Driveshaft mounted brake rotors?

The 4t65hd can handle reasonable power stock, and can be beefed up, or go for a 4t80. The F40 6mt has been used extensively in the Fiero world behind 3800's and V8's without a single failure that I have heard of, and the Fiero hooks better than any FWD car I know of. If you put it in a longitudinal application you

Buy junkyard l67. Sell supercharger and install l36 intake manifold. Add turbo pushing lots of boost. Enjoy easy 500+ hp.

Yes. And the stock bottom end can take LOTS of boost from a nice turbo. In the Fiero world there are guys making 500+ whp on stock long blocks.

Less than 0.1% of Fieros ever built caught fire. All were 84s. All were due to weak con rods breaking from being run with the oil more than a quart low. The issue was resolved. Ferrari still reigns supreme with regards to self immolation.

The floating issue is resolved with a hood vent to allow the air flowing through the radiator to escape. People have them stable well into triple digits. The v6 was OK for the eighties. A supercharged 3,8 is better.

Maryland doesn't represent all of the lower 48. And this poster is drunk.

I have to climb phone poles with my gaffs in rain, snow, sleet, whatever. 1/4 of an inch of ice coating just means be careful when you're 25 feet up. Not sure what you're talking about. The only places that generally shut down for snow are the places that rarely see it and don't have any kind of infrastructure set

?

HAHAHA!! Fauxrrari gets the last laugh!

Yep, definitely just had the same effect as a rewatch would have.

I would argue that Vanishing Point is the worst ending ever. I am biased, though. I love Two Lane Blacktop and I think Dennis Wilson, James Taylor, and Warren Oates were hilarious in it. It's one of the few car movies I can get my very NOT car guy, super critical film snob little brother to watch with me, and in day

This is a movie that I try to love, even to the point of having watched it more than once, and end up hating it more every time.

Wider than the not Z06.

European. Doh!

I think it's a combination of playing the hip Euro card and BEING Europian and thus mightily intimidated by big vehicles. My brother is married to a Scottish woman and she can drive just fine in a little car, and she sure knows how to handle a manual transmission, but when she visits us here she flat refused to drive

Everyone is whining about the automatic in a hardcore racing car, but with how much faster autos are nowadays, I think the argument could be made that it is the right choice for a hardcore racing car, and going manual is actually the wrong option. Manual is the right option for driver engagement and pure enjoyment,

YEAH! YOU CAN'T BUILD A RACING CAR WITH A TORQUE CONVERTER!!!

My first car was manual. My motorcycle is manual... my current car is a Crown Victoria that I haven't yet converted to 5mt.
