So, while browsing the web tonight I came across some pictures from a local car gathering. There were several pictures of a drag-prepped ti that looks like it has a twin-turbo small block Chevy V8 swapped in. I was kinda curious if anyone here recognized the car in the picks or knew if the owner might be on here. Looks like I know where I'll be spending my Wednesday nights next summer.  I should note, the gallery I got these from is here (1320video.com). Full size pics can be downloaded there, or I have copies of them.

There appears to be a passenger seat in there. I hope to be able to get a ride in the thing.

Awesome, I like the strut tower deletes. I guess he had to make room for the turbos somewhere. __________________ ~Dave~

Motors are chunks of metal with other smaller chunks of metal flying around inside them. __________________ No more ti. | | | | | |
