well found a car show and seen some monte's there one was a 3rd gen. it stude out like a sore thumb because he has a inline 6 and twin turboed it. he told me before he put on the twin turbo and even thaught to put it in he wanted to do some thing different. so he did all the body and fram work do to it was in a accedent. while it was in the are he took off the frame and put in a new one and set it up for a inline six with 5 speed. first off the thing sounds mean i mean sounds like a v8 but only a i6 on top of that it is quick as hell. he had a dvd and a small screen showing him at a track stomping every thing except a guy in a twin turbo v6 mustang. they both stomped every one but he said they were even. he told me if they kept it up they both would have been band from the track and ran off due to how many people that were mad at them for losing to them. i went for a ride in his monte i wanted to well you know it is a car that can throw you into the seat and great on gas type of monte. ;P

 

oh i forgot the camera thats why the ars

 

LOL I like how you left out the main point in your first post

 

First off, sounds like a cool setup- I always like seeing something different than the usual SBC in all the GM muscle cars.

The guy was pulling your leg. First of all, its not for money, so I don't see why anyone would care- most tracks only have money races for bracket racing- in which case he could get beat just as easily by a 20 second Honda. Secondly, there are a lot of people that go to the track that have much much faster cars- I mean heck, if this guy drives it on the street- I can't imagine it runs much quicker than 9's or 10's (and I'd bet even that's pushing it).

 

thing is i would love to put my i6 that i have siting on a stand in a car and run a turbo setup in it. it's the 4.9 i6 ford made the series 300. i dont know what the chevy i6 is but it is a cool set up to run just to be different. just to run a i6 in a car the torqu just alone even with the hp setup you can do with it. the 300 i took out of my ford truck arter a blow out and roll over i did build it i know it must be pushing decent hp and torqu to boot. is it the torqu that gets you there and hp keeps you there. ;P thats why i like the i motor a little beter than the v style of the v6. ements torqu and pretty good hp a little less moving parts in away. no timing chane only gears the only down side is it is longer than a v6 and just as long as a v8

 

omg i know the feeling man! i hate it when i forgot my camera when i go to car things or really anything that a camera would be useful
