Yes sir…from the time it lights up till it goes silent it keeps you grinning
Best way. I understand. My car is a cantankerous pain in the butt. I put up with it cause it's so fast. I could detune it some more, but........At least I have other vehicles I can drive. On a day like today, she'd run fairly well in traffic for a short time. 84 SS Monte Carlo, 434 stroker. Bad to the bone.....
SWEET MAMA!! Yea, you gotta keep us up to date on that one!!
Yea..my last pony was an 89’ notchback gt. Wasn’t as finicky as my current one, but, didn’t have as many horses either.
That big cube stroker has got to be a blast.
Seats, arm rest, head liner, and rear panels are out of my F150.......its about to get a deep clean after getting the back glass resealed.
Oh it is!! I used to be a big fan of Mustangs. Had a 75, V6. Then a 73 Mach I, 351 Cleveland. Then an 83 factory rep car. It'd get squirrelly in 3rd easy. It was a 5speed with the TRX wheels.
When I bought the SS, I was looking for a big block car. It had a 383 stroker in it then. The numbers looked like what I was looking for. So I bought it. It took me a half day how to figure out how to drive it. It had @ 475Hp then. One thing lead to another and I put the 434, 700HP in it. That took me @ 1500mi to figure out how to drive it. When I was breaking it in I was goin down the interstate @ 90MPH. I punched it. It liked to have scared me to death and I'm an adrenaline junky. It felt like all 4 wheels left the road. I ain't kiddin ya.
Before with the 383, I'd spin the tires anything 40MPH or below if you punched it. The 434 will get sideways at 60MPH.
Chasing down a gremlin that makes my Honda ST-1300 lose power after it gets good and hot-- an hour down the road. This is the first time I've had all the plastic off on the right side. It took a phone consultation with the mechanic to get it off and God only knows what it's gonna take for me to get all that Tupperware back on
I may leave it off and go for a ride with the bike looking like a cadaver on the autopsy table .
Been a Mustang owner forever. First was a 64 1/2 gt, then a 65, 67 and my favorite was a 70’ Boss 429, an 89’ and now this 16’. The boss was only rated at 375 hp but was actually more like the 2015 coyote at 435. Any way you look at it cubic inches and horsepower is where it’s at for most us country boys
