Pics from the shop. jbsteven's GT getting some twins

Lucky Loser · 08-21-2009, 07:30 PM

Jason and I went out to Hennessey to check out the progress of his GT.

Old Exhaust and some pluming for the the turbos. They will get polished out after the fitting is check on the car.

Should look like this after it is done.

This twin Turbo Viper is going to Saudi.

ZR1 motor in the Camaro!

Ouch. Of course, those things can still make about 400 hp when they are completely seized.

I agree. They have a tractor type of sound. Still pretty good looking car.

Don't get me wrong, if someone wanted to give me one I'd gladly take it and drive the hell out of it.

:hint hint Jason:

It must be nice to have a lot of '**** you' money

VpointVick · 08-21-2009, 08:10 PM

I should be working in a shop like that instead of the ishtholes that I've been in since moving here.

subySerb · 08-22-2009, 12:10 AM

What's that thing in front of the radiator on the Camaro? Looks like a fuel cell to me, or maybe dry sump oil system?

MPRZIV · 08-22-2009, 12:13 AM

I'm guessing dry sump oil

TurmultTee · 08-22-2009, 01:00 AM

Hennessey sucks

ptclaus98 · 08-22-2009, 01:24 AM

Go huff a dong, both of you.

Yeah, blocks quite a bit of the radiator. It's probably the only place they could cram it in the engine bay.

Why can't you? Especially in recent times America has been churning out some fantastic vehicles.

Not sure, not a fan of all the cheap crappy interiors but i have only seen a few.
I was in a showroom looking at a few cars, Ford GT, 300C,H3 and a Challenger.
Ford GT uses a old dot matrix blue digital dash,the whole interior turned me right off.
The 300C and H3, you know what i am talking about when i said crappy interiors.
Challenger's panel's were not even, big gaps and point's where the panels touched.

Also, i never grew up on American cars being from Australia as Japanese cars pretty much dominate the market.
Saw my first Corvette when i went to the U.S in 02.

Oh, and the steering wheel is on the left so Australia did not see too many.

N/A_junkie · 08-22-2009, 02:31 AM

i would hate to know how much that LS9 cost

or they probably yanked it out of a zr1 that got wrapped around a guardrail or similar blunt object
