It was actually a "High rise double pumper carb". They screwed that up so badly I almost thought I was watching an episode of the Dukes of Hazzard.

That looks more like a mechanical fuel injection or some side draft webers to me.

Be interesting to see the vehicles featured in the next one (and there were enough loose ends that I'm sure there will be a next one)...

There is a second one coming. It is based on Soundscream finding Unicron and Unicron rebuilding the Decepticons. If you stayed for the credits you see Soundscream leave Earth. I wish we still had it in theatres, I only got to see it twice!

On another note, 9 days, and one of the most amazing movies is released on DVD, 300!!!! w00t! I bought a 300 shirt from HOT TOPIC yesterday.

Obviously sarcasm doesn't make it across the internet quite as well as I had hoped. What I meant was that she SAID "Nice high rise double pumper carb". Obviously, a "high rise double pumper carb" does not exist, which is why I said they screwed that up so badly I thought I was watching the Dukes, a show that was notorious for screwing up mechanical references. "Hey, Bo, the General's losing power!" "Yeah, Luke, he's got a blown oil gasket!"

that's kinda like the same "car lingo" they used in Gone In 60 Seconds.
