My car, 350 install results VIDEO (exhaust and some tire spinning)

For those who are interested how it all came out. Still need to rebuild/install my Edelbrock carb. The thing seems a little slow off the line. I thought it should spin the tires with ease now, you know? Heck, the timing might still be a smidge off. At least its in working order and seems reliable since i've put about 200 miles of mixed driving on it with no probs. I already have a hater on my car lol, just look at the comments. Ah well what can ya do.

I'll be making some burnout videos soon also..but with my old tires.

Sounds great. I have a factory LT1 style dual setup on mine, it's pretty quiet. I've been thinking about something with a little more rumble to it.

Don't worry about 'yoshistory360', he just doesn't understand.

Let him stick with his unibody car, I happen to like mine with its full frame and I am sure you agree. Plus, there's a certain sexiness about a car that looks pretty mundane as far as performance is concerned, but can open up the can of whoopass when called for. These kinds of cars are known as 'sleepers'. Kinda like the fictional helicopter from that 80s TV series 'Airwolf', still one of my favorites.

Thanks. You definitely know what to say about these cars when people like 'yoshistory360' chime in. I totally agree about body on frame and the looks of these cars, they do have their own way of attracting people.

Yeah dude that is so cool haha! That would be really cool i;d LOVE to see your caprice especially since itts a 2 door! I'm only running a single flowmaster 50 right now but i'd love to go to dual 50's. I'd love to see and hear that 383 too when you get that in. Just contact me here or on YouTube when you get back man and good luck overseas.

Re: My car, 350 install results VIDEO (exhaust and some tire spinning)

yea its nice, bought it from a family friend for a grand few years ago cuz i needed a car, had 80000 on it, now it has like 97000 but unfortunatly its sat fo the past few years. its totally solid, very minor defects to the body, but the drivetrain is just old as hell and the interior needs a lil refresh too like a new dash and drivers seat cover. so next summer once im home im just gonna do it up in the driveway with some good friends n good beers. keeping an eye out on craigslist n stuff for engines too. but definatly doin straight 40's all the way back, i dont give a fuck how loud it is, always helps to have veteran plates and know alot of weymo cops too. hull on the other hand is a tough one, i got pulled over a few years back with my iroc with 80's and they said its too loud, but that wass before the military shit too back when i was just a punk. i def wanna re do the suspension and throw it on some cragers wrapped in bfg's, add me on fb if you want man. http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=570502794
