[bommy261]

awesome.

Stock brakes?

 

[exdeath]

Stock brakes?

Doesn't look like it. Looks like at least 13" rotors behind the front wheels. Those are 17" wheels on the front and if you look at the second pic the brake disk takes up the entire wheel.

Full size tire fryer?

Some pics look like stock brakes + his mod list does not mention brakes - but the photo of the car on Marauder wheels in the magazine make it look like aftermarket brakes.

Who the "edited" slows down? Isn't that what brakes are for?

 

[ThatsABigOne]

Wow. Talk about drag!!

 

[Tristicus]

Wow. Talk about drag!!

Drag racing. :awe:

 

[AdamK47]

You would probably need a 10" cowel to cover that.

 

[SithSolo1]

Reminds me of the Drift Emporium G35.

It looked better pre-stickers

 

[punjabiplaya]

cowl or naked?

 

[exdeath]

Naked. Something about seeing a police interceptor with a big tach in the windshield and induction bits sticking out through a crooked hole in the hood Mad Max style. Not talking about the Falcon, I mean the one that crashes in the very beginning of Road Warrior with the turbos and piping and stuff sticking out the hood.

 

[Jbusch]

No cowl over. I have to agree with exdeath something sinister about seeing a hood cut because the go fast bits wouldn't fit otherwise (as long as they are functional).

but, there is overkill

that looks like it's a fwd car. not too many fwd would have a supercharger like that without a major overhaul.

 

[jlee]

Heh. Win. :awe:

 

[arrfep]

It's got a cop motor.

 

[LordMorpheus]

I saw this car or one like it at crownvic.net. There's a number of guys making crazy power in panther chassis cars.

 

[BUTCH1]

It's got a cop motor.

And cop springs, cop battery, ect!..

 

[JCH13]

Stock brakes?

Could be the P71 (cop) brakes, they're a little bigger than the civilian ones IIRC.

 

[exdeath]

Nope, it's a RWD inline engine. Front of the head with the oil fill cap at the front.

Add: It's a Chevy Colorado truck with longitudinal I4 RWD. Vortec 2800/2900.

Any mechanic would call that a fake even with the hood down. Hoses that just go wherever, screws and washers holding the front of the "blower" on, metal boxes that are supposed to be carbs I guess? And obviously no belt drive, throttle linkages, etc.
