I'd buy it if I had the money. That car is worth it. I believe it still has A/C and Heat.

Man I wish I could have that car...grrr

I like this quote:

YES, THIS IMPORT DOES HAVE A CHEVY PART IN IT, BUT NO ONE MAKES A STRONGER TRANS THAN THE WELL RACE PROVEN TH400 WITH A HIGH STALL RACING TORQUE CONVERTER.

I was having a little fun with the phrase "well-respected" on the Ebay ad for the car... and Bill got all puckered up.


Nice car though. I'd buy it if I had a use for it.

It says twinturbocharged so I'm guessing it was originally a twin factory but he put a single 88 in it? How's a T88 supporting 1500hp??! Fill me in here. I saw that it's running 60psi!

A T-88 on a smaller motor will make much more peak power I imagine... A T-88 on a 3.0L is probably like a big thumper on a V8.

60 psi? The inward flow that motor will allow to be force-fed faces MUCH stronger restrictions compared to our big breathing V8's. That's comparable to an LS1 running what, 30 psi? That's just ******* insane no matter how you look at it now that I think about it...

Well, insane on a GASOLINE motor.
