427 small block? :blink:

Of course, a project car is never really done. “I drove it this way for about six years,” Sandy adds, until she had to find some relief to her frustration. “I asked for more horsepower because I had a hard time keeping up with my husband’s car,” she scowled. That frequent occurrence was particularly embarrassing, especially for a Corvette owner, since M.J’s other car is an ’84 Pontiac Fiero. But not just any Fiero—it’s armed with a 650hp engine backed by a drag-racing transaxle. He toyed with the idea of putting a 502 engine in Sandy’s Corvette, but that would have entailed modifying the mounts and headers.

 

“That’s when we decided on the 427 small-block,” M.J. says. “It would be an easy fit and we didn’t have to change the headers and side pipes.” He ordered a bare ZZ4 block with an assortment of special parts, since a crate version wasn’t available. Bored, stroked and clearanced by Elmer’s Engines in Wexford, Pennsylvania, this custom-built mill delivers a lot more horses than either the 165hp ZQ3 or 205hp L82 available in 1975. It’s topped with a Demon 850 carb on a GM dual-plane aluminum manifold, along with aluminum Fast Burn heads actuated by a COMP Cams roller bumpstick. Hooker Headers and side pipes blow out the exhaust gases. The engine is mated to a Turbo 350 automatic with a shift kit and a Hughes 2,500-stall converter. The dramatic increase in power from the 427 kept Sandy happy for a time, but three years ago she wanted to change up the looks with a slight makeover, and had a Stinger Hood installed with a black center and pinstriping, custom painted with a Corvette logo underneath.

In honor of Lemmy... the original muscle bike. This is near identical to the one I had recently for 8 years.

 

Lemmy rode a sporty?? Guys around here call this a girls bike but they came out with some cool versions of it over last few years. I like the looks of it them.

 

Should be a Dyna though in a bad ass thread like this ;)

A truly revolutionary MUSCLE car....http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j223/OldRUSHfan/Vehicles/Vehicles-ChryslerTurbinefront63.jpghttp://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j223/OldRUSHfan/Vehicles/Vehicles-ChryslerTurbinerear63.jpg

 

I got to ride in one of these in '63....the kid two doors down's Grampa was a high muckety-muck at Chrysler, and drove one to his house one night, then loaded us in the car and drove around the neighborhood....didn't sound anything like The Batmobile! (at least the sound Foley artisits added to the soundtrack of the TV show!)

Yes it is! Supposedly killed by the BIG OIL COMPANIES, who didn't like that it could litterally run on alternative fuels that didn't give THEM all our money....

Lemmy rode a sporty in the Killed By death vid.

 

Sports were the the most engine, hardest accelerating Harleys... forget what what the Khahki crowd said.

 

Sportys were were the Camaro of bikes.

Looks familiar. Old school license plates... will say Washington '63 on them. Looks like Lake Union, maybe? Or next to Renton.

Watching the Mecum auction seeing a lot of '69 Camaros, the overhangs on these cars are not bad even by modern standards. I'm also sporting wood.
