A little fishy to me ..

this guy claims it makes over 1000hp ... I think he is off a few

Dreamer, maybe in a 1800 lb dragster 4.90, did you also notice that's a 3 3/4" toilet bowl.
Sounds like you have been doing it all wrong David. :P

Zip.

That's one I would have to see for myself.
I have ran 540's for years and a pretty good one also and the best I ran in a 3600 lb door car was 5.68.

He should show these guy's how to build engine's.

badass 540
 

I sent him a couple of messages telling him he had a typo...he responded it was no typo, just a good motor!

He will not respond back now.

A member for 6 days... do you think it is scam and run?
Dave

pretty stout number, for the particulars at any rate.

he also told me his 350 ran 6.00 @ 3200lbs ... must be a sb and a bb weight is the same now lol

Maybe I can get him to build me a sbc for my car.

i dont know.Sometimes people get lucky.It depends on how everything work.I built a 406 SBC and i dont know how but it runs 6.20s in the 1/8th on motor with cast iron heads and a big cam.I dont know how but when me and my dad built it we got everything working together,and working right.

just sounds good too good to me but hey if you beleive it ill sell you a bridge in brooklyn

badass 540
 

Sorry, but I dont think he got lucky with it. I can believe you and your 406 that runs 6.20's. A friend of mine has a 406 that runs 6.teens.

I think the reason for the chain is he was draggin it behind a 10.5 car or something.

What he's got there it is impossible.

I sent him more messages and told him good luck selling it. Told me a few minutes ago he sold it!

I told him someone is gonna be real dissapointed...

Sorry, but stuff like this just ruins the site for everyone trying to sell something legitimate.

Sounds like there is a sucker born every minute. :shock:

Well, we'll probably hear from that guy later on how he got ripped off.

you guys are right.I very seriously doubt it has 1000 hp and runs what he says it runs.I say it might have about 650-800 max..it may run high 5's

Bullchit !...i am 3060lbs and it takes a 250 shot (off transbrake) on a two dominater 18 degree Big chief 632ci....just to go Mid 4.90's....and this is working great out of the hole (1.11 60ft)

ohh and the 632ci is 1300hp all motor.....so what...its taking me 1550+ hp to get in the 4.90 range at 3060lbs in a great working Car.


yeahhhhh Big Bullchit on that one. :roll:

In your Chevy II NOVA??

with this guys math my sbc in my tuna boat should 6.50 in 1/8 hell i better ask a bunch more money btw ad 1701817

Re: badass 540
 

I just sent him a message asking if the price included the PG trans and he said yes, I asked if he still had it and he said yes, this was less than 15 min ago. Man I hope he doesn't sell it before I get there.... I am leaving from work right now. :D :D

I like the 77 Monte Carlo.How much you wanting for it??

5000 heads alone have 2500 into them

What kind of heads are on it?What kind of motor?Clear title?

The 500HP fogger is out of the photo guys?
 

Amen brother, if we had a dime for every thousand horsepower big block at dairy queen that ends up running 12 second quarter mile times at the track...............
I did not even bother red tagging this one with hammer because the claim is soooooooo obviously BS.
To pile on the reality, My 1200 HP 582" runs 4.79ET at 146 MPH and a 1.086 60' time, using a three speed trans at 2330# give or take.
Your car is very fast with 1500HP Brian, that is for sure, I have been very impressed with your performance #s

Bruce
and that is my real name :lol:

.060 350 gm cast heads ported and polished 9.1 pistons all new less then 200 miles on crank, rods, pistons, valves, springs, ect. 2.02/1.60 valves shortened drive shaft (th350 out of a truck) tires like new and yes clear title if it didnt have a title it would have been a stock car wont sell or buy a car with out title only

my grandpa is wanting a monte carlo.I will tell him about yours,And maybe he will buy :D :D :D :D :D :D

ok but cash deal

Alright,He is Loaded with cash.

Re: The 500HP fogger is out of the photo guys?
 

thanks Bruce but i cannot take any credit for the car working the way it Does....Alan Pittman and Tony Christian get all the credit for that...i Don't dare touch their chassis set up.... the only thing i do is adjust with the Nos computer by putting power in and taking it out as track can handle it...the gear retard stuff on the laptop really is a Big factor by ramping timing back in...Many people think the larger the shot the faster you go ( including me) up until this past year.....ohhhh but little did i know its all how the Nos is brought in and applied over course of the run including timing ramping
