I built a "Monster 3.8L" in high school back before they had the 4.2L.
people laugh now but is was a pretty Strong runner.
Carb'd 4BBL, ported heads, open element air cleaner, Good plugs and wires, I had dual exhaust and ran an AOD and 8.8 posi out of a wrecked '86 Mustang and it would smoke the tires pretty good but didn't really kill me on gas.
To each there own. Honestly though... if I went 6 again make mine SC!!! :burnout:
Trust me I'd rather not change the K-Member but it is slightly bent.
The side moldings are still holding on nicely. There has been some non professional body work done to in on the fender lips (around the wheels) and other various spots but they matched the paint pretty well. The interior is immaculate.
I was raised in a "spanking when you earned it" household and I turned out pretty good. I had friends who only ever got yelled at.... There in jail, on drugs or just on welfare with kids and drinking problems.
I met Eddie Furlong and Gene Simmons when I worked as an extra on the set of Detroit Rock city.
I drove a '71 'Cuda and a '70 Superbee in a few back ground scenes and also played a t-shirt vendor.
Eddie was pretty high most of the time. I hung out with him and a friend for about 20min just shooting the Sh*t.
Talked to Gene after a shoot. He had taken off his makeup so not too many people recognised him. He was about to autograph a hat for me when a small group of women recognized him and began running towards us. Security rushed him off but he made sure to toss me my hat back. Cool guy.
Figures.
