well ive finally dyno my mav, i6, c4. bone stock. i thought it would be funny to be the only girl to enter dyno day at local shop. I thought i was gonna win lowest hp award but a dodge colt showed up and beat me. my lil car made 74 hp, 121 ft lbs torque !!! comes to find out too my tranny is slipping, sux. i had a lot of fun, thought i share.
nice car if i still had my 69 bug and if it was still stock i whould be the winner a geo metro cant beat a 1500.sp vw motor like 45 hp and 18mpg
awe sucks guys thanx for the compliments. im still working on my baby. Im gonna do the small bumper swap some day and v8 swap. im also working on the interior. I have to many projects at once. bad spot to be in with a daily driver but i cant help it
Nice car. Learn from Frank (71gold) do a small project, only one at a time, and enjoy your car at the same time. I learned this the hard way. If you tear it apart to far, you can get discouraged and give up
tell me about it. i just regasketed the windows and one cracked the other day from the cold frost we got one night.
Nice rack... I mean dyno rack. Women with cool cars are so hot. Looks like the car is in good shape. Although you may have to work on tweeking the horsepower a little best of luck
lol thanks. its funny, because i ran the car on the dynolicious program on iphone, i had to guess at the weight of the car, but it said i had 64 hp, so it was close. that app isnt to bad.
that's awesome. high hp or not, it's great seeing someone enjoying their car no matter what, and especially of the female gender
O i enjoy it, trust me. ive taken that car to pismo, mountains, race track. Im very happy with it, im hoping one say to improve its hp and other things but one step at a time. I think right now im gonna work on the gettin my passenger seat back into my car, then the bumper swap, then the v8 swap. Im gonna go with 89 roller 302 with built c4. i might put in a 9in. if i can find one. I gotta work on the frotn suspension too, my idler arms r going out. and the spring perches are just about gone lol i have a big battle in front of me. but i will win!
Good looking car, when you do that small bumper swap you can give me the big bumpers...lol Im goin to keep the big bumpers and tuck them a little...for some reason I like driving around with a bench seat bolted to my front end.
