Had my mind blown

Ange, theres nothing wrong with 8 blown cylinders of pure pleasure

Exactly right and what I meant, I'm one of the few V8 fans on here

Like I've always said to others, apply some serious technology/mods to V8's and they rule

one of the few V8 fans, pfffff

I love the rumble of a V8 ange, my favourite

Oh that's so nice, reminds me of my old Chev powered XU-1

Poita V8 lovers/fans are few and far between here (and that's fair enough due to the type of forum) most here prefer a 4 pot with a snail hanging off it over anything else

If set up properly for drag duties, you'd be surprised what a tub job, with correct front and rear suspension and a set of slicks can do

My old XU-1 with above mods, would lift the front end nearly 2 feet in the air, with only minimal wheel spin on full launch for a 1/4 run

V8 with a snail hanging of it is much better Ange

Thre is a boat currently doin the rounds with a VG30 and 2 snails on it, sounds awesome, basically 4 foot of piping is the exaust!
