i can honestly say i've sat in a 900HP pinto... it was scary to look at a 454 under its hood...

it would run low 9's in the 1/4 mile. i can't prove it so i'm sure someone will tell me i'm a liar.
a good friend of mine, before he passed away was bet that he couldn't put a 454 in his pinto. he proved us all wrong. he had a 14 bolt 1ton axle that he cut down sitting under the rear end.
the thing was mean.

I believe it. That's like people that cram 454 BBCs in the back of an old Chevette. Just plain crazy. haha

I saw a video of a crx driving to line with a big block, prolly a 454 but can't recall with certainty.
Had a big ole roots blower on top. The intake flappers were about even with the roof. It was overkill like I've never seen before
Unfournately the vid didn't show the race :/ who does that?

Somebody trying to show off a ridiculous car would be my guess.

Here's a sleeper to look at. I built this one for my father. This night I changed the rear spring rate so he was running a little slower than usual and all over the place. It's amazing what a little change in spring rate does to the launch. It's 96 S10 Blazer with a 468BB/2spd PG. It runs in the 10's but could be faster if I hooked the Nitrous up. He hadn't raced since 1979 so I was gonna try and kill him putting that stuff in there.

So you was gonna or wasn't? It's probably a good thing you left the Nitrous off breaking him back in to racing.

Training Wheels Man!! Getting him use to the truck before the Rehr Morrison engine goes in (632BB with Nitrous) The man hasn't raced since 79. He's gotta get back in the groove of things. Back then 13-14's were fast. You were somebody if you were running in the 12's. The big wheels kind of make it ride like a Cadillac also. With a skinny back tire the Blazer would rock back and forth a lot. It's heavy.
