Only the *** end IMO. I absolutely love the rest of it, very exotic and aggressive.

So do you think a stock 70 Chevelle SS made almost 700whp?

He really is that "special". How did you even make it into the military MAC? Surely they required you to pass at least one exam of some sort to be accepted.

Please show me one of those infamous 700+rwhp STOCK 70 Chevelles...


Oh, look at that....

"This package included a 454-cu.in., 360hp Turbo-Jet V-8 (known as the LS5)"

Only about 340bhp off...

http://www.hemmings.com/mus/stories/..._feature4.html

"The base 454 cid engine was rated at 360 hp (which was also available with cowl induction) and the optional LS6 version at 450 hp."

Getting closer.. but still 250hp off...

The cars he is talking about made ~500hp at the crank at best. NOWHERE near the 700rwhp that this sad excuse for a person is talking about.

At least, that **** bothers me, though it might not you. I do apologize for lashing out though, cause it was uncalled for.
Agreed, for the most part anyways. !00% on the false info for sure, the spelling part is kinda "meh" to me as long as I can get jist of the matter.

The new vette is absolutely **** to me, even the backside. One will reside in my garage as soon as the '14 Acadia is paid off, F'n priorities!

Now, back to the regularly scheduled programming.
I think the 03-04 Termi's were a gift from Ford to its faithful followers. They were underrated on purpose because of the gross over-rating of the previous gen cobra (which looks better to me, for some reason I like the SN 95's), as an added bonus they easily outperformed LS1's in equal tests and you get that evil supercharger whine to boot! The new coyote raised the bar again and did it without needing to be boosted, 40ish hp increase over the Terminator.

I am really just glad that our generation is in the middle of another horsepower war, all of us get to reap the benefits, let the manufacturers keep duking it out.

Let the record state that at NO time did I agree that any stock Chevelle made 700rwhp/bhp/roofhp/plutoHP. I think the show is neat, though.

Even though its only 8:45 AM, I know this is going to be by far the dumbest **** I'm going to read all day, maybe all week for that matter. Mac's truth = everything minus fact.

It's starting to grow on me, but I'm still not fond of the tail. Other than that, I think GM did quite well with the car as a whole.

Goodness sake that is not what I was referencing. Go back to my previous post #272. I put the quoted text I was referring to in bold print for you to understand what I was talking about.
