The info I can get right now on it is that it is a 460 Cobra Jet crate motor with 550hp and 535ft lbs of torque. He has the QA1 tubular crossmember and suspension on that one. He also said that it is scary ride on side roads due to it having a lot of punch. That car has 4:30 gears in the back also. Is this enough info or do you want more??

From what I gather it was in the car already when he bought it and the guy he bought it off of is the one that told him what engine it was and so he did research on it. He is very familiar with engines and builds them for his car that he puts on the dragstrip and is waiting till spring to see what that one will do on the track.

Ah, gotcha. What I'm looking to do, is have a street legal drag car. There's nothing better than going for a Sunday cruise and rattling people's windows (and drowning out the rap coming from the car next to me).

Mine's given up on me and the loudness of my vehicles. My old '00 GT, SLT Loudmouth II's. Borderline obnoxious. The car Chris owned, then I bought, and now he owns it again, has the same. The '00 though I think was a little louder. 1/4 down the street my wife would wake up and unlock the door for me at 6am when I get home from work.

It has a hatch just not on due to the guy putting in the rear floor with fuel cell.
