my 86 monte carlo powed by a 335sbc with 450hp all motor. i'll post pics of my 87 project monte carlo that has a 600hp 454bbc all motor going in it 2morrow!

the Cougar's in storage right now and the only pictures I have of it are from when I let my little brother borrow it to get his senior pics done. But here they are. The engine is a 351W stroked to a 392 and balanced, Performer RPM heads, Air Gap intake, 750cfm carb, custom grind cam (i can't remember exact lift but it's around .500), headers, MSD ignition. It makes around 450hp at the crank. That's mated to a 4 spd toploader and I kept the 2.83 gears because it still has good enough acceleration for me with them, plus it will scream down the highway like you wouldn't believe. I have a set of 17" black Torq Thrust M's I'll be putting on in the spring which I think will improve her looks quite a bit. I'll post more pics of it then.

Now, my dad always kept telling me how the 1970, I think, XR-7 had the 427 motor, and you could take one off the showroom floor and get those front wheels right off the ground.

They sure as shit don't make cars like they used to.
