That which keeps me sane.
 
The pause that refreshes...aka; Happiness is a long driveway.

The tiny bite-sized:

For those with a sub, who would prefer to hear the basso profundo of the LT1 better, the chunky:

...And yes, I know my reverse lights are out, and indeed, that's me coughing up tire smoke at the end, if you listen carefully.

:shrug:

Mmm. Tire smoke and two stroke oil. Sure it's bad, but it's so good for the soul...

I keep my snowmobile coat in the mud room for no other reason than the fact that it makes the room smell like 2-stroke engine fumes.

:drool:

Of course you're gonna do a burnout....there are twigs/leaves and gravel all over the road. lol

I guess it's safe to assume that's your feet in the video? redflip

Actually, it pulls until about 5500...which to me seems comparitively early, because the SB I built for the Chevelle used a solid bumpstick in its first incarnation, and I used to wind it to and past 7000 routinely. It was always hard keeping in tune well enough to pull all the way to 7 grand in 4th gear...but when it was ON....silly.

This things gets up without getting windey...there's 6 gears. No waiting.

Nah, this is the "new" small block. The coolant goes the other way, uses glycol. It's a nice package. I wish it wound out to 6500, had a bit less cowl shake, and the ASR was set just about 10% looser to allow a little more fun before mommy takes the throttle away (there is a defeat)...but other than that, it's a pretty well behaved animal.
