1979 Malibu 9 Second Street Car Shafiroff 472 Bbc on 2040-cars
Gainesville, Florida, United States
This car belonged to a very good friend of mine for 20 years, I purchased the car from him after a few years of begging, lol. In all seriousness, the car meant the world to him, it never spent the night outside, it was painted in 2000, it still looks very good, the car is solid and straight. He switched to BBC combo that you see today, he spent over 16k on the power plant, its a Scott Shafiroff 472 12.5 compression I believe, it has an Eagle crank, rods, and Je pistons. The heads are Big Brodix which he sent to AFR to have worked. The transmission is a TH400 with and ATI reverse manual valve body and an ATI 5500 stall. The rear end is a 12 bolt with 32 spline strange axles and a spool. It has to much to list, the car ran 10.30 @ 136 in the summer here in Florida , it was about 90 out, and my buddy is a big guy, he's about 400 ish. So I feel confident it has some high 9's in it as it is, or you can spray it, the motor is bullet proof. It has the potential to go high 8's with the right kit.
The car sounds wicked, its got a 690 ish solid roller Chet Herbert cam, Hooker super comp headers and 3 inch exhaust. look over the pics, and call with any questions, thanks for looking. also, I will separate the engine and trans if interested , I value the combo at 8500 352 494 6913 |

Use this PowerPoint when convincing your spouse to let you buy a Corvette
Thu, 14 Feb 2013When you are not the one in charge of the purse strings, creativity is a must when trying to get the string-holder to bankroll that next shiny object you just can't live without.
When I was a kid, I decided that life wasn't worth living if it weren't in pursuit of owning a GMC Typhoon. My 12-year-old self crafted a fiscal strategy that, when combined with my offer of a 49-percent share of ownership in the car in return for my parents' contribution of 80-percent of the purchase price, would see me behind the wheel of a Typhoon by the time I hit college. They walked away from the negotiating table and, the economic climate of the 8th grade being what it was at the time, another partner wasn't found before the Typhoon was discontinued.
Roy El-Rayes, however, has succeeded where 12-year-old me failed, and he did it by using the sort of professionalism that only a PowerPoint presentation can provide, along with some humor and bold-faced flattery.
C7 Corvette turbo with 1,000 horsepower promised from Hennessey
Mon, 25 Feb 2013If you can't wait for the next-generation Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, Hennessey says they will have you covered. The Texas-based company has announced it will offer a spate of upgrades for the 2014 Corvette ranging from a range of bolt-on options all the way up to a 1,000-horsepower, twin-turbo system. Buyers can start with a cold air intake, cat-back exhaust or stainless steel long-tube headers, but Hennessey says it will also offer up three stages of forced induction mayhem should those bits and baubles not provide enough thrust.
Those choices start with a supercharger system good for up to 700 hp, though Hennessey will gladly ditch the blower in favor of two turbos. Doing so will spin the crank to the tune of 800 horsepower all the way up to a certifiably ludicrous 1,000 ponies. There's no word on how much these tricks will cost you - or when they will be available, as we're guessing they haven't gotten their hands on the car yet - but you can head over to the Hennessey site to drop them a line if you're curious.
Callaway debuts its new C7 Stingray at National Corvette Museum
Fri, 02 May 2014Callaway showed off its first tuned version of the 2014 Corvette Stingray at the National Corvette Museum last week, giving the rampant enthusiasts of America's sports car a look at the roughly 620-horsepower, supercharged rocket.
Unlike the Corvette SC610 we showed you back in January, this Stingray packs a fair bit more oomph. Horsepower is only up ten ponies, but torque has jumped from 556 pound-feet to "at least" 600 pound-feet. Neither horsepower nor torque is official quite yet, although Callaway is expecting to know just what its creation can do once testing and validation is completed later this month.
The 6.2-liter, supercharged V8 now boasts a new, three-element intercooler, which Callaway claims only allowed the inlet air temperature to increase by ten degrees Fahrenheit during dyno runs. Previous designs saw a 35-degree-Fahrenheit jump. The exhaust system has also been fettled with, and now is even less restrictive.
