02 BMW M5
07 Vette Z06

 

Nice Vette! I wouldn't mind road racing but I wouldn't do it in my own car...I would **** myself!

I have a 2003 Mustang Cobra and the wife sometimes drives a 98 Mustang Cobra.

 

Supercharged w a HUGE intake

What engine is that ? Other mods ?

 

Which one?

I have eight now, all low mileage vehicles. Three of the 10 are extremely low mileage.

1994 Ford conversion van (33,000 miles)
2001 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor (19,000 miles)
2003 Mercury Maurauder (4,000 miles)
2003 Ford Excursion
2004 Ford Explorer
2010 Chevrolet Impala (white)
2010 Chevrolet Impala (silver)
2011 Honda Civic LX-S (500 miles)

(I stopped buying Corvettes in 1979. I had bought new ones in 1975, 1976, 1977 and 1979. I would like to have a 2011 model, but I will never pay $75,000 for a new car as long as I live. I just bought 2 new Impalas for far less than I could buy one Corvette.)

 

2000 Pontiac Bonneville
2006 Honda Odyssey
1988 Chevy Suburban 4x4
'69 Pontiac GTO convertible
'72 Pontiac Grand Prix
'77 Pontiac Grand Prix
Factory Five Mark IV Roadster (in progress)

 

Actually that's how it was about a month ago. I've since taken it completely apart and am going to install it in the wife's cobra. The engine was a stock forged 4.6 DOHC cobra motor with some big headers and a 3.4L whipple blower. In december I have a custom motor that will finally be finished! It's a forged aluminum block motor with Darton MID big bore wet sleeves, Sonny Bryant billet stroker crank, Oliver billet rods, L&M spec Diamond pistons, Race port heads from Modular Head shop, enlarged valves, titanium retainers, Crower high load springs, custom grind Bullet racing cams, etc etc. Just a real knock out of a motor! Going to put a Procharger F2 on it eventually!

But on my 03 I have it in my mind to go to an old school Big block Dart Big M style tall deck motor with a 10-71 blower stack on top! For some reason everytime I look at this 03 and imagine a big bad chrome blower stack on it I get a boner so I'm gonna do it hahaha


Some of you guys have tooooo many vehicles!! I used to have 4 Mustangs but it was just too many for me to want to take care of! How do you guys do it!

 

Nice we need pics

In thought I had a lot of stuff, I'm glad on this board, I feel like need to go out and buy something

 

Cool my Z06 has a Katech cam, Mahle pistons, wet sleeve cyl liners, LSX intake, Kooks headers. Makes around 650hp
It also has Brembo brakes, Moton shocks, 5 pt roll bar, custom interior by Caravaggio Corvettes. I like a nice interior

I have a 68 Vette thats being restored w a 509 Aluminum block

 

My other ride:


Why would I need more?
(why wouldn't you?)
You're right.

So i have a 1600cc yamaha roadstar and a 35' winnebago.

 

Sounds healthy! I almost went with a Vette but I was always a Chevy guy and wanted to do something different this time. I should have just bought a Vette! That interior is crazy looking LOL!

My little Ford engine will end up being about 5.5L up from 4.6L and should put out N/A 480hp at the crank but it's low compression and built for boost. I just love superchargers too much to do anything else hahaha!

That 68 sounds like a little beast! I'm putting a big block in my Cobra because I miss the feel and sound of a big block....just nothing like it. My first muscle car had a decent little 454 that got me hooked!

BTW, I love Kooks Headers! That's what mine had but I sold them when I thought I was going to go turbo instead of Procharger. Had those with full 3" exhaust with dumps....sounded like a beast!

Here's some pics of my little setup,







Hopefully by November or so I can have some finished pictures of the motor.

 

Nice

I road race my Z every chance I get at the local tracks

Hopefully going to Homestead in Nov. That NASCAR banking is addictive

I see 140 mph coming out of it

 

Like I said....I would definitely make a mess of myself in that situation! I love building these fast cars but I really don't have it in me to go fast!
