upcoming feature (teaser)

[4dmin]

know what this is??? (if you heard me talking about it this weekend don't post) :goodjob:

[SkrrEuroSportGLI]

It is a carburated engine but I am not sure of the size....with it saying Cobra on it it makes me think of a 427 but not 100% sure

[Repost Squintz]

i heard you talkin about it, but i dont think it was this one?

[A.P. Photography]

from the pic it looks like it is too small to be a 427, more like a 302 turbo'd. Maybe in either a focus or mustang maybe? :dunno:

[BOOSTEDeg]

Hopefully it's a 351 or better, or why bother unless it is in a Focus, Fiesta or Festiva. Could you imagine that thing in a Fiesta??? LOL

[HyPer50]

Upcoming feature, as in, maybe domestic support for IA? lol i know i know, that'll never happen, just a thought. maybe the import fad is dying down lol

[Cliff]

it's gotta be rear engined since the exaust is coming up and backwards and there is a window in front of it...but yea it is waaaaaaaay to small to be a 427 cobra

[carrascopa]

are we changing the name to domestic atlanta.com?

[IndianStig]

Was that in an old Z car?
Im goin with a small block.

[Cliff]

no remember we tried that and it last about a day....but i don't think paul would stray too far so it's prolly a domestic motor in an import...sorta like the rx7 with the ls1 in it in the car pictures section

[IndianStig]

MR2 or a truck?

scratch the Z idea

[HyPer50]

Do MR2's have a window where the engine is? I know my friends 88 mr2 didn't... I'm gonna be a dumbass and say it's a beetle...

[Cliff]

BEETLE good call that does resemble a beetle...exaust set up would be right for a beetle too...

[collins]

was that in that gt40 lookin thing?

[IndianStig]

Beetle is a good call, i just tink the engine compartment is a little too small??

[Big Baller]

was that in that gt40 lookin thing?

Thank god someone is halfway smart around here.

Of course it is a gt40 or some type of midengine sports car, I would assume GT40 by the valve covers and exhaust routing and the placement of the dist.

Eh, I've seen a 427 swap into a beetle, so it can be done.. it just usually comes into the cab a bit. I'm gonna say the motor is a 351.. the deck height looks a little taller than a 302.

[Cliff]

how big do ya think a beetle's engine bay is?

[IndianStig]

just, seems small, cause the car is so slow itself

Umm... are you saying the picture he posted, looks ANYTHING similar to the motor in a Ford GT/GT40?

Dunno... maybe I just dont see the resembelance.

427 is a chevy motor..... its either a 302 or a 351

I KNOW, I KNOW!!! not sure if i'm allowed to tell though....

turbo'd? i see no piping/plenum that could be pressurized on there, just a filter in the open ;).


my guess is some kind of GT40 or an Ultima GTR

[jdmlude]

so what kind of honda is it?

[chuck]

a no go on the mr2 idea...i am thinking rear engine, the exhaust looks like it would be high exit, maybe center too???

[4dmin]

it is domestic and a rare gem, the headers should give it away :goodjob:

couple of you got it right... :thinking:
