an eight mile in 4.95 secs this will mile per hour at 139.4 mph in a 2200 pound car. To put this in another perspective, a 2200 pound car with the same 1095 horsepower would post a quarter mile time of 7.72 secs @174.3 mph. That would be a 600 horsepower small block with a 500 horsepower shot of nitrous all in a single stage from launch to chute. You better try your BS somewhere else, a lot of us have been around long enough to know BS when we here it.

Ok, this car has a 326. An old AMC Motor for you guys that don't know what that is. It's a 304 Bored out. Basically what it runs on is AV gas, and It's got interchanged parts from a 390. It has a two barrel carburetor, NO nitrous or any kind of forced induction. And nobody ever said I had a certain amount of horsepower. It was never dynoed. Anyway, this car ran 4.90's, and you can take your calculator and add up all you want but ... correct me if i'm wrong ... i think you were the one that said laughed when i said it was a 326 and didnt believe it ... go look up some old amc motors and maybe you'll learn a thing or two about em

I know that counts for something? lol, I have no clue what kinda' setup he has. I know he's not running pump gas ... but yeah ...
You need to get your POOH BEAR and you Rubber Duckie and head off to bed. Its way too late for you to be up with the Big Boys and Girls.
Come back again when you grow up.

Well, considering the fact that i knew nothing about AMC motors just like you didnt, its not so wrong that i thought it was a 327 chevy. Thats what i figured i'd tell you because you were like "326?" "what's that?" and you guys were like, maybe its a 327, which was logical to think if u had no clue what an AMC motor was. I just got done talkin to my dad about it to let u guys know about. What him and his buddy did was take a 1970 Gremlin, it had the stock original factory 304 in it with the stock 2 barrel carburetor, they bored it out to a 326 and interchanged parts inside it with 390 parts. It's ran with AV gas, and the carburetor was tweaked and puts out around 1000+ cfm. The whole engine was built around the cam ratio, and uh, if i had the specifications of the whole drivetrain, you could put them in your little calculator and then if it tells you im "lying" or "bs'ing" then so be it. And as far as the video goes i dont know how to get them on here, ill get back to you on that.

No way a reworked AMC 2 bbl carb will flow 1,000 CFM. No way 326 cubes will put out the 1,095 horsepower it would take to propel a 2200 pound car to 4.90's in the 1/8 mile which equates to a 7.72 1/4 mile time. I arrived at these numbers with software from Virtual Engine and DeskTop Dyno. You should start using some of this software before you make up these unbelievable and scientifically impossible stories. Best thing you could do now is just slither off and tell your lies elsewhere..........Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!

a dave=iroc z thinks software is the 'dump he has just taken',I am not going to lower
myself and comment on these 'outlandish'
and 'hellacious'LIES,this kid has a problem,
about every word he speaks is a lie,a dream,or something,maybe the laws of physics cease to exist in your town,but I doubt that,if you can build or whomever can build =what you claim'
you have out did every engine builder
in the world and NASA,.with all that power you seem to know how to make,or dad,or whomever,you would be a multi ,as in 'bill gates'league with
dollars and would not be driving an 8 or 7 second piece of crap iroc z on the strip,maybe nasa can use that engine in one of their shuttles,I forgot ,you graduated from..oh I forgot 14 and 16
I was wondering?is that your age ,or the LIES you both average an hour???
i am not going to put myself on your level anymore,guys like you all ruin it
for ALL the legit 'hot rodders' out there
its sad ..........maybe you watched too
reruns of 'fantasy island' let me see,
'the plane,the plane with your 326 2 barrel carb in it....daaaaaaaaaaaa

OK.. as a Geezer I am somewhat guillible, however I believe the
Sunday comic section has more validity, don't read that either.
