Nope, but I wonder if that 860hp requires a 300 shot. And if it does, I wonder what he's got done for 560 N/A hp. Thats a lot of money for an LT1 car.

ummm, I'm really not agreeing on this one. Although it does look like a built motor, I really doubt 860 or whatever. Plus I doubt with that kind of power that you would have stock wheels, what about suspension? No pics of them or mention for that matter.

I'd stay away unless the person responds to a few inquiries or an inspection.

I don't plan on buying a new car anytime soon. I would NEVER pay more than 5K for an LT1. I was just curious as to what the market was right now. The motor looks like ****, There's no roll bar, no talk of a built tranny, stock 16 inch wheels, no suspension, that thing would NEVER hook. I was curious to know if the guy might have been on here or anyone seen the car before.

I saw that add too a few weeks ago and laughed. I was tempted to call the guy and ask him what all was done to the car.

Maybe 260 hp. I'd like to see someone make 860 through an lt1 intake and smog headers. It must be mustang math.

The only thing that piping might go to is a rear mount, OH WAIT! The car was built in 96, no, no rear mount turbo...... Anyone even making that with a rear mount anyway?
What a joke, I bet that guy hasn't gotten one phone call, unless people on here are having fun calling his *** out.
