fräääääsig!
No wimpy shocks are used on this ride. Instead, the A-arms are modified
with Pro-Shock coilovers along with 600- pound-rated springs.
Don't let its beauty fool you. Inside lurks a 455 punched 0.030-over to
462 ci with TRW 9.4:1 compression slugs, shot-peened rods, heads machined
and ported by Jim Taylor, a Comp Cams bumpstick holding 0.485/0.485 lift
and 225/230 duration at 0.050, and a fat 800-cfm Quadrajet. Expelling the
fumes are 1-5/8-inch-primary Hooker headers blowing through mandrel-bent
2-1/2-inch pipes and DynOMax Super Turbos. Can you say 375 rear-wheel
horsepower and 500 lb-ft of torque?
When looking for a new pair of sneakers, the Brinks couldn't resist putting
on the American Racing Torque IIs: 17x7s in the front with P245/50R17s,
and 17x9.5s with P305/50R17s on the rear. In order to accommodate such
huge tires out back, the 12-bolt rear was narrowed by 2 inches. Stuffed in
the carrier for heavy-duty service are a set of Moser axles and a posi. Since
this is a cruiser and not a strip brawler, 3.08:1 gears offer a friendly compromise.
Här var det väl kanske inte så rejsigt...
