Engines Stolen
 

Everyone here have an abili?

Why can't you put them in a regular car?

Nope no abili here. :sneaky:

All my money is on it being another NASCAR entity, like Toyota or GM. Definitely sounds like competition trying to see what Roush is using.

Probaly something like motor mount location or bellhousing bolt pattern or something like that.

wow 50 grand for each motor. thats a lot of scratch.

I think the blocks dont have oil filter bosses or fuel filter bosses or engine mounts. They use a dry sump oiling systems and motor plates.

im putting one in my saturn shhhh

What is DaSkinnyGuy's alibi?

BS, you could get one into a car with the same relative ease of sliding in any other swap.

Text was already sent :-P

Is he really going to put a Ford motor in that T/A?

:shock:

Who knows, maybe they converted him from believing that the LS1 was created by the hand of god. He was talking a lot about Mustangs lately. :nod:

Maybe he bought the T/A as a decoy to throw us off

:shock:

If you remember, he didn't even buy it! It was a grad gift, and the stipulation was that he would sell his 92 bird!

I found out about this in school yesterday.

So....




you weren't the mastermind?



How did you make the hole in the wall?

A getaway car

:shock:

Steve, does this mean you retract your statement about GM/Toyota stealing it? :lol: Hmm the 17th. I believe Matt was "at work" at that time.

Maybe he's a triple agent

:shock:

He HAS been saying he wants to buy an ls6 intake, ported TB. and GMMG exhaust, but doesn't have the money yet. :twisted:

Maybe thats to throw us off and he really has spies following us

:shock:

I wouldnt want those motors. All i need and its what i have is a motor that will last a long time and get the job done when it needs to be. those motors are designed to run wide open for 500 miles and they usualy crap out during the victory donuts.

Edit: if those motors were good for street use then they would be the crate motor to have. But yes the price is high but still.

If you can help Mooresville Police, call them at 704-664-3311, or South Iredell Crime Stoppers at 704-658-9056. If your information leads to an arrest, you be eligible for a reward.



read the last 6 words...lmfao

Iredell county cops dont do anything. We have people rob the cvs i work at and it takes at least 30mins for cops to show up. Ive crusied by cops here and they just wave to you.

theyre only made to last 500 miles. they wont last, not to mention theyre not made for low speed, stop and go driving. just like a big time, dedicated drag race motor cant do the same. its all out or nothing.

True. Running one is a bad idea, but that implies that it can be done in the first place. I think Steve is right about installation, but you are at NTI... any ideas on actual installation?
