hmm 450 at the crank would be about 400 or so at the rear wheels, which is pushing it with that setup IMO. List looks pretty good, but I wonder why he has 42# injectors? Maybe he sprayed the **** out of it?

Well ill call the guy today to see if he was using nos or not. He's asking 11000 for it. I dont really want a sprayed car, if so i'll just look else were.
Is there anything else i should ask him?

Was the car tuned? With ported and polished heads and a smaller cam, the #'s do sound a bit on the high side...with a 12% loss it's be right aroun 396rwhp. I'd wonder about the 42# injectors as well.

Just called the guy.
He's the 3rd owner
The car has been driven pretty hard he says. Has not been sprayed.
Everything is stock, along with the rear end/tranny/engine besides the clutch. I'm assuming this is something to worry about with this much power...? yes no?
Clean title/new tires. The struts are kinda old (3yrs). Few paint chips on front bumper. Was washed every weekend or so. Car runs strong from what he says but you never know.
Asking 11000.
Give me the lowd down guys. Should i pass?
