More Minivan action!
Crusin, see a yellow, so I start to stop. As I start to stop I hear a loud hiss and watch a minivan pass me smokin the tires turnin slowly sideways as it lays hard on the brakes...crusin at the now red, both me and a guy sitting on theother side of the road are watching this rolling smoke creater in shock....The cloud was massive from this aerostar...it was badass...but scarry
Lession, never be infront of one on the freeway, you might have to stop, and they cant. Bty, he skidded right through the intersection.

Ah, I love aerostars! Yeah, the brakes are kinda weak... These things have got potential though, they can be lightened to 3300lbs just by taking out the seats, spare tire/jack, and you can put the 4.0 liter engine in... the 4.0 6 cylinder has distributorless ignition, the same MAF injection as the 5.0, and some surprising good heads for some years. The result, building a high compression/turbo 4.0 could get you 250-400hp, in a 3300lb Aerostar... I'm trying to justify the cost of building the 400hp engine right now...
BTW, my main target would be rice, it's becoming an epidemic in my town.

My guess is if you have the money to turbo an Aerostar, you can afford to put a new set of brakes on...

Ha, take your AWD back to Comrade Castro! Why would you want AWD when you can have a RWD minivan with a surprisingly powerful engine?
Driftage!

Whoring:
By definition; a). Selling one's body for a dollar profit, food, narcotics. Here, it means selling your body for performance mods! I got a great one for ya! There is a gentlemen in Calgary who owns a 96 Caravan. When he bought the van, his wife was made him get rid of the old musclecar...so he did...he sold it for parts, but used the money to put the musclecar powertrain in the Caravan. Now he's the only guy i know with a 96 Carvan struttin a 426 hemi under the hood. He pulled out the seats when his daughter left for college too. Can we say sleeper?!!
