*Sorry For The Quality (digital Camera used to record)
*Sorry For the Sound (Cant hear anything but wind really)
*DEFFENTLY sorry about the mess..
*And the shaking .... and on and on lol...

ENJOY...

Here my baby is...sorry i talk during it you cant understand me piece of shit camera...and you cant really here my car to well wich is HARD TO DO!!!! but if you turn the volume to max when i start her up you can get a little taste ill get a better quality soon.

Let me know what you think. (Ohh and in the second video that was not pushing her as hard as she goes...that was about half there she gets on it a lot harder than that.)
*Im still a little dissapointed that you cant really here the car when i do the 360 view...god it sounds sooooo good...*

[rice(er)]

nice nice....not too bad, all i heard you saying was "blah blah" "lala di di di do do do" "poo poo" "blag blag yo yo" and maybe a "ca ca do du" in there too, not sure....

looks like you're from a small farming town, right?

overall, pretty sexy car, u need a manual conversation mang....

oh yeah, and drive careful, i see that thing going 100+ on the speedo or maybe im just seeing things, u should be more careful

[CassiesMan]

Now now ric(er), no need to talk down to him just becuase your car can't hit 100. Haven't seen the vids yet, but once I finish all seven Top Gear Downloads I got going, I'll check them out.

[Musashi3000GT]

Whats up with those guages under the dash on the right side of the steering wheel?
You shoulda hide that from the camera, Now people are gonna start saying your a ricer.

[Burnerdominator]

Musashi maybe he drives with his hands on the pedals to mess with people and need the gauges to see his speed ?.....Lol couldnt resist i just remembered my dog skip were they made it look like the dog was driving sorry just messi.....nice car 79 and renovating does suck to the extreme

[79Bandit]

no i dont live in a small town i just went onto a road where theres nothing, i wish i did live in a small town though. the gauges on the bottom left are the water oil and vacum and if you need to know why i would need those then oviously you have never drove anything with power. but thanks for the comments. me and the old man are getting ready to rip that engine out and bore and stroke it + i think i got a rod that has slipted because theres a little bit of a knocking soo probally want run her for awhile *just to be sure.

Haha yeah I was going to say those gauges were around before rice was made.

[lickem]

nice, ha they asked what the gauges were for. So fill me in I just became more interested in your car. that speedo was rockin man
hp
weight
gears

[banditkiller]

NOt bad not bad at all. My friend had a 79 z-28 with a 331 in it. He suggests if you want your tranny to shift harder and much faster to drill the valve bodies out one size bigger. I dont remember exactly how he did it but im sure there is a wrrite up about it somewhere online.Wish i could remeber in more detail exactly what it was that was done, but that was a few years ago. He did it and it would screech the tires shifting into third gear. More vids when you get the motor built!!

Okay lets see here where to start well the current hp is a little over 400... as for weight im not sure probally 100-300 pounds over a ton. as for gears im not sure i havent got into the ass end of the car since i've got it but i can tell you it has been set up for top end because in the video you see it maxed out on the speedo and the engine throttle response will still throw you back into your seat.


I pulled the engine out today and have already started getting into it. (a rod slipted) give me about a month and i will have bandit up and tearing the streets again **As for now i am going to get around in a 455 that i rebuilt this year (started in jan, its complety stock.)** were going to take it to my friends machine shop and there going to bore and stroke it for me to a 461ci (currently a 400ci) after thats done ill start putting it back together i have everything else a new cam timing chain lifters and a couple here and there parts. bandit will easily be putting out 550Hp with a nice 500Tourque to follow up on. and you can bet there will be a video waiting for you guys to see.

The Chevelle Vs. Bandit Race is Set For March 25 where going to the track and since he's only got a crate 350 auto tranny putting out 400hp im sure to toast this guy now...keep your eyes open and ill give you guys the results and updates on my car.

That car is extremely impressive, and I'am extremely jealous.
