Back in the 70's I bought a new Chevy Vega off the dealer's lot. Somehow it left the factory with a Camaro air cleaner! Needless to say I was outrunning all the Pintos!

not only would it not pull the wheels off the ground at 340 hp it wouldn't do it at 440 hp and as to beating up mustangs and challangers your talking lighter cars with more hp and a lot better aerodynamics. Even a 6 cyl challenger or mustang would proably run with an ls or hemi powered jk. Nope unless the factory screwed up and put a srt hemi in there along with that computer your blowing hot air.

By the way that 340 crank hp relates to about 260 to the rear wheels. I had a z06 vette with bolt ons that did 430 REAR WHEEL HP ON A DYNO and it would pull the front tires even with drag radials.

Did he ever come back with a follow-up? Has the troll toll been paid?
