Muscle cars my ass!Musashi3000GT 02-10-2006, 04:53 PM Been awhile since I had anything worth talking about, the most exciting race Ive had in two months was a couple of nerds in an s13 and s14 240 tag-team fags who thought 150bhp + RWD = teh win. Today was a bit more dissapointing but at least the cars where faster. I was on my way to work on the TPK with almost no cars on the road at all. Im cruising along and constantly checking my rearviews (for cops...its a habit o mine) when I catch site of a car comming up fast on me, A big car. It had an old school grill with a big ass chrome SS on the middle of it. I figure its a Chevelle or something and make way to the side to let him pass. The dude swings around and comes up on the opposite side that I had given him. He pulls dead even with me and its an old man in a El Camino SS fully restored and he is giving me this look of disgust and yelling some crap at me that I cant hear over the radio and what not. All of a sudden his exhaust note gets louder and he starts to try and pull away. Im like "Fuck this, come get u some" I drop to 4th and match and start to pull. By 6K I had him two cars back and shifted to 5th and took it up to 125mph, I look back and the dude is like 5 cars back giving me the finger. Then right out from behind him a Mustang pulls out. I was doing like 100 by now so I slow down figure I'll let him catch up. Its a 66, 67 fastback also resotred. The guy was wearing shades and a cap with a Marines ensignia. He looked younger but his mustache was graying out. He floors it and I floor it without even shifting down. We stayed matched till I hit about 100mph again and start pulling. By 120 I had 4 cars or so on him. A third guy pulls out in a Caprice Classic. I'm thinking what the fuck is up with all these bald eagles? I didnt even wait for him to match me I just gunned it till they where all three little specs in the rearview. TerminalVelocity 02-10-2006, 05:40 PM hahahahahah, RANDOM! Good kills man, keep em' comming! Funny about the old guy giving you the bird! BullDog71ss 02-10-2006, 05:57 PM Most old men don't think anything without a v8 can be a fast vehicle. Sadly, they are stuck in their stupid ways. Also, not all the old muscle cars from back in the day were blazing fast. Most of them were low 14 - mid 15 sec cars and arent very good for highway racing because they have the aerodynamics of a brick on wheels. But we all know how easy and cheap it is to make an old muscle car into a 12 sec beast, plus they look so good. Nice kills Musashi. Now go make a list in my damn thread and add these to it!!! rice(er) 02-10-2006, 06:01 PM nice race mang, lucky basterds with the sunny winter weather, bleaggghhh...there were probably a small muscle car get-together or something, i think old men in muscle cars is the l88t, i always get scared when i see a muscle car BullDog71ss 02-10-2006, 06:04 PM [QUOTE=rice(er) lucky basterds with the sunny winter weather, bleaggghhh...[/QUOTE] It's been well over 80 degrees here for over a week. It's been so hot I've been running my a/c. Want to trade winters for a weekend? I'm tired of this inferno. TheStang00 02-10-2006, 07:09 PM a lot of muscle car guys like to keep the car in its original state nowadays to, like if they restore a old 60s mustang that has a 200ci I6 in it, they might keep it to keep the cars value. -The Stig- 02-10-2006, 07:23 PM hehe, it's been 72 here all week.

Infact, it never saw production. Comments: Without a doubt the most powerful engine ever made, the Ford 427 Cammer was developed with the intention of taking on Chrysler's Hemis. Ford gave the 427 block new heads with hemispherical combustion chambers. To cap that, they fitted overhead camshafts -- one per cylinder bank -- which gave the engine its name and allowed it to rev to an unheard of 7,500 rpm. With the regular single four barrel carb, the "cammer" put out 616 bhp, but with dual four-barrels, it produced a massive 657 bhp. With this kind of power, the "cammer" 427 was totally unsuitable for street use. These engines were not sold to the general public, but about 50 examples were built, mostly for professional drag racers. Because of the low production volumes, NASCAR refused to accept the engine as a regular production option, and thus Ford couldn't use the engine to combat the Hemi's. This sealed this engine's fate and Ford discontinued it after 1965. Ratings: 1x4bbl: 616bhp @ 7500rpm. 2x4bbl: 657 bhp @ 7500rpm, 550 lb-ft. You must be thinking of the 428 Cobra Jet Mustangs. On April 1, 1968, Ford unveiled perhaps its most famous line of engines, the 428 Cobra Jet. It was based on the regular 428 but included larger valve heads, the race 427's intake manifold, and an oil-pan windage tray. It had ram-air induction and breathed through a functional hood scoop. Output was listed at 335bhp but was rumoured to be around 410bhp. In fact, after Hot Rod magazine tested a 1968 Cobra Jet Mustang and achieved times of 0-60 in 5.9 seconds, and a 1/4 mile time of 13.56 seconds @ 106.64 mph, they declared it "the fastest running Pure Stock in the history of man." This was somewhat exagerated, but it helped boost the Cobra Jet's popularity with the buying public.

M3FordBoy 02-10-2006, 11:13 PM I've read somewere that the cammer was was originaly designed to beat the Hemi at the track. It said that it made 625ish hp with a single 4 barrel and 675hp with dual 4's. -The Stig- 02-11-2006, 12:20 AM ^ check out the 1968 mustang, there were 427s put into that year only, and not many people knew it so they didnt buy that many. obviously with the things you posted they arent cammers though... but regardless, the 427 in the mustang (whether it be the cammer or not) and the 428 and 429 are all totally different engines. the 427 is by far the best. i thought it was a tuned down cammer, but they did make a ohv version too, so that could be what it was. Yeah, you could get a 427 in a '68. 390hp, but they weren't OHV versions of the Cammer. It can't be. Two totally seperate concepts. Just like the Chevy LT1(OHV) and LT5(DOHC) are two totally seperate engine designs. I've read somewere that the cammer was was originaly designed to beat the Hemi at the track.

It was powered by the same 427 OHV motor that Ford factory NASCAR teams used. And, as we know, the Cammer was never allowed to run in NASCAR. In 1968, the FIA switched the class to run on 5 Liter motors, so the 7 Liter 427's were phased out plus, Ford had proven that an American car could not only beat Ferrari but win at Le Mans and they sold off thier cars to private teams such as Gulf Oil Co., the GT40s were now forced to use 302ci motors. In 1969, the FIA again limited the engine displacement and the GT40 was retired from racing. Although, I found this small tid bit of info: Around 126 Ford GT-40's were producing during the production life span. During this time a wide variety of engines were used to power the vehicle. The MKI used a 255 cubic-inch Indy 4-cam, a 289 and 302 small block. The 289 was by far the most popular, producing between 380 and 400 horsepower. When the MKI returned during the 1968 and 1969 season it was outfitted with a 351 cubic-inch Windsor engine. The MKII came equipped with a 427 cubic-inch NASCAR engine. The third generation, the MK-III, had 289 cubic-inch engines. The final version, the MK-IV all were given 427 cubic-inch power-plants. Not exaclty a 427 Cammer... but I'd never heard of that motor before. Must do more reading... off I go...

One of its various forms. I wish I could remember them all. Side-oilers, top-oilers, high-risers, medium-risers, and low-risers, among others. These mills came in various vehicles, including Galaxies, Fairlanes, Mustangs, Cougars, Mercury Marauders, Mercury Comets, AC Cobras, GT-40's, etc (Mike Greene). Regardless, the cammer itself was intended for racing only, but there are a few which have made it into the "street", making life a nightmare for, in many cases younger, but less vital, hemi's, LS6 454s, and even the boss 429. so apparently it was based off the ohv 427. how loosely or closely based, idk. oh yeah, the gt40 won 4 years in a row, i was wrong again :screwy: i got that mixed up with the 1,2,3 finish in 1966. this website has some pics of the 255 indy 4 cam in the indycar, and the block. http://www.avonaero.com/Foyt%20Indy%20car.htm other than that i didnt find to much of anything on the engine, i was hoping to see a hp number. BlackGT2000 02-11-2006, 06:06 AM Yeah I always thought that the GT40 used the 289 just like the original shelby cobra. G-man422 02-11-2006, 08:05 AM g-man- where are you in ohio?

Well the only things Ive done to the car to add hp is a custom cat-back, intake and light weight crank pulley. everything else is suspension work. And Im glad your not surprised I beat them, for the most part 95% of the people on this forum think 3000GTs are slow. I had people surprised I beat a Mazda 3....A FUCKING MAZDA 3! I mean sure I dont run 13s but shit at least I hold down low 15s! There was even a dude claiming his stock 170hp Ralliart Lancer was as fast or faster then me. thats at least 3 people that have a clear picture of my car's performance now. :shakehead -The Stig- 02-13-2006, 06:04 PM Well the only things Ive done to the car to add hp is a custom cat-back, intake and light weight crank pulley. everything else is suspension work.

Isn't it also true that originally you only had to make 50 motors or cars to compete in NASCAR but when Ford came up with the Cammer they changed to rule to 500 and Ford just couldn't afford to produce that many. 209 SRT 02-14-2006, 09:36 PM nice races, but musashi can you do me a favor? Us poor guys who only have small 15 inch monitors that only support 1024X768 cant handle your sig. Everytime you post in a thread i have the scroll sideways like 3 inches.
