Clean break at least. I had Dutchman axels in a Chevy rear and when it broke it shattered. Messed up the whole works. I had a factory axle snap before that and it broke clean just like that. Did she torque over and head for the wall or just go dead? With my solid axle she torqued over real bad.
First class install. Very nice! Good luck, hope this thing works as good as it looks. If it does you prob got them some business from here alone. If they use your car on their site as a poster advertisement for success maybe you can work out a gratis deal.
Have to agree. I don't do anything with my hobby or passion from a money angle. It's pure love/enjoyment of the vehicle. That's not to mean you should be a complete irresponsible ass and spend twice what a car's worth or burn your money etc.,(or even make some money by weel'n n deal'n within the...
You said u snapped an axle this weekend in another thread. What did you run before that with the exhaust off and other stuff removed.? Or did she let go right out of the gate, cause I didn't see anything posted after you showed pics.
Could you imagine what would happen to used HC values if the RE became the standard engine in all HC's, TH's, and HC Durango's because they didn't want to carry production and tooling for both engines?
But wait. I thought according to the 'World's greatest drag race' by those automotive journalists of great authority, the RE runs 11.77 ? :unsure: . I mean as soon as I read that I turned my RE in and ordered a new GT500.:sick:
Have been reading this thread and "taking it all in" as they say. I have to add my .02 at this point (because I know everyone cares. LOL). And that is this, back in the day Chevy made @50 427 aluminum block Camaro's for homologation in a stock racing classification under a special COPO order...
I came in after he left but that makes sense to me. I don't think a guy on the 'inside' would put himself on the line like that unless something was cooking at the time. For whatever reason (cost, emissions, both? upgrades needed to support the 1000hp) it took turn away from the hellaphant.
That's why I personally made the jump to new muscle. I loved my '57 Chevy but to get it to the level I personally wanted, it would've cost me another 20G's easy and taken a few years to complete. Plus it wouldn't have been as drivable or practical in the end to boot. And I'm 54 not 41. It was...
Just caught this thread myself. Great story and beautiful car. The Barton will really enhance the M6 driving experience. Nice work on the inserts btw, love unique personal touches on a car. Good luck with her!
@SilverBillet there are no special requirements. @ChargerChallenger yes you are correct but those fees apply to all new cars at any price. As @Jack_Toepfer said....quite a bargain. How much would the RE hard parts alone cost (Complete motor, tranny, driveshaft, rear diff, axles, Brembo...
Going dedicated race car? or you just taking the exhaust and cats off temporarily(and sway bar, seats etc.) for weight and backpressure reduction for experiment to see what happens.
Was looking at Redeye prices to see what was going on. Got on E-bay and looked. Then I went to Koons website where I bought mine last month. They have them as low as 59K NEW. Same car, same options, (stripper) same color (B5 blue) as mine was 62K at the beginning of December with mine. They only...
