Last check I did I was getting 32mpg on the highway on my way to work each day. I see no need for a warranty, I work on Chevy's all day so fixing anything on my car is nothing to cry about, and what the hell are emissions? I live in Florida, we don't have to deal with none of that!

Yes, most people call it a 35R for short. There are various trims of the GT35R. Two different inducer/exducer sizes and they are offered in your standard exhaust a/r's, .63 .82 1.06. The 3582 is for reaching power goals around 600whp.

Good luck building one! Lets see you melt down some coke cans and cast a block in your garage all by your wittle self.

550rwhp +/- is not bad for a STREET car on PUMP gas, btw my rwtq is not bad either thanks!

But with every post you show more and more intelligence. So, please please post more, will ya, please. lol

Peace,
Craig.

You are fun to argue with...

Granted, I do make less power than that on my 2.4, but you know that racing is not about pegging dyno's, but hitting a good target power to weight ratio. 550whp in a full interior F-body should do about ~123mph? I only weigh in at ~2950.

well If got near 30mpg I would be a happy man. I commute 50 miles to and from work through forrest, dodging deer and all..

My entire fuel system is upgraded with a highflow pump and boost/demand regulated fuel rail. I shift at about 29-3000 rpms......

I hate gas prices.

I just need 2x GT-30s and I'd be happy Then I'd probably have to rods, pistons, upgraded studs and stuff The motors in the 996s are good to 600whp so they say. I'm sure they could hold more, but iono if I could even afford to do the turbos I'd keep it where its safe on a stock motor.

I am obviously not going to cast a motor in my garage. I never said that 550whp on pump **** gas was not a good achievement, I said that I don't need anyone to build my motor for me.

I was just thinking.. He keeps pulling the cubes card yet comparing a turbo car's pathetic dyno numbers to an N/A car.. I say lets see what that little 2.4 makes on motor just so we can really talk some trash to Craig about how poorly his car dynos?

You drive a Ford. I have no idea why you are even bothering to contribute any of your comments to this.

I know man, I was joking. But excuse me if I wanted a motor with a 2 year / 24k mile warranty. Plus I was the 1st Darton sleeved 427 block MTI did. I would love to see you sleeve a block yourself.

And we also have a HUGE drivetrain loss vs FWD cars.

Peace,
Craig.
