i was reading it and it sounded really great. i didnt really know what the lambo spoiler meant...i figured he meant the high rise. i almost puked when i saw it.

EDIT: wrong address...

see nothing in the ad about lambo spoiler perhaps double check to make sure you got the right link?

I could make that car look good again. put it back on the ground where it belongs, remove the wings hood and put all the stock stuff back on then paint it black. I think it could be made into a really nice car.

Yeh i was thinking the same thing, this guy slapped soo much junk on this car its a shame, the gauges were done untastefully actually the whole car was. looks like a great buy for parts alone although its does have potential to look like a nice thirdgen.

Huh...I wonder how much the reserve is because if it's anywhere near the current bid of 2 grand, then it's a STEAL...but yeah, you'd HAVE TO rip off the 747 wing and all the strange assorted crap. The drivetrain data seems to all work out as well, so it at least looks credible.

650 horsepower!?!?! RIGHT. I'm pretty sure theres no combination of a cam and siamesed runners on a standard TPI manifold that will let that thing spin to 7500 rpm where you MIGHT POSSIBLY see that kind of power, thats miniram territory. Makes you wonder what else he's exaggerating on.

Axle/Gears: 9 bolt rear disk
Im not sure to belive it or not. Hard to tell from the picture but a 383 with what looks like a set of alum heads on it. A paxton supercharger kit and i think i have seen aftermarket intake systems like he claims.

i would say 450 hp at the crank would be reasonable considering the blower can make up for a few mistakes in combonation, with displacement and boost alone. then again its all theory. The parts alone on that car are worth 2k depending on what reserve is with a paxton kit and a good body camaro

:edit: just noticed it has a msd ignition aswell
