Re: Interesting article on the 4.8
That's an unreal amount of power from a little 4.8.

Re: Interesting article on the 4.8
So they added about 7 grand worth of parts to it to make that power.

Re: Interesting article on the 4.8
7 g's... sure.. and a 2000 buck cutout, you're still under 10 bucks per horsepower.. that's pretty good in my book..
I'd like to know what they could get with 94 octane and meth. ie street tune.
