| Here's a popular power plant that Funco buys from a local engine supplier.
These are delivered to Funco with harness and computer, ready to run.
Talk about absolute raw, in-your-face power and torque! Yes, the
Cadillac Northstar V8 is quickly becoming the meanest and coolest sounding
engine in the dunes. Available new from GM in the crate for around
$6-7K, this motor can make you wet your pants. If you don't know already, this
high tech V8 motor has 32 valves (4/cyl), overhead cams, fuel injection, all encased
in an
all aluminum block with a computer to run it. You can't get much more trick than this, unless of
course you bolt on a supercharger.... yikes!

| With extensive engineering and test we have solved all the issues of
adapting V8 motors within our BIG 5 and
Hustler frames.
We have incorporated some super trick motor mounts to harness the torque and
power of the most powerful V8's available to keep it within the chassis.
You don't have to worry about stress fractures from all the torque, as seen on other cars.
With our optional air spring suspension the spring rate adjustment is as
simple as pumping in air to accommodate the weight of your passenger load. And
for V8 applications such as this one shown our shocks are specially tuned
to handle the extra weight of these mondo motors.
Ground pounding power is what you'll get
here. Be careful !
There are variety of Chevrolet crate motors available, such as
LS1 and LS6 aluminum small block displacing
350CI, offering almost 400HP with no modifications. |
