Top Cars all from HP Factory in Melbourne ,Australia

Worth noting that the Gold car is only a 402CI LSX . And the reason for the bigger cooler is it runs Dry Ice .

Heres another car to make you all water about from the same workshop :
This Ute(pickup to all of you) is an OLD Skool 416CI SB CheV
Just pulled out a 1601 hp at the wheels .

Both Cars have a 7000rpm Rev Limit .




Theres also another Old Skool BB twin turbo'd 572ci Chevy Car from another Workshop in Canberra that just turned out 1700+ at the wheels .

Stay Tuned because the final in the HP Heros at the event is Tomorrow and theres more to come .

Well...it took 2 Aussie companies you bring off the shelf twin turbo kits for your F-Body's....and to do that they had to buy and ship a car to Australia.

So what do you think ? lol

Oh, and then who had to develop the best clutch available for the LS motors ?? Textralia.....from Australia.

Your Pontiac GTO...came from ?? Australia.

Some of the finest aftermarket ecu's in the world....Motec, Autronic, Haltech etc etc...Australia.

So they are pretty big into their cars.

Where does it stop? I couldn't imagine a power plant like either of those rides. That thing must suck in objects like a tornado at WOT
