PWNYCAR is finished(Bastard v8 content).

[FunfGan]

I've got a ton of "pro" shoots coming at some point, but I couldn't get any done before I left for college. So I'll add those as they happen, but now enjoy some my buddy snapped after he spent the day cleaning the hell out of the car, as well as a few a friend snapped at a car show.








(Photo cred to Miller Roberts :) )









Oh. Right, the loud bit? (Sorry I still don't have any good acceleration videos, clutch is slipping over half throttle).

[kway]

Hearing that sound come out of an e30 is pretty sick. I dig it.

[straight6pwr]

clarkson tach is beyond awesome.

love all the little details.

[FunfGan]

Thanks guys! Appreciate the kind words. And yeah, everyone loves the little details on the thing. Which is good, because it's not exactly in perfect condition. Also, the mustang emblem broke off during cleaning which is why it's not in those first pictures, but it's back on.

And I just used a Tamiya paint for model cars, if you're interested I can get the exact thing when I'm home on a break.

Vroom vroom :)



Also, incase anybody is wondering, my swap ended up weighing only slightly heavier than an M50 swap, and is still just as chuckable as the m42 :)

[kwill22]

yea man it looks good. like everyone said its beauty is in all the small things that make it different.

[Simon S]

high fun factor !

[mikeedler]

I like it.

What kinda of HP numbers are we talking about? is it a late 80's 160hp motor with smog heads, or omething a bit more fun?

[FunfGan]

Nope, it's a '91 HO motor bored to 306CI with stock heads, but aluminum rockers, FR E303 cam, SRP forged pistons and maybe a few other things I'm missing... Ran 3xxhp and 407Ft/lbs last time it was dyno'd, but I'm running a slightly smaller carb and intake combo, and haven't tuned it perfectly. Regardless, it's still got some kick :)
