Who is this 'SPUD' guy, sounds like his a bit of a rocket scientist. If that engine was say in a standard falcon I reckon he'd be all over the shop with those ponnies.

WOW!

That car is awesome. I cant even start to imagine the dollars and hours that went into that.

God. Makes me even sadder that im broke :P But one day. Im still young. You cant have everything all at once. Gotta work hard and plan and dream.

But anyways thats an awesome car and you gotta respect a bloke who puts in the hard yards like that.

That is a really nice Pro street style car.
I wish he had more pics of that XY, it looks a ripper too
you gotta love the combo of huge valves, a carb that flows 1400cfm and a 400 shot of gas.
I imagine he would gain another few tenths with a couple of grand spent on head porting.
Check out the for sale section on his site. That 6bbl manifold would be unreal. I wonder if it flowed?

Great bloke to talk to, has nothing to hide and willing to spend the time with you to explain anything you want. Also he is not scared to drive it either. Was great at the HOLDEN Vs FORD show the other year 90% of people showing their cars there had no idea what it was. : ( stupid people )
