They were limited production and they're hard to find. I believe the say
that says: technology is the replacement for displacement. But the thing
is, domestics care more about their all-motor cars than the turbos. Now
that the turbos are demanding respect in 2 or 3 liter motors, they're gonna
wanna try it. And when they do, the gap is gonna open right up. >>
There's a f*ckload of GN's where I live, but then again, it's Oklahoma, so
like, there's all sorts of G-Bodies around here (Monte Carlos, GN's, T-Types,
etc... Get it? That's a red neck joke. Hahaha). And, there's nothing with all
motor domestics. Hehe. I know a guy that has a Mustang here with a 514 ci
engine in it. Nothing special, no trick cams, nothing like that. He's running
high 9's with just brute ass big displacement. Then again, there's nothing
wrong with small displacement high tech motors that do the same. They're both
cool. Speed's speed, there's just many ways to get it, ya know?
