So what is the status of this cool little number? Did you do it?
-
Very Cool engine, but the car is butt ugly and to much mini van style.
-
Very Cool Video! With Gas prices expected to hit $5+ a gallon this summer, I say do it as a CNG auto. 130 Octane, fuel at home and save big time for those tires you will be replacing every weekend.

I'm pretty sure he used to have a website (or maybe still does) full of Holden Chops back in the GTO era. I used to have it bookmarked. The guy is good.... real good. EDIT: Just checked, not the same guy. But whoever "MonaroSS" is, I wish GM would give him a design job. I totally agree this guy needs to be working for GM as he is very talented.

Does not matter, this just continues to preach that HP is everything when it is only one piece of the solution and instead of building a proper engine with Equal torque to HP they are relying on Electric motors to give it the torque. DOHC engines are not that efficient as marketing would like to preach.

Subaru News: Subaru Mulls About Adding Models To Their Lineup
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Subaru
Great another Hybrid that produces tons of Green house gases. The Nickel-metal-hydride is even worse of a polluter than the lithium-ion. Course there is also the settlment ponds full of toxic liquid besides the 10 yrs worth of Green house gas produced when the battery is produced. Then most green tree huggers and mother earth lovers do not think about this damage, only the tail pipe emissions. -
We'll Looks are in the eye of the beholder, I just find it sad that you have an engine producing all the Horsepower and such reduced Torque. Sorry but for all the fans of these OVC engines, I still do not see how the weight increase of over head cams benefit a traditional GM V8 that produces Torque equal to HP. After all you can have all the HP you want, but if you do not have the torque it is a waste. Diesels have proven that Torque is what wins the war and moves mass, not HP.

Is it me or does it need shocks in the rear, seems to be dragging it's butt. Over all nice clean car, I hope if it was meant to be it works out for you and goes your way. GoodLuck.

Interesting little number, I think there is a solid group of folks that will buy this. -
Cheers or Jeers: 2000 Chevrolet Escalastro!
G. David Felt replied to wildmanjoe's topic in Auctions and Classifieds
Not bad, if it was AWD it would have potential as a fun Ski ride up the mountain. One thing about the Astro, GM should have grafted the mini stage coach doors with the big glass onto the Subrbans long ago. -
Gm still has stupid people in mgmt positions that are still lemmings poising the company.

Thanks for this very cool insight. Question for you and everyone else. If the 6.8 can get you 550HP and about 525Lbs of torque, why not use it to supercharge rather than the 6.2? Seems you can get allot more out of this 6.8 than the 6.2 based on what I have been reading? Second question, what about reliability and long life using 6.8 versus the 6.2?

True luxuy is understated and subtle, not tasteless Kardashian bling. Yet so many would hit that ass! I bet some of the switchgear is shared w/ Audi and VW, though....some of dirty bits definitely are... Very true, there are always so many dirty bits shared across family plateforms. Nothing wrong as long as it stays strong and is quality built. Yet on a 100K Luxury Sedan, I want a solid feel in my hands when I pull the handle, not some flimsy Eco Box handle.

Sure would, and the result would be closer to a modern Ute. But I've had one of those, and like the stealth factor the '77 can provide. Do it with the RamJet 502! That would sure suprise people, course the LS9 Supercharged crate engine would also rock having a stealth El Camino SS!

Little Johnny in his High School Health Ed class. The teacher has been discussing all week long about how to be protected from STD's. The teacher holds up a Box of condoms and ask's "What are these?" Little Johnny: Opportunity Teacher: Think of what we have been reading on how these protect you and what do you have? Little Johnny: A tired class of girls and guys.

Love this, not all of us are small guys, The Camero while I love it, is just too small and I do have to admit that I love the Challenger due to it being a bigger Muscle Car. Bring this on as a Chevelle and you will find many interested buyers. I being one of them.

Karma News: Fisker Taking Bids From Geely and Dongfeng
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Karma
FapTurbo I understand not liking electric and it being early, but why would you be happy to have this technology taken over by another country after it was invented here and then lost to that country when the future finally gets batteries that can hold a 300-600 mile charge? We need to continue to invest in technology and look long term, not just short term and dollar signs. -
Nice Luxury Sedan, I am sure there are NO $1.80 Door Handles on this baby.

Saw a New Tesla Model S on the way to work, guy clearly got it over the Presidents weekend based on the dates on the temp license in the rear glass. Black with chrome door handles. I have to say it was very ugly and not impressed with it.

I totally agree, friends do not let friends drive Echo's!
