If there is one thing that Australia will forever be known for, it’s big cube V8s in some wicked cars. Speedhunters took a look at Spot On Performance’s Torana and here are the highlights. We never got a version of the Holden LJ-chassis Torana. Being a compact, rear-wheel drive car; about the closest thing to […] More »

I’m a sucker for second Gen. Camaros. Especially examples that are designed to kill the corners and are as clean as they are lethal. Maybe someday I’ll have the money and time to build one of my own, but until then, I’ll have to live vicariously through people like Deborah and Tim McGiltons who happen […] More »

Stories like this boil my blood. Actually, a lot of scammy things on Craigslist boil my blood, but I do admit the often-entertaining (and perhaps horrifying) bits tend to balance it out.

I don’t care what anyone says, a carbed LS motor is badass! Especially when it’s stick-shifted and launched at 7,800rpm! It also doesn’t hurt if such a motor resides between the fenders of a third Gen. F-body and it runs 10.80s @ 127 mph!

That lithe frame does wonderful things when you slip an LS under the hood with the added boost of twin-turbos. Holley’s LS-Fest is wonderful just because you get to see stuff like this. 8-seconds […] More »

As I’m sure most of you already know, the Hot Rod Roadkill series is awesome and a recent search through past episodes unearthed one I’d never seen, one that has a nitrous huffing LS6 swapped stepside Chevy, mini bikes and plenty of burning rubber! Said truck, dubbed, “The Muscle Truck,” has an LS6 under the […] More »

Words can’t explain the lunacy of an LS-swapped Willys Jeep and here’s proof someone was not only crazy enough to make one, but also drive it with anger! The original open-cockpit Willys Jeeps were already dangerous enough with the paltry stock motors thanks to a stubby wheelbase, a high center of gravity and no seat […] More »
