That car looks like it had the 420a in it. That would be my guess because the fuse box is on the wrong side of the car. Is this right? I was just curious, as I have not seen the 420a in person.
-------------------- Thanks, Bud!

QUOTE (RacerX11 @ Jul 13 2006, 08:13 PM) The offset bolt holes and plaque look right to me, but maybe that is because I can actually visualize and comprehend in 3D (No glasses required). Is a Northstar Talon that hard to swallow? So when you "visualize 3D" distances change? I understand the perspective being different but a bolt will not appear closer to the plaque because you move 6 feet to the right. There are plenty of othe little items (blurry pixels, brigthness differences, sharp eges, etc...) that indicate some editing work, but I am sure if you are a believer you will discount them as well. As far as hard to swallow... I have seen some nude Britney Spears pics online that look pretty good, and I want to believe, but when you see the blurry pixels around her neck all hope is lost  What is the story on these pics since you posted them? -------------------- Fast & Furious on the outside...DSM under the hood!!!

It is quite clear you don't understand perspective. Oh well. I'll let you waste more of your time trying to convince us these pics are fake.

I want the story... I'm sure that you have had a ride in it right? With that big ass wheel that will allow for 20 degree turns...
I am not going to invest any more time in it because you are either so narrow-minded that you can look through keyhole with both eyes, or you are screwing with me. -------------------- Fast & Furious on the outside...DSM under the hood!!!

But I don't need a ride to believe it. Story is, a guy had a Talon with a 420A, and wanted to swap in a Northstar. I guess you are too narrow-minded to believe this swap is possible. I will post more pictures when I get them. |

QUOTE (AWD DSM 1 @ Jul 14 2006, 01:19 AM) I can see the subframe under it too... nothing says it's a running car I guess. My biggest question is WHY? When you can build the stock turbo motor to make more power than that caddy motor, why go through the trouble? NO YOU DITN't! If I weren't trying to keep my Talon in a pristene stock like appearance I would LOVE to shoe-horn a V8 into that bitch. I'd like to do a Dave busher RWD but with a big bad V8 stuffed in there with a tactfull yet menacing scoop on the hood to create curiosity. In fact that Caddy motor and transmission would be better at the rear axle. Take everything but steering and suspension from the front and use the torque in the V8 to drive wheel stands down the road. Oh Yeah! There's nothing wrong with ingenuity. Shiat...if it's turbos you love there room for two on the V8! Let's get a shell and Frankenstien one up.

Ok so we could use that old auto Talon of Mitsu90 or any one of the hundreds of shells that Treydawd has had laying around...
But no one want's to bite off something like that? Why did this thread die? Even Marty (RacerX11) got quiet! You got the mad tight welding skillz Marty! Let's do this thing. Well after I get a boat, 3 cars, and a pool all put together. Then I'm wide open.

I do believe scrapinframe has a manual AWD. If that would be better or not?

Let's do this thing. Well after I get a boat, 3 cars, and a pool all put together. Then I'm wide open. I am in the same boat as you, Marcus. I have three project cars lined up to be finished. One of which is stuffing a V8 into a small car, so I don't really need another. I am willing to provide technical expertise if people are serious about doing this. |

That V8 into a small car wouldn't by chance be the Northstar project would it?

I just get a little crazy when people get a too extreme IMO on keeping a car as designed or are afraid to tinker. We can build it better, faster and stronger, without the restraints of pleasing the general public for higher sales numbers. Make it your way. You CAN DO IT... ALL NIGHT LONG!
