Hey Gary, do you have any more engine pics of the car? I have a bunch saved from long ago, but not many real engine pics.

Also, I have a pic from when you guys were at tahoe, you were working on it, and there was a box sitting next to the crate thing you were useing as a bench, that said 'edelbrock cylinder head' on it.... just a spare box, or something more interesting?

Holy fucking shit, I said that front looks like dooky, due to dodge making it that way. I personally kinda like the rest of the car, oh well, delete me.

I agree with redrt4me on this one the car is awesome, but the stock front end of the 03's are not the most appealing

Got kinda mixed feelings on those newer front-ends. But I want to get my hands on the side stripes.... Maybe a call to John Vigg is in order...

You should just open up the hood and take a picture or two of the engine. People like to see that.

GaryHowell · Post by **GaryHowell** » Sun Jul 04, 2004 2:28 am

I keep forgetting to take the camera with me.

I forgot there was a good picture on Car & Driver

OMG! that motor looks CRAMMED! not that that's a bad thing.

its not, just the intake..... I think

its a freakin 2.7 for goodness sakes

Gary- have you dynod it yet? and how has it been running since C&D test? I heard you killed the clutch or somethin.

RedRT4Me · Post by **RedRT4Me** » Thu Jul 08, 2004 12:19 pm

So how much power does it really make? In your post in the other thread, you said 270. And in the C&D article you claimed 350. Thats Scott Mohler territory. Just curious.

The number has always been 270 whp. C&D estimatedl the number for crank hp from the whp number. Not sure what formula they used. We only gave them the 270 whp number.

RedRT4Me · Post by **RedRT4Me** » Thu Jul 08, 2004 6:06 pm

So, 270whp. That should be good for 11 second time slips. Did you ever take it out again after the first clutch blew up? What clutch are you running now? Inquiring minds want to know.

even if the 270crank hp you should be in at least srt territory? should you even high/mid 13's since that car is alot lighter than an srt

Their slooow 1/4 mile time is because the driver fried the clutch while burning out.

RedRT4Me · Post by **RedRT4Me** » Thu Jul 08, 2004 9:15 pm

No shit, I asked if he replaced the clutch and has he been back to the strip if he fixed it.

Stonebender · Post by **Stonebender** » Sat Jul 10, 2004 7:51 pm

Oh well.

The funny part is, I went over the thread at least three times before I posted that.

12.8@104 is what it ran. It ad some wheel spin because of the camber for road racing.

RedRT4Me · Post by **RedRT4Me** » Sun Jul 11, 2004 9:58 pm

Ouch, got a run down on the slip?

Nightspy · Post by **Nightspy** » Mon Jul 12, 2004 9:15 am

GUESS WHAT EVERYBODY! i saw the Howell car in person @ the Chyslers at Carlisle show. scary lookin' ride, but they could have cleaned it! was dirty as sh*t.
