You are kidding right!?


He hasn't?

The $$$? As I said before, for some reason I thought he said money was no option in the original post. :roll: With the new baby depriving me of sleep, I've been cooked lately. But yeah, when I think about it, even if money is no option, there're much better options out there. Buuuuut, I was wrong and it isn't a matter of money being no option, so I'll just shut my face now. :D

The idea behind the cruiser was to have something that is fun to drive and sounds lumpy and loud. Im not looking at having a car that runs insane quarter mile times but i think a high 12 or low 13 sec's wud be nice. The GTP i owned ran a 13.7 stock, so something a bit quicker :) If i go thru with the project was hoping to get about 300hp at the wheels. So looks like exhaust, heads, manifold, cam, ecu, cai are the go :)

In that case, definately have a look at XH5LWEPN or s-tranzor's builds in the garage. Even schnoods is worth a look too. They're 3 different ways of cracking 300. NA 302, NA 347 or Supercharged 302.
