Default 549 whp 2002 Monte

Here's a modded 3.8 litre Monte that you should check out, if you haven't already seen it.

Be sure to also click on the YouTube video link at the top of page 1. Turn on your sound while watching.

I remember seeing this before. He took the car to a shop in Las Vegas that did a terrible job on his car. He had to take it to another shop just to get it running and they fixed all the other shops mistakes. The car is awesome now. A work of art.

That car is crazy, I saw it before on car domain and just drooled all over my keyboard. It sounds like a beastly v8 just idling there, I love it!

Yep, if I remember correctly he's here on MCF, I remember reading a thread about the shop in Vegas. Maybe it was MyMonte?

I remember that story now. That was him? Cool that he got everything straightened out, and working good.

I agree that the car sounds more like a V8. Wonder how well that engine will hold up for durability?

He said its his 3rd rebuild that year. But I guess drag racing would put on alot of strain, unless the other problems were with that story.
