DILLIGAF posted:1955 Apache resto mod (Also a 350 crate motor) I have no idea what those wheels were on originally Those are off an '07-'14 Chev 3/4 or 1ton. Presumably axle and IFS setup too because I'm pretty sure they switched bolt patterns for that generation (or somewhere in the middle of it).

My 18 year old cousin had a PT cruiser, and someone crashed into it, and I said "good, those are one of the worst cars ever made, and the world is a better place with one less of them on the road." Then she got another one to replace it.

I don't have any investment in the PT either way, having never been exposed to one, but I just have to wonder how many of you would call it "one of the worst cars ever made" if you'd ever owned an eighties Lancia. I've owned an eighties Lancia. Fake edit: I talked to my coworker literally today about stuffing a 2JZ into an A-body, and what shows up on speedhunters today?   I love it.

5.2 liters and "flat plane" don't go together well in my head. They'd need like 70 pounds of balance shafts on each side. That being said, I love the sounds of a flat plane.

If ford gets an 4500lb aluminum raptor, flat plane v8 gt350, and 350hp awd focus RS out in the same year, it's all over, everybody else can just pack it up and go home. This is a naturally aspirated street driven car. No turbos, no supercharger, no nitrous.

There were so many awesome cars at drag week. That Super Bee (I think) that was capable of mid 10s on Wide Ovals or Redline bias ply tires was mind blowing.

These are the very same people who think that the next Corvette will very definitely be mid-engined this time. Totally. Not like the last time when we were wrong, or the time before that, or the time before that one either. This time we've totes got it.

I've had several friends, all car guys, who should know better, say something along the lines of "Ya, the C7 is beautiful, but I can't wait for the mid-engined C8!" It makes me want to punch them.

Modus Man posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MyLHStnfb9E Yeah, that's not a flat-plane noise; it sounds pretty much like any other high-revving cross-plane V8 (like the outgoing M3, for one). This is a flat-plane noise: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZlmUfxlJjXw There really isn't any way you can make a cross-plane engine sound like that. Once again, it's the retards at the car magazines trying to come up with stupid poo poo to sell their rag and nothing more.
