Re: American V8's
didn't much like the bangs. Neither did whoever was holding the camera, by the looks of it.

Re: American V8's
I'll have the engine, pass on the car though.
I want a GT40. American muscle engine mated with a uk chassis for handling. Druid

Re: American V8's
Did anyone see the GTO in the related vids? That was insane, and only barely in a good way.

Re: American V8's
Yeah, it had twin superchargers and they were talking about it having nitrous - 1600hp and somewhere in the region of 950 ft/lb of torque. Sounds like a good plaything, on a drag strip

Re: American V8's
You lads would love working in my shop.
Plenty of big block's and hemi's still around. And if it's the sound you like...We'll have trouble keeping you out of our little work truck. Not supercharged but one of the sweetest sounding things you've ever heard. I let people drive it and they come back with this silly grin stuck on their face. LOL
