ouch not a such a smart move

I appreciate the correction Incredible Serious.

Good..... that's where my work ends. I'm not into V8s. Never felt the need.







I will say though, a mate of mine years ago bought a Pontiac Parisienne. What a car. We used to call it the aircraft carrier. Sooooooo long, and yet, only two doors. Assembled in Australia too! Think they may have used the wings off decommissioned WW2 DC3s to form the doors......

But, I digress....

Here's my favorite V8. Also something nobody has a need for, but a boy can dream can't he?

Actually it would be a toss up between that and its roided out, stripped down younger brother.

Love the Ferraris. My favorite V8 is the Ferrari California.

My favorite V8 is the Chrysler 426 Hemi. It broke NASCAR top speed records that have not been beaten to this day, and is still the block of choice for present-day drag racing.

OK here is my favourite V8 it a toss up between original but i do like the roided out spicy version also
nice with a splash of vodka

That Holden looks strangely familiar
I had one of these, 3.3 straight six, fast as hell and ubercool
mind you it was 1971

My 7.3L Navistar Turbo Diesel 6200# Ford F-350 gets 31mpg hwy, 22mpg towing a 15,000# trailer-

It will also do low 11's in the 1/4 mi- but you can't see the truck from the Tree because of the soot.

Awsome!

Coworker of mine has a mid '90s F350 4 door all tweaked out. He took me for a ride once and I was very, very impressed with the performance of such a big truck. He said look behind us so I did and I couldn't see the tailgate.

I forget how much boost he is running but he can't figure out why he keeps lifting head gaskets.

If it is a mid 96 and after square bodied F series then it has almost the same motor, same block and heads-minus the intercooler and with a smaller Garrett T1 Turbo and lower volume injectors and diesel oil pump. The 7.3 is a CI block w/ CI heads, (6) head bolts per cyl (only 10mm stock)
and prone to stretching with a programmer and or exhaust restriction removal, ((oh yeah, mine has no Cat or Muffler whatsoever 4.5" from the Turbo back)) and they are known for blowing the LR corner's HG. Larger head studs ( 16mm ) upgrade allow you to increase the torque on the heads by about 60% and are rated at 1000hp- well worth the 6 bills.
