iirc Ida Automotive developed a multi-injector setup when they put one on their "3D" 41 Willys:



The thing had 16 injectors or something crazy like that, but I hardly recall another use of a LT5 engine. Mind you, that car was built 10 years ago or so.


There are some 600+whpN/A LT5s out there. Awesome engine. So damn smooth. I've never seen it done but supposedly you can balance a nickel on it's side atop the engine at idle.

Looks like the guy who built this car still runs it real hard. Pretty awesome that just an updated rack/pinion, a set of shocks/coils, fiberglass leaf springs and otherwise stock suspension gave this car a .99g rating on the skidpad.

Okay, nvm.. my screen was dimmed.. I thought it was black and white.

If the second colour was a dark brown, it would make the car.

Not. Solid color, or a well defined two tone. That thing's random as hell. "Eh lets put a scallop in here because... you know... in here. Yup".
 
Is that a bagged and DUB'd Fox Body? :crazy:

Out of all of those, the Lincoln is the best. The Edsel is a hopeless car.

You know, for a car that honored Henry Ford's son, it's a pretty ugly car... in fact horrendous.

Like one of those horror film scenes where a victim has a gaping vertical slit down the middle of their face.

Saw one exactly like the one above in Panama and at first I thought it was a hack job. It looked like a Dodge Challenger that had its ass chopped off.

I've never been so happy to be wrong.
 
My dad had one with a 290 in it. He wound up angering my grandparents because he straight piped it and it wound up making all the windows rattle any time he started it in the driveway.
 
Since it is a thread dealing with all things "muscle", I thought I'd post this:

Equus Bass 770

Is it a '68 Camaro? A '71 Satellite?

A '69 Charger?

I would've like it more without the tribal on the back, but looks BEAUTIFUL!

@Cano it's not really a modification. If it wasn't for the price I'd have one already. But for that price, I'd rather buy a warehouse alongside 20 other cars.
 
I got more decent one along with great ones. Here we go again.

This one I do have a soft touch and spot for this one. I feel green rods are uncommon sometimes and I love this one.

Or even this one. It's a tad bit too low for my taste, but still good.

But this one I just love it. A lot.

And time for a few rat rods, two though. This one is a mean son of a b**** I tell you.

And I am in love with this one.
