Went to a domestic meet sat in the red demon and ran another stroker SS. It
was a 414.
We were really close, if anything Id give us the advantage.
Here is the stroker we raced, running against a 625whp Cobra who "had never
been beat"

Is it just me or has the front of that car been put together very poorly?
jedimario
Its a combination of the panels and the light.
The front ends always look like that, in person its not a big deal but in
pics in certain light your like WTF.
Its like 10x worse on a formula
Enthusiast
I know what the front end is supposed to look like, and that's not really
it.
It doesn't even match up right to the right of the center crease in the
hood.
jedimario
thats american build qulity lol exactly what i meant by when i said the
s2000 has a nicer feel..just seems like it was put together better..sick
car nonetheless

Its justone car and its old you cant judge build quality on just a 11 year
old F-body.

Guys, can we all do something to reduce the length of time it takes to load
a page by maybe not having such big pictures displayed? I would appreciate
your cooperation in linking all excessively large pics where possible. Edit
is your friend! :thumbs:
Please note that if it occurs in future I'll edit/delete as I see fit.
Thanks!
Cliffy
Officer, may I ask you a question? Are you still using dial-up internet
service?? Loads fine for me, I am on broadband, and besides these cars are
so sexy its worth the wait :thumbs:
newyorker
Nope. Broadband all the way here...Not the most powerful broadband
(powerful in terms of speed, lol)...4-meg I think? I have a standard sized
screen too (15-inch ish), and most of the pics are also too wide for it
meaning I have to scroll left to right alot to see them. We've been here
before I believe. The way I see it is you shouldn't assume that somebody
has a 24-meg internet connection and a 20-inch widescreen monitor.
Cliffy
lol I know I do...a diff forum im on the pictures automatically get scaled
down to fit your screen...new feature for CF perhaps?
newyorker
You know you do what? Yes, it's like that on another forum I'm on,
too..It's a great feature, but one that's unlikely to make it to CF for
obvious reasons...There are loads of updates out there that CF could do
with! :ohcrap:

need i say yet again that the GTO isn't american?
and Cliffy.... I don't think 15" is a "standard size" monitor any more

It is for a laptop though lol. I don't think screen size matters as much as
much as resolution anyways.

i dont know about you but i consider a GM based company with a chevy ls2
under the hood to be at least slightly American

That better lol
GGtc4
Anyone wana school me on GM motors??
Whats a 350 and what does it mean
What is an LT
What is an LS
Whats the difference between the LS and LT motors
newyorker
:mrgreen:
you're kidding right?
After all the knowledge you claim to have... you ask that.
type "350 cubic inches in litres" into google.
windsonian
a 350 is the cubic inches of the motor
lt and ls are just model names the new ls motor is just a newer better
more fuel efficient engine that replaced the lt
lt- c4 vette
ls1 5.7- comaro ss, c5 vette and 04 gto 350hp
ls2 6.0-c6 vette, 06 cts-v,05-06 gto, new g8 and new comaro concept
400hp
ls6 5.7-c5 z06, 04-05 cts-v 405hp
ls7 7.0-c6 z06, new 08-09 cts-v 505hp
not sure what the litres on the lt's are
GGtc4
I mean small block big block etc...i duno all that ish
newyorker
no.... you didn't know what 350 meant
windsonian
no i know the 350 is a 350 cubic inch motor...i just dont know if its a big
or small block..dont put words in my mouth, instead put a dick in yours and
stfu:banghead:
newyorker
Small block. Just check on Wikipedia...Small block was the smaller GM
motors, big block was the larger series (although some overlap).
chris_knows
right..so whats the benefit of using one instead of the other
newyorker
Do you see anything about small block big block there?
I didn't put anything in your mouth
So you didn't know what A 350 was, but you know what THE 350 is ?....
obviously it's my mistake.... i should have realised that when you were
asking what a 350 is, you knew exactly what the 350 was.
If indeed you .. then ask that.
windsonian
I know that the number reffers to the cubic inches of the motor..
there was also something else i was watching barrett jackson auction and
they were saying something about interpreting the different numbers on
cars
like the mustang 427 or something they said that each number corresponded
to something, but kill me, I dont remember exactly what they said.
newyorker
so now you think 350 means 2 things?
windsonian
Very basic, but one is smaller and more compact, the other offers more
power.
chris_knows
no...i forget what it was they were talking about but it had something to
do with the number being decoded into some shit...ugh just forget it il ask
the old heads at the next classic car meet i go to
newyorker
350 means displacement. If they can make it into something else.... good
for them.
But you didn't ask any of that until you were called out for an average
question.
windsonian
Uhhhhh
Don't 350's have around 350 horsepower..?
Owari
They have anywhere between 145–370 hp...Depending on how they're tuned
(what car they go into)
chris_knows
A cylinder is a round hole through the block, bored to receive a piston.
All automobile engines, whether water-cooled or air-cooled, four cycle or
two cycle, have more than one cylinder. These multiple cylinders are
arranged in-line, opposed, or in a V. Engines for other purposes, such as
aviation, are arranged in other assorted forms.
The diameter of the cylinder is called the "bore" while its height is
called its "stroke." The "displacement" of an engine is actually a
reflection of the total amount of volume of the engine's cylinders, and
nothing to do with the actual size of the engine itself (although the two
are highly correlated). The displacement is simply the bore multiplied by
the stroke of a single cylinder, multiplied by the total number of
cylinders in the engine. Muscle car engine displacements were usually
measured in cubic inches, while modern vehicle's are expressed in terms of
liters. Roughly 61 cubic inches equals a liter of displacement. Therefore,
an engine with 350 cubic inches of displacement would be the equivalent of
5.7 liters.
There are different types of 350's long block, short block. like metioned
above is just a different type of 350.. some are fuel injected some are
carburated
also there are many different samall blocks.. 305, 327, 350, 383, 400. are
just to name a few common chevy small blocks.
as far as my addition to the domestic cars

not mine but one day
Montage
not true in all aspects. the 327 sbc could rev to the moon but the 350 cant
handle much unless the bottom end is modded. same goes for big blocks. most
racers use the 350 only because they are cheapest to build, but the power
potential from a big block is far greater than a small block in most
situations.
glagon1979
tell me more about this 383. what cars did it come in?
heres my pic

Moron!
Well, no. But let's not allow the facts to get in the way of your cut and
pasted and guessed and pulled out your ass dissertation. Here are just a
few examples of one cylinder cars.

Not always, but once again we don't want to let facts get in the way of
your opinion. Can you say radial engined cars?
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v325/vwhobo/adams-farwell.jpg
Or W-engined cars.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v325/vwhobo/VW_Phaeton.jpg
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v325/vwhobo/Bugatti_Veyron.jpg
Why yes it is.
Why no it's not. The stroke has nothing to do with the height of the
cylinder, the stroke is, simply put, the travel of the piston.
No, it has nothing to do with the volume of the cylinders and everything to
do with the swept volume of the cylinders.
You finally got something right, now all you need to do is comprehend the
definition of stroke.
All cars built in the US had their displacement measured and advertised in
cubic inches until the early '80s when the US government made it law that
the metric system would become the official form of measurement for this
country. It didn't matter if it was a Model T or a Hemi Cuda, inches is
how we measured things.
Look at that... Even a broken clock is right twice a day.
Huh? Say what? Long block and short blocks are different types of
engines? Before you start passing your special brand of bullsh*t off as
information, you'd better pull your head out and have at least a basic
grasp of what you're talking about. That one sentence right there proves
you don't have a clue. Look it up. Search it on this forum. It's been
covered plenty of times.
Define common Twinkie. There aren't a lot (relatively) of 327's or 400's
still around. A 383 is a custom built engine, and custom does not equal
common. Do us a favor and go crawl back into your hole.
vwhobo
He didn't write that. Click here
(http://groups.msn.com/MuscleCarTales/yourwebpage2.msnw) and then scroll
down to the part where it says "Cylinder". Look familiar? lol
chris_knows
Yes it does, hence the words;
vwhobo
I must have missed that lol.
chris_knows
want a tissue
why are you bitchin at me if its cut and paste.. he could have done what i
did and searched for it on google. Sorry i misinformed him of information i
was misinformed on. And i didnt say a 327 and 400 motor were still around
did I. im pretty sure i just said they're small blocks. but if it gives
you somethin else to cry about thats fine..
I mean you obviously have somethin to prove on here by bitching about every
comment posted. I dont mind learnin somethin stop crying about everything.

I reckon your thinking of the Oldsmobile 442. The 442 is not the size of
the motor, it stands for 4-barrel carb, 4-speed tranny, and 2 (dual)
exhaust IIRC.

One of the few things worse than ignorance is spreading ignorance.
giant016
understandable.. ill do more research before i post anything.. im tryin to
learn by reading. its hard to pick out whats bs
Montage
from wikipedia FWIW...
Common Misconceptions about the 442
Many people believe that the designation "442" actually referred to the
displacement of the engine in cubic inches (i.e. 442 cu.in.). However, it
had various meanings over the years.
Definition of 4-4-2 from the Oldsmobile Factory Literature: 1964 (Original
meaning)
4: Four Barrel Carburetion
4: Four On the Floor
2: Dual Exhausts
1965 (First year of automatic transmission option on 442)
4: 400 Cubic Inch Displacement
4: Four Barrel Carburetion
2: Dual Exhausts
1985 to 1987 (Last of RWD 442s)
4: Four speed automatic
4: Four barrel carburetor
2: Dual exhaust
1990 and 1991 (FWD 442)
4: Four cylinders
4: Four valves
2: Two camshafts
