[Some Kind Of Monster]

I was going to comment on some of the rediculous parts of his ad, but there are so many!

[Some Kind Of Monster]

Here is my favorite part:
BUILT WITH THE IDEA OF ADDING AN 871 BLOWER AND NITROUS AND STAYING TOGETHER AT 10,000 RPM
BORED 30 OVER,NOW A 460 WITH 10.5:COMPRESSION
LMAO!!!! :D

[CPBRIAN10THMTN]

The sad thing is somebody will believe this retard and expect it to go that fast.

[vee-driven]

by far the best part of his add.
THE ENGINE WAS BLUE-PRINTED AND BALANCED AND BUILT WITH THE IDEA OF ADDING AN 871 BLOWER AND NITROUS AND STAYING TOGETHER AT 10,000 RPM...
you aint putting all that on top of 10.5:COMPRESSION.
hahahahahahahahahhahaahahhahahahahahahahahahahahah ahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah!

[thatguy]

Still, if you ignore the text, even if it is more or less what he says it's not REALLY bad. Be a fair deal around 5K, No?

[SmokinLowriderSS]

What heads should I put on it, I get 500 DD horsepower out of it with 990's. :D

[79centurion]

Maybe it runs on alcohol? Then maybe the blower is possible. The cam wont work though.

[BACK2BIGRIVER]

Look at the way the plug wires come off the distributor that cracks me up.

[79centurion]

How about the hydraulic lines for the diverter:D

[Muldoon]

God I love this forum!

[LynnsJet]

Those aren't any old yellow wires, they are "ACCELL 8.8MM IGNITION WIRIN" How else could he get 800HP from a 460 bbc.
Yes, I also love this forum.

[76ANTHONY]

ummmm does this make sense?
THE OIL CHANGED ABOUT EVERY 15 HRS.
but then i saw this
.SHE HAS A FRESH[10HRS] CHEV. BIG BLOCK WITH EVERYTHING!!
well let me get this straight, it has 10 hours on it and the oil gets changed every 15 hours, hmmmmm:idea: :D
and for a 775-800hp engine, i was thinking it would be more ummmmm organized:D

[ap67et10]

he obviously spent sooo much money on the engine that he couldn't afford transom caps for the exaust and had to stick with the original bells...or maybe thats a speed thing:idea: ...can't believe i never thought of that!!!

[squirt'nmyload]

thats a good lookin boat

[Dreamrr]

I don't no much about boats yet. How fast do these boats usually go?

[LuckyDaze]

I gotta have one!

60 ish.

[Squirtcha?]

I agree with thatguy (above poster)
It's a shame. It's actually a pretty nice little ride. He could just present it for what it really is and do o.k. Not the $7000 he thinks he'll get...........but still pretty good.
Instead..............he's gotta be a liar.

[Dominator Scott]

Did anyone notice the "Hurst" shifter handle he has put on it? I won't even start about his "high performance engine build":rolleyes:
If you insist on lying about a boats speed at least make it believable.

Nuthin says performance like dual vacuum secondary carbs.
There's also an MSD sticker plastered on the back. If I ain't mistaken, I'm looking at one of them POS Mallory unilites. Probably accounts for a good 100HP or so I bet :D

[b's sanger]

I said it before, I need to list my ride on e-bay and get a quick 20mph more.

Hmmn.......AZMandella runs a set of vacuum secondaries on a tunnelram (flattie v-drive) and that thing hauls ass. I watched him run last weekend and he's definitely in the low to mid 90 mph range (at least).
I run a POS Mallory unilite and it works great. Then again it's only been in the boat for 9 trouble free years...........so maybe it'll take a shit on me.:eek:

[CPBRIAN10THMTN]

Its like he read a bunch of BS and took it straight out of a book, this guy has got to be a used car salesman :D hes got 3 bids already haha

Nothing against you, I've had nothing but touble with unilites...and I've had a lot of em. And in the context of the subject, the vac. carb thing just ain't selling me, not to mention it ain't my personal choice on a tunnel setup.
Incidently, squirtcha, I'm running A single vac. carb AND a POS Mallory point dist. But I ain't claiming the performance this guy is.;)

[DMOORE]

I think it's actually a good looking boat. Like what was already stated, If the guy would just be realistic with the numbers, one could have a bit more faith in the other things he says.

[thatguy]

I think the bid is about $2800.00 now, reserve not met. You know, regardless of the sellers BS, if someone scores this for around 5K they will be getting what looks like a fun ride. In fact, once sorted out and fact seperated from fiction, all of a sudden someone will be a "Lucky B*sturd" on this same thread. Probably will be offered in the spam with a realistic description and everyone will like it.
Shame the guy is an idiot, or a car salesman, but someone will get a fun boat. And lets face it, a real racer knows better, and 70mph IS 100mph to anyone who's never done it.

800HP http://www.mwstangs.com/forums/images/smilies/nonono2.gif
Maybe 550 HP if there is the magic juice in that motor. With those spring pressures he is floating the valves at 4800rpm.
Yeah - the wire loom job is trick ;)

LOL, I've seen several boats on Ebay recently with a Hurst T-handle shifter in it. :rollside:
