1986 Chevrolet Flame Big Block Rat Rod Race Van on 2040-cars
Coatesville, Pennsylvania, United States
|
Regretfully listing my 1986 Chevrolet G10/G20 Van. Started with a spotless 90k chassis and began the build. Started by having the frame and body media blasted and then resprayed with respective undercoating and 2 stage base clear uni black urethane with clear coat. Hand laid flames. Chassis has a custom ladder bar rear suspension setup to handle the 600+hp. Narrowed 9" rear with 4.10 gears to fit the mini tub slicks in the rear. For the engine I chose a good 454 big block bottom end and had the entire motor built @ Spyder Prep Racing Heads of Coatesville, PA. They hot tanked the entire block, magna fluxed it for any cracks or other issues, painted the block and then proceeded with final assembly. 454 stock bore was increased .060 over to 4.310 final bore and installed custom spec high compression pistons along with a hydraulic Roller Cam, Mobile Port Heads and Manifolds, Holley 800 Double Pumper, 468 Stroker crank with a final stroke of 4". For the trans I sourced a brand new GM Turbo 400 big block trans and had it built to handle 600 hp with a shift kit. The suspension is a custom coil over suspension with a rear eaton posi differential. Weld Wheels in polished aluminum. Tires have decent tread but are 7 years old and could use replaced as they are becoming hard. Upgraded Camaro front disc brakes.
Full Custom Roll Bar install to compliment and work with the tubbed rear. Motor on a conservative pump gas tune made 613 whp and over 670 lb ft of torque. To say this van is insane is an understatement. The van is currently registered and insured and driven in PA. It is emissions exempt for me as I drive it less than 2000 miles a year. Please consult your states inspection laws for safety and emission equipment. |

Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]
Sun, 26 Jan 2014If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.
Corvette Stingray Convertible images mysteriously appear on web, so we add our own
Tue, 22 Jan 2013It was inevitable that we'd see the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray topless at some point, but that didn't make us any less interested when a pair of supposedly leaked official images showed up on theautoinsiderblog.com last week. We posted them on our Facebook page, but held off reporting on them here until we could get a little more information.
Those images, which feature a dark red car on a sterile black studio background, supposedly first appeared on the website of diecast model maker Maisto. A Chevrolet spokesman has been reported saying that they are "not official images released by Chevrolet PR," which isn't a denial they're the real deal, but neither is it a confirmation.
Close examination of the photos suggest they could be official shots of the Corvette Stingray Convertible, and while some have doubted their authenticity due to a lack of vents (which were seen on the C7s that debuted in Detroit last week), it could be that the images are of a base model car without the Z51 package that doesn't require the extra venting and cooling.
2013 Chevy COPO Camaro announced with two new engines and manual option
Thu, 07 Mar 2013Chevrolet is following up the 2012 COPO Camaro with another limited run of the drag-strip-ready production car for 2013. Ditching the superchargers, the 2013 COPO Camaro can only be equipped with one of three naturally aspirated V8 engines, and other new features include the option of a manual transmission, new front springs, some minor styling changes and a lower starting price of $86,000. All cars are designed to abide by the rules of the NHRA's Stock Eliminator or Super Stock classifications, depending on in which series buyers wish to enter their Chevrolet Camaro.
Returning for 2013 is the 427-cubic-inch V8 producing 425 horsepower, but the new engines include a 325-hp 350-CID V8 and a 375-hp 396-CID V8. Buyers can select to purchase all three engines, and each will be matched with the sequence number of that car; the track-only COPO cars will not have vehicle identification numbers and can't be registered for street use.
Chevrolet is also offering unique enthusiast-specific options such as a COPO Build Book and the opportunity for owners to help assemble their car's engine at the Chevrolet Performance Build Center in Wixom, MI.
