    May the force be with you. You’ll need it to merge on the interstate.

          I'd like to line one up beside a G-body with the carbureted 3.8 V6 and see which sucks harder to get to 60mph. Probably the 255...

            These would be truly depressing. If i had one i'd have to put nitrous on it to see how bad it still sucked ass and try to blow it up in the process.

                Unless those rings were worn out like Kim Kardashian's minge, I'd expect it to blow up in a hurry haha.

                  Mines pretty solid honestly. Its got the typical lifter tick and could use a cheap cam replacement. I put a new timing chain on it and fuel pump. Thats all ive done. Its got mustang shorties on it though xD so it sound good but is disturbingly slow haha

                        When I first got it in 2011 it was all stock except for a 2bbl carb swap. Before I started "modding" the car I got 20 pretty regularly with country/city driving. im not a leadfoot. Now with 170k were in the 18 or less range
